If you want serious strength, you need to try out Jim Wendler’s 5/3/1, the number one chosen program for off-season NFL athletes.

Basic Structure of 5/3/1

5/3/1 works by using your 1 Rep MAXand using percentages of that 1RM to periodize monthly linear gains – for each of the following lifts: Deadlift, Squat, Bench Press, OHP. 5/3/1 takes the guess work of how much weight you should lift and how many reps you should do for that workout. Assuming your Squat’s 1RM is 315lb. you will be working up to 265lb (85%) for 5 or more reps, in week 1. Here’s a basic template:
