Hmm. It's probably something I encountered reading online about the different 3x5 and 5x5 programs that actually isn't in the book. I guess I won't worry about it too much then.

Hello all,

I've been doing Starting Strength pretty consistently for the past 2.5 months. My 5 rep max for bench has improved by about 20 lbs, 35 lbs for squat, and 15 lbs for overhead press. ...

I appreciate the encouragement, but there are a variety of questions/thoughts I hoped someone had some further input on....

I've been working out consistently 3-4 times/week for around 3 1/2 months now, and I saw reasonable but not fantastic gains with a lot of squatting, benching,...

Yeah, I figured that's the response I'd get to be honest. Both beginners programs you mentioned I've looked at quite a bit (and naively went past them). I may switch to stronglifts 5x5 for 6-10...

I know you're all probably sick of these posts this time of year...but this is my routine I've been doing for the past 2 weeks and it has been kicking my butt thus far, but I'm quite pleased with it...
