1. Beyond 5/3/1
Simple Training for Extraordinary Results
A practical, experience-driven manual that expands on the core 5/3/1 strength template into multiple templates and variations, providing detailed progression schemes, assistance options (including Boring But Big, Joker and PR sets), and sample cycles for different goals such as strength, size, conditioning and sport-specific work; it emphasizes simple, consistent training built around the big lifts, using a conservative training max, smart accessory choices, recovery and habit formation, and offers troubleshooting and programming advice for intermediate-to-advanced lifters.
