i'm 5' 4" haha so i'm pretty damn short .. but i'm still young so i have another few years for potential growth
I know you're probably used to seeing your abs and oblique lines(w.e you call it),but don't worry about the fat, I have never seen my lower abs in my life, YET.
Just keep lifting and eating heavy, no isolations, and like luder said I've seen more growth on 5x5 than anything.

I'm not a fan of the excessive fat gain on Rippetoe's diet. Even Mehdi doesn't think that's necessary for progression. I think it's much more conscious and reasonable. Lots of fruits and veggies. Carbs only post workout.
Mehdi's Example Diet:
Spoiler!
Forget about portion size and calories. Just eat your stomach full. You won't get fat eating healthy foods. Especially not if you exercise and with all the veggies. Example diet using the above 8 nutrition rules:
Breakfast: eggs with veggies, orange, green tea
Snack: mixed nuts, pear
Lunch: tuna, roman lettuce, olives, olive oil
Snack: cottage cheese with apple
Post workout: ground round, quinoa, spinach, banana
Dinner: chicken, spinach, baby carrots, peer
Pre-bed snack: cottage cheese, berries, ground flax seeds, fish oil
Edit:
Sorry should have made myself clear, A and B will be rotated but these will be concrete

So your modifications were to remove squats and deadlifts?

Removing 2 of the big three lifts is not very reasonable...
I suggest just trying out the same program I'm on man if you're really worried about the arm gains.
If I understood it correctly, I don't think he's really removing them, but rather, rotating them around for each session of the week... Honestly, the program looks fine to me.. Doing compound movements first and putting isolations at the end is essentially what he should be goin for..
You should be fine in terms of the program... Now worry more about executing the proper technique during those exercises so that your muscles are being worked properly.
There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.
Hm interesting, my bad. Did not see this. I guess this could work, just remember to stick to the program if you wanna test the results. Don't give up halfway if you get discouraged.
