    Rip,

    I've been doing 5x5 for some time now and its built decent lifts (I'm around a 400 for the squat and 500 deadlift) but I'm finding myself flattened by the volume, especially in the squat.

    Can you suggest some modification I can do to the program? I'm not competing and dont feel that I'd warrant an advanced program.

    Maybe there will be some information in that book that could help you with this problem.
