My New Work-out Program

I recently changed my workout program. It used to be as follows:

Day 1 - Chest and Biceps

Day 2 - Back and Triceps

Day 3 - Legs, Shoulders and Abs

Now, I integrated the 5x5 program whole body workout which also has a 3-day cycle. It is called 5x5 because you only do 5 reps for 5 sets, although the weight that you'd use is 5RM (the heaviest weight that you lift for 5 reps).

Day 1 - Bench Press, Squats and Rows

Day 2 - Military Press, Deadlifts, Squats, Pull-ups

Day 3 - Bench Press, Squats and Rows

Since I integrated it, I supplemented the 5x5 program with my previous program. So if I'm doing day 1 of the 5x5, I will add some chest and biceps workout and so on. I'm thinking this is really effective because the muscles always hurt after workout.

Who put this program together for you? Why do people associate muscle “hurt” or “pump” with progress? I could probably think of a thousand different programs to make you sore, puke, or hurt. Does that make my program effective? Probably not! Let me know if you ever have any questions regarding speed, strength, hypertrophy, endurance, or lackthereof.
