Good bodybuilding program to complement Crossfit ~4x/ week?

Good bodybuilding program to complement Crossfit ~4x/ week?

Hi folks, I've been crossfitting for about 8ish years. The programming at my gym has skewed a lot more toward cardio lately (hyroxification I suppose), and I'm definitely a lifting-biased athlete: lifting is where I get the most gratification/enjoyment working out.

It'd be pretty hard for me to leave this gym outright -- it's a huge part of my community, and it's by far the most convenient to access -- but I'd like to add some lifting back in maybe 1-2 times per week either there or at another local gym I join on the cheap. I'm interested in training more for strength than aesthetics, but honestly any workout I start and actually stick with is the right workout for me 😄

I'm curious about the Stronglifts 5x5 Intermediate in the FAQs: I'm a decent powerlifter, and I can see how powerlifting movements would be a good complement to crossfit. But any other programs or tips you folks might have for someone shopping a new, part-time program?

Thanks all. Happy WODing.
