    No, but I'm pretty much just planning on overhauling my entire routine and doing more stuff with the barbell now. Tbh, I've never even done legit bench press, always used dumbbells.

    You do a 5x5 with bench?

    You do a 5x5 with bench?

    Here's my routine

    Workout A
    Squat 3x5
    Bench 3x5
    Pendlay Rows 3x8
    Face Pulls 3x10
    Calf raises 2x15/Tricep pressdowns 2x10 Superset

    Workout B
    Front Squat 3x5
    Overhead Press 3x5
    Romanian Deadlift 3x8
    Lat Pulldowns 3x8 (any grip)
    Ab work 2x15/Bicep curls 2x10 Superset

    Substituted lat pull for bent over row
    Substituted face pulls for reverse flyes
    Substituted tricep press down with barbell tricep extension

    Because I'm doing bent over and pendlay row, there's a huge improvement to my back musculature.

    I added in lateral raises today

    So you on that full body workout huh, I'm still on PPL even 3 months in and it's working good for me, though my workouts been getting longer. I'll try 3x5 instead of 5x5 with my bench and squats since it's getting very difficult for me and struggling to finish my sets all the way through.

    I'm glad you're progressing though
