That would be an OK way for a slow progression but I don't think it's something that would work for this. What I was getting at was building up to the 5x5 that way and then sticking with it and loading. What some people have lost on this is, besides the need to perhaps drop volume sometimes, there is supposed to be a much greater contrast between Mon and Fri. Anything could work but sometimes things work by accident so who knows. It's funny how monday is sometimes called volume intenstiy but so many of you guys seem intent on keeping the volume out of it.
OK cool Im with you,I would definately have to drop the weight back though, gettin 5x3 at my old 3rm is VERY hard!! let alone 5x5

What kind of problem with your back?
Just keeping the chest up was my worry,its a queue I need to remind my self of for all my lifts!

You pretty much nailed it eric, I knew i was getting behind the bar a bit, when I start in that better position I was worried my legs straighten without the quads moving any weight.Ill work on it and get another vid up prolly next week!
