Overview
The 5/3/1 program focuses on basic multi-joint lifts (Squat, Bench Press, Deadlift, Overhead Press) and progressive overload using submaximal training.
💡
Pro Tips
Always use a Training Max (90% of your actual or estimated 1RM).
Don't skip the Deload week; it's essential for long-term recovery.
Focus on the '+' set - it's your chance to set a repetition PR.
Consistency is more important than immediate high intensity.
