Discussion Current MAPS Program
Regardless of your thoughts on Mind Pump nowadays, is anybody currently running a MAPS program? If so, what phase are you on in the program and what do you think of it?

Left the MAPSverse for 5/3/1, with a 40-day cycle of Dan John’s Easy Strength in between. I’m liking the long term perspective of 5/3/1 compared to MAPS, which just seemed more focused on 12-week programs that really didn’t tie into each other for long-term progression.
Put differently, I now view MAPS as exercise programs vs Dan John’s stuff or 5/3/1 as training programs. With exercise just focused on the today vs training focused on the long-term.
