Wow, another strong bump on a now 10 year old thread lol, but useful information still.

You should post this in the motivation section aswell if you havent already :)

Great job, well done!

I got to a point where i couldnt see my toes anymore when i looked down, saw pictures of myself from a night out once and really saw for the first time just how unfit and out of shape i looked, past...

Im hoping to start this program, unfortunately im only able to get to the gym 4x per week whereas the program suggests 5.

Will it cause too much of an issue doing legs once a week instead of twice...

Congrats on reaching your goal! Green eyed here :P

I have been following Bill Starr's 5x5 strength building program, i found i was exactly the same when i started and i could only do 2 maybe 3 dips at a push, over time as this program helps to boost...

Squats, no question, i actually quite enjoy deadlifting but squats just make me feel sick lol.

Damn! Ive been way under eating based on this then, thanks man! repped.

I can notice a decent difference considering it is only 4 weeks, im in kind of the same position as you, i have been training hard and (what i initially thought) have been eating well, unfortunately...

I get the Chocolate Smooth protein powder from MyProtein.com, its really tasty! Check it out! :)

Dumbell squats, pistol squats or if its like my gym, they have a smith machine but no squat rack, i use that to squat instead.
