5x5 puts a lot of emphasis on squats then only 4 other movements.

BP, OHP, Rows and Deadlift.

The system, as TGR says, knows that you will fail at some point and works the failure in. I have confidence in it and will just keep plugging away.

It will make you stronger for sure, but it's not designed to bring up relative weaknesses.

If you are happy with results that's what matters. For me a general approach stopped working after a while that's all :)

My legs are stronger because they have been supporting my fat arse for most of their life.

I've lost upper body strength since I stopped being a Roadie for a living. Surprising what pushing flight cases up ramps does for chest and arms!
