Strength Estimates 5-3-1 Numbers Made Easy

FAO The Coli Muscle & Strength Gang,

Currently been running various versions of 5X5 for the last 12-14 months.... I'm looking to jump on Wendlers 5-3-1 program come end of March/ Early April...came across this sick website that makes life much easier for when it comes to calculating rep /set schemes.....

So yea, thought I'd share the LINK

I like this website, puts me as intermediate + on everything. My Bench press is bang on intermediate, squat slightly above, dead lift half way between intermediate and advanced and overhead press about the same.


Enjoy Muffukas

I'm definitely looking to hit 5-3-1 after my holidays/ finish off last 5X5 cycle, the strength gains on that set-up are immense as I've literally seen two geezas at my gym who were on it (still are) & now are regularly repping:

3PPS benches
5PPS DL's
4.5 PPS Squats

So yea I'm sold on it as I've been reading up on it on various forums! So yea got that quest for strength & size on lock down come March/April timezzz
