Wendler 531 for 2011

After my last 531 cycle I hurt my right shoulder and had to take it easy on benching and OHP for awhile...was able to move my squat to 475 but failed on a 545 dealdift the day after Thanksgiving. I did pull 495 for a double, which equates out to something close to 545. I'll go for a PR again after this cycle.

Think I'm going to go with BBB and mix it up just a little.

SOHP:5-3-1
5 sets 10 reps at 50%
BB shrugs
Either light DB side raises(my shoulder really like these for strength) or tri extensions

Squat: 5-3-1
5 sets 10 reps at 50%
GHR or RDL

Bench: 5-3-1
5 sets 10 reps at 50%
DB rows

Deadlift: 5-3-1
5 sets 10 reps at 50%
GHR or rack pulls

Start with deadlifts tomorrow. See how it goes!

Current stats: 260lbs, 475(425) squat, 320(290) bench, 505(455) dead, 205(185) OHP
