Thanks for the replies. I believe I have exausted my greens for the day.

Good job! *reps*

I had an old bottle of Thermalean that I dug into a week ago. Prior to that I was losing about 3 lbs / week. This week (with the Thermalean) it was 6 lbs. That stuff does a...

This is the program I follow:

Mon: squats, bench, bent over rows, hang clean
Wed: squats, incline bench, deadlift, hang clean
Mon: squats, bench, bent over rows, hang clean

There are...

Just a word of advice. I can't speak for the other mods but I very rarely will hand out reps to a member who does not have an avi. Just sayin.

TBH I actually enjoy the squats 3 times a week. Wednesay is a light squat day and it helps mentally. Prior to this program I did a body part split with legs on Friday and I was always sore for 2 or...

I'd rep you but I need to spread it around, apparently.

I was probably light on my 5RMs that I entered, just because it was my first time through the program and I had not actually determined my 5RMs on any lifts.

Prior to this program I did mostly 10...

Please aware me.

It is a 10 week spreadsheet. The first 4 weeks (or so) seem rediculously easy. Then it starts to get heavy and tough.

Red. Feb join date. No avi. Negative Ghost Rider the pattern is full.

The last few weeks of the Bill Starr 5x5 have been difficult. I feel like I still have room to go on squats, but bench and incline are getting difficult.

That and this cut I am on (24 lbs in 7...

I hate the pullup assist machine. It feels very awkward. I do lat pulldowns to try to build up my back, and in a month or so when I am more comfortable I'll try some pullups.

I like the simplicity of the routine and the 5 rep part. Mentally it is much easier to do 5 reps than it is to do 8 or 10. I would like it to be 4 days a week instead of 3, though.

I am currently too fat to do pull ups. I need to drop another 30 lbs before I can do that.

Interdasting. I also have "Therma Lean" which I was planning on starting when the Universal ran out.

Here is my routine (and I follow it very strictly)

Mon: 5x5 plus 30 minutes cardio (AM) and 40 mins cardio (PM)
Tue: HIIT (AM), 40 mins cardio (PM)
Wed: 5x5 plus 30 minutes cardio (AM) and 40...

Yeah, I have noticed that each week I feel like I have more ceiling on squats and deads, whereas bench and incline it seems I am getting close to the limit.

I start from the hanging position. No squat at all.

I was going to bbq jumpo prawns that had marianted in a chipotle sauce, and I also have asparagus and green/red/orange/yellow peppers that I would grill. But my friends backed out so it will be just...
