re: 2024 Training Schedules

Things could change (for me) at any time, based off any number of factors(injuries or anything that seems to be approaching an injury, maybe I read/learn something new that makes me change my mind, equipment issues, time/schedule problems, travel, etc), but I know Johnny Pain is going to be releasing a new book soon (STRIP) and it sounds like something that will be right up my alley.
So I'm expecting that I will be modifying my schedule pretty quickly, but we'll see, I just want to mix it up this year instead of just crushing myself into dust with LPLPLPLPLP. I may come to find out that at my age (45) I can't do Olympic lifting enough to dedicate multiple weeks to doing that, and only that, while actually getting a benefit from it. This year is a big experiment in an way, but it's got me all excited and happy, which is new and nice.
Has AA ever put out anything covering his overall methodology when it comes to program development? I've read the descriptions of all his programs on the PPSA site, and I think I've picked over the Insta completely, only things I haven't done is listen to podcast appearances he's done. My sticking point with PPSA is I feel like I don't know what I'm getting into until I've purchased the programs (which aren't cheap in my opinion). I think the best resource to find out about the individual PPSA programs is right here on TD. Several people have written about their experiences with different PPSA programs, so that's great, but I'd be interested to hear AA expound on his methods. I'll start reading my 5/3/1 book today.

531 forever is really the must have book of the 531 series
AA is simply about consistent strength training. he has said in the past to use 90% training max, add 10lbs to lower body and 5 to upper body lifts every month. then he has said only use 90% if you are extremely inexperienced and 95% if experienced, essentially the exact opposite of Wendler. He has stated go until you cant make a month then back off and also said 5 forward, 2 back works.
i think aaron is just more about putting in the work than some overarching system. he wants it to be fun etc
if you want a program description for certain goals etc on any of them lmk. i have all of them except brace yourself.
and yea JP is supposed to send me strip when he releases it. guess we will see. might run it too, dunno yet.
