Agree with this 100%.

You posted your progress thread 2 months ago and you're already looking for a new program. You've made decent strength gains for 2 months, you need to be patient, work on form and grind it out. You arent going to go from sub 900 total to 1000+ in a month.

On the 2nd cycle my deadlifts at no point were challenging, squats barely as well, but my bench just failed it's just going to repeat itself in phase 3 and onwards bench progressing at the same rate as squats and dreads is just silly

Sounds like you chose an appropriate percentage to start with on squats and deadlifts.

It also sounds like you chose an overzealous percentage to start with on bench press.

Check out jonnie canditos latest bench program

3 weeks of benching everyday 5x week then taper

Could continue PNP for squat and deadlift and do the bench routine simultaneously

Edit: its not for beginners tho

I will try this and get back to you.

5x5 boring af.

I was most conservative with bench, the program has all the lifts upping evenly :/

A lot of people at my gym are coaches who compete at worlds, try always give me pointers and I don't think I need that level of coaching currently

I've had to deload twice on mine (it's the protocol) and everytime my bench fails the required reps, I don't feel like repeating that, as my deadlift and squat aren't moving too much because of these constant deloads.

Not looking for something like starting strength/stronglifts, something more powerlifting oriented with more deadlifts less ohp/rows.

Looking to PR 5lbs? maybe a week, and have a day with 1-3 reps where I pr, anything like this for beginners?

my total is just under 900lbs currently, I want something that'll carry me through to a 1,100 total

also don't care too much about bench progression, that lift is shit and I hate it.

But this whole thread is about how you do care about bench progression??
