Sure, some people may do it for a while then change to something else as their goals change... but 5/3/1 is a program most people can do for years, especially if they change up the accessory work from time to time. It's a strength program, and strength never goes out of style. If you're already looking do so something else, then you probably don't *really* understand strength programs.
