I know its tempting to try something new, but milk linear progression to its maximum extent possible. I ran bill starrs for almost 18 months. Is it the most exciting program, absolutely not. However seeting PR's every workout or every week is much better than the bi monthly PR's I am getting now.

Sometimes all you need is a short break to re-energize the mind and body, especially when the weights are getting heavy.
