The first time I tried a 540, I was so used to spinning 360 that I stopped at 3, then realized I was sposed to 5, tried to finish the rotation, but only got to about 483.9.. Yeah that one sorta hurt..my hip made a poppy noise. But after that I got them down pretty solid.

You definitly dont need to be able to grab your three to be able to do a 5. 5's are easy. You just have to have it in your head that you are going to do it, spin a tiny bit harder, and then when you see your landing just throw it to switch. You get to see you landing for a whole 270 too. Make sure you are comfortable with 180's too obviously.

all i did was throw a 3 and just kept looking over my shoulder. I was really really thinking about my head over my shoulder and it worked. If you're not looking over its not gonna work.
