Reccomend a good deadlift and/or bench program for me

I'm currently doing Outlaw crossfit, which takes 5 days a week. We haven't had bench or deadlift in our cycles for about 6 months now. I want to pick a bench and deadlift program to use on one of my 2 off days, as it drives me crazy not doing either of these. Squatting is already involved with my current regimen.
I was thinking Wendler's 5/3/1 but I'm worried my numbers are a little too advanced for that? I could have the completely wrong idea about Wendler's, but I always thought it was more for intermediate lifters, where I'd say I'm more advanced. I tested my maxes out on bench and deadlift yesterday, so I'll have a starting point. Any help appreciated

I have to deadlift my dick everyday. Sometimes I have to bench your mom off of me too.

Not sure whats so funny, the Outlaw methods are fricking brutal. Its a very hard program.

Are you back in the states, or just on some weird arse schedule

You want a bench/deadlift program? for 2 days...?
Just do a linear progression. Start off at 30% Max. Do 5X5. Add 5lbs to each lift per workout

I'm not saying that I'm a nationally competitive lifter. I just would consider myself a more advanced lifter than the "average" gym-goer, and my numbers would support that. Outlaw is pretty legit programming, in my opinion. Regardless, none of that matters. If you'd rather think of me as a novice, recommend a deadlift/bench program for someone else who is advanced.

I want a program for each or a condensed program involving just those two lifts, which I can do in one day.
So like the bench and deadlift portion of a cycle, which I could do both in one day.

What i told you is basically just the bench/deadlift removed from Stronglifts 5x5. You will feel like you are wasting your time initially, but stick to the the plan

Nah in the UK, I was on leave last month in the states.

Seems like 30% is too low of a starting point, especially when just adding 5 pounds per week.
Unless I'm understanding what you're saying wrong.
Example- With a 325 bench press, 30% would have you starting at 5x5 with 98 pounds. Adding 5 pounds a week, and you aren't even doing 200 for 20 weeks.

May have starting % incorrect

Everything you need to know is here. I know that i didnt even start as low as they recommend because felt entirely too low, but dont stray to far or you will plateau too soon. There is a spreadsheet on site to help track and guide you. Also an App available

Any program is going to call for more than 2 days a week. If you want to bench and deadlift, then go and bench and deadlift.

What are your current 1RMs in the bench, deadlift, squat, and press? How much do you weigh?
Posted on 6/23/15 at 9:36 am to Tigerfan56
You're advanced, brah? Can you do barbell leg presses while doing a handstand?
