I got a friend who does crossfit and training to be a PT to write me some programs. They're good but I found there were too many movements with weights and it was a bit much (with playing football/cycling etc). I cut the volume and weights of them down and added in some more unweighted exercise (boxjumps, battle ropes, bosu ball pressups etc).
I've just started the gym once again after 6 months training for an Iron Man that never happened. I'm finding it hard to get back into the rhythm of things. I'm happy with my lifts (DL:260 SQ: 220 B: 160) so continuing 5x5 is not that alluring. I'm thinking of trying a Crossfit style program to help with my endurance and maybe mix in some pilates/yoga as my flexibility is poor.
