Trust me Friday is perfectly situated to give you tremendous progress. It is more than "enough". Like I said before this is WEEKLY LOADING. I cannot stress that enough. Friday is designed to be higher intensity and much lower volume than Monday. That way it reinforces Monday's gains and helps spur progress. There is probably not a better way of doing a 5x5, period.
All this leads me a question though. If you feel Friday is not enough and also you haven't worked at the upper parameters of intensity like that before, are you sure you wouldn't benefit from a runthrough with a beginner's program? That way you would try to load the bar each and every workout for a while on a strictly linear basis. Certainly wouldn't hurt and could be the best gains you ever made.
