Good luck mate. Thinking of doing a 5x5 for close grip bench myself, and then for strict press when I add it back in. How are you setting it up, same weight for all 5 sets or ramping up to 1 top set of 5?

Just some stuff about me:
20 years old
191cm
100kg
Currently a rubgy player looking to experience other strength and power sports

My training split is going to look like this:
MON Squat
TUES Overhead Press
WED Rest
THURS Deadlift
FRI Bench
SAT Rest
SUN Rest

Not gonna include too many assistance exercises as i have 3 weights sessions a week for rugby focusing on total body hypertrophy and power so i'm concerned about overtraining.

its a progressive 5x5 so going up in weight over the 5 sets in 5kg increments and the weights go up each week. looks pretty good. got the excel template if you want it?

Really annoyed i failed the last rep of 95 on push press, didn't get enough leg drive.

i want to put in some close grip bench to help the OH pressing. you guys think it would be better to include it on this day or the bench day?
