Yo guys, need some advice here. Is 5x5 training still legit for building muscle today, or is it better to switch things up?

I know it’s solid for strength but what about putting on serious size? For those of you running 5x5, how’s your progress so far? Would you stick with it or go for higher reps and more volume? Drop your thoughts, bros. I’m tryna see what actually works in the gym.
