I think you may be reading a bit into what I'm saying, though. Like I tried to point out in the strength versus hypertrophy thread at some point you have to separate strength training from hypertrophy training in one way or another. The idea that it's best or necessary for EVERYONE to do that is seriously misguided, though, if that is what you mean.

5x5's only work for both for when you are still at a level of development that you don't "need" more specific strength training. But we're kidding ourselves if we think 5x5 is "optimal" of pure strength. Or pure hypertrophy.

Hmmm....I guess I need to be more specific than just to say you don't have to have a hypertrophy phase..

But given that, I think you are seeing my point in general.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
