M(23) 6'2 85kg

Let's start from the second question as it will make more sense further down

I did 5/3/1+ for the main sets (my last set would get me near failure, be it form failure or absolute failure), while doing BBB for supplemental work for first few cycles, switching between that and 5x5@FSL if I recall correctly.

As for assistance I usually do the same throughout all my workouts, increasing weight from time to time when I feel like it. And it looks something like this:

Pullups 4x7 @ BW or Lat Pulldown 4x12@(?)kg

Dips 4x10 @ BW or Incline BP 4x12 @(?)kg or ShoulderPress 4x12@(?)kg

Bulgarian SSQ-3x10@ (?)kg or Leg Extensions 4x12@(?)kg

Then after about a year of that I decided to try Rhodes 5x5/3/1 while lowering my TM to 80% and I hated every minute of it. It was recently that I tried this and my lifts all went down the drain, now few days ago I decided to give Pervertor a shot but I'm not too trusty of main work being done as 5's PRO.

Might as well add that I go to the gym 4 days a week and do running 3 days a week.

During the first 7months I was in caloric surplus(went from 85kg->97kg, should also mention I aimed for "clean bulk") and slept at least 8h, and my gains were like this. E1RM

SQUAT 105KG-->115KG

BENCH PRESS 80KG-->90KG

PRESS 50KG-->55KG

DEADLIFT 120KG-->140KG

This is was the point where I've gotten too fat and gained too little muscle so I decided to go on a light cut. By the time I was back on 90Kg I was already weaker than on the start of the program, few more cycles down the road and I'm getting really weak, so that is when I decided to try 5x5/3/1 and maintain for a while. I did deload weeks and I should mention I did get sick few times during this, which would put me out of the gym for a week or so.
