Sounds crazy... Feels ****ing awesome. I'm moving through week 1 right now and only getting maybe one joker set each workout thus far but holy shit is the pump killing it. Dialing in my lifts as well with all the volume. Going to give this a full 13 weeks and see what happens. Anybody done the 8/6/3 version of 5/3/1?

Joker sets are if you achieve more the set reps with top set weight then add 5 to 10% until you cannot achieve a full set again.
Ex. 255x8 you get 9
Joker set- 270x8 attempt.
You get 6... No more joker sets.

Gonna start doing some joker sets. So if my goal is 135 x 8 for a joker set...and I get 135 x 8...I keep moving weight up until I fail to hit 8 reps?
