5 X 5 Training Method

[needsize]

One quick question, on the first week does nutrition stay at maintenance or above, cause I feel kinda wrong eating so much if the workout is light.

start slowing adding calories

can we get a fix on that link spatts?

How long should it take before you start struggling to get the reps? I'm in week 5 and still knocking everything out with ease. I just lift it slower to make it feel heavier.

yes link fix please spatts!

By the 4th week you should reach your old working weight. It's not surprising that 5 weeks in only you're doing fine. Give it some more time.

I should have done Incline press for the 5x5 instead of flat. I might switch next week.

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Yeah, I'd definitely say you do that. Inclines are priority #1 for me. I love them.

I HATE THEM!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE??? But I still do them, and doing them for 5x5 could be a good idea

What's wrong with the link? I assume you mean from "training stickies" to the actual thread... that seems to work fine
