5x5 iirc is mainly for strength gains while upping to 4x8 is more towards size.

After training regularly since 1992 and never really gaining much muscle ( between 11.5 st and 12.5 st), I have finally discovered the correct way to gain size- get stronger!! Even if it means doing 3x3- rep sets, as long as you lift more than you have been you will get bigger.
