Hey /fit/, I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with SL 5x5 as I have been doing it for a few months now and occasionally feel as if there's room for some accessory work, aside from the pullups and dips the program recommends (which I do anyway).

Are there any specific body parts the program sort of neglects? I was thinking calf raises and reverse flyes might be beneficial.

check out ICF. It's basically the same thing with a bunch of accessories

Accessories in SL are meant to fix muscle imbalances, like if your hamstrings are weaker way over than your quads then you must add lying leg curls, SLDL, etc. since that would stop proper linear progress.

SL is a strength routine for begginers, although you can push it to intermediate strength standard level or even advanced, depending on your goals.

Adding accessory work just because it only means you are trying to turn a strength routine into a hypertrophy one to look good, on which case you should be looking for another routine

I've heard a bunch of people say SL neglects this and that (lower back is often mentioned).
I'm not necessarily looking for isolation exercises, but just wondering if the routine misses something.

you build strength with SL.

Best measure of strength is how much you can lift with compounds. SL trains compounds
