Seems like that doesn't it?
I do this from time to time, but like I said, inspired by the Olympics I don't want to mess around any more. I love lifting big, that's a given. With BBB I also get some conditioning/hypertrophy.
 
You could look into doing other bodybuilder stuff alongside/instead of BBB. Personally, I'd choose replacing it for other exercises because it really bored me.
 
I could really use the conditioning it provides right now, I could only finish 4 sets of BBB squats last night, even that was a struggle. I was on the floor gassed between sets!

Tonight is bench press and kroc rows.

Some good news in the mobility department.. I can now hold the bar on my back with straight wrists for a squat! Major success! I can even just use the palms of my hands.
 
Just remember to address long term adherence, that's all I'm saying ;)

Kroc rows are beastly. Treat them like a 20 rep set of squats for ultimate awesomeness. They became such a full body exercise that I ended up with tricep DOMS.

Nice mobility progress!
 
Yea, I'll probably end up swapping around BBB but plan on keeping the 531 main lifts progressing nicely.

20 reps each side sounds brutal !
 
Mother of god kroc rows! Couldn't get near the desired volume..

Also tweaked my left pec a tad, pretty annoying but nothing serious.

Bench
WU - 55x5, 67.5x5, 80x3
WS - 87.5x5, 102.5x5, 115x11
BBB - 67.5x10 x5

Kroc Rows (per arm)
35x20, 42.5x20, 42.5x10
 
Pump was pretty strong!

Appetite is down today, must have really hit my body hard the past couple days. Today and tomorrow are rest days then I'm in the gym Fri/Sat.
 
Aye. Slowly but surely :) Tried the seated cable row last night as well, pretty good.

I have tremendous doms all over today, painful, but amazing :p
 
Wasn't feeling it tonight, but some how still managed to perform a decent + set. Also managed to smash out the BBB sets without dying like I did last week.

531 Squats
WU - 65x5, 80x5, 97.5x3
WS - 112.5x3, 130x3, 145x10
BBB - 80x10 x5

Leg Curls

45x10, 52.5x10 x3, 45x10
 
Im starting to feel the DOMS from my BBB squat set this morning, does feel good though. Might be sticking with them permanently, for squats atleast.
 
They're really good, great for conditioning. After you've gotten used to them you'll want to increase the % a bit to keep you working hard.
