Thread: strong lifts 5x5

If I want to start strong lifts 5x5 is it allowed to ad in some extra isolations for back like 4 sets of lat pull downs, and for biceps and triceps?
OR should I say it recommended?

Add 2 sets of curls and 2 sets of calf raises to workout a and add 2 sets of tricep extensions and 2 sets of lat pulldown to workout b. I would also do your working sets as 3x5 instead of 5x5 if it was me

That seems good I was also thinking of that. This was what I initially had in mind.
A
3x5 squats
3x5 benchpress
3x5 barbell rows.
3x8-12 lateral raise
3 x abs

B
3x5 squats
1x5 deadlift
3x5 OHP
3/4x8-12 lat pulldowns
3x iso biceps x iso triceps
