I like those two. both are about starting lighter, paying attention to form. both include compound movements. 3x3 looks rough, i dont think i could do 3x on the big 3... youll be suprised real guick when you are pushing weights.... oh yeah, but the 3x3 starts easy/nice, it is functional. by having your body see an increase in size/weight each week, it is pushing itself. if you read more it is more complicated than you think, each phase has different sets/reps, and differesnt grips.
Oh, the 5x5, from the looks, it is a split, but you do an add 5 per week on major moves. go till ya meet a plateu, then go max effort 3xfor afew weeks... after rereading it, its a nice learning. yup, i like it.
oh, and the setupt is not hitting same day after day, its a split.
this is ripped from it:
Day 1 chest/calves
day 2 back/shoulders
day 3&4 rest
day 5 bis/tris
day 6 legs

Oh, and back to old syuff. originally, i leanred/followed muscle & fitness and mens health mags. I was a cookie cutter look at the routine, do it. An I tell ya, I didnt change for a while. I did my own thing durring college, had a bench in out basement, and my roomie would bench with me. I was still doing the same weight, spinnin my wheels. Luckily I have learned much over the past year. my brotherdidnt change his diet, I did. now Im coming up on a 6r, and he is the same. He finally wrote down what he has been eating the past few days. We will talk about it workin out ( most of te time we dont talk, just ask how many sets, we are in the zone and listeniive you a n to music) . OK, im done. Start wit 5x5 id say, just to give ya a split. Then work on diet. Diet is 80-90% of what happens. I have been cutting for a while now. Ive been gainin strengt just because Im hunry, but you gotta eat ta grow.

OK, gotta go to da bar. Oh, the Tyson fight sucked, but hes alrit, definately changed over the years.
