    F:
    Squat 5x5 (Intensity : 5rm)
    Bench 5x5 (Intensity : 5rm)
    Row 5x5 (Intensity : 5rm)

    I don't really get the 5x5 to much I wanna do something like this



    Monday : Medium Intensity for compound, lighter intensity for isolation exercises
    Wednesday : light intensity for compound, lighter intensity for isolation
    Friday : hardcore intensity for compound and isolation (Faliure)

    I wanna take the volume and intensity into account and rest intervals. I also want to hit every muscle that I have on my body but I need help putting this together. I would like this to be my next program

    You can do 10 dead hang pullups? 5x5 is pretty advanced. You might want to start with regular 3x fullbody per week.

    And friday consists of ramped sets usually in 5x5.

    5x5 is pretty much meat and potatoes. There's no isolation work or targetting of all the muscles.

    Monday is 5x5 volume with 6-8RM. Volume.
    Wednesday is same with slightly different exercises but very light. 10RM is fine. Deload.
    Friday is 5x5 with ramped sets so basically 1x5 with something very near your 5RM. Intensity.

    You could add isolation work, but it's not necessary.
