Your bw is flying up

I'm eating a ton and using a little somethin somethin on the side

I just wish I could heal my back up from that wipeout I need to get back to good health to really make some good gains!

5x5 is a great proven old school method of getting stronger....the medium rep level keeps your strength and intensity in the workout up but isnt straight bodybuilding or powerlifting....powerbuilding basically. If you do this program right and really push yourself you can see huge gains in your 1RM numbers in most lifts.

I absolutely love the program. Great for athletes

It is an awesome program. I'm going back to it after my current program is done. 3 more weeks and I'm back to 5x5.

25 min bike ride

Lots of stretching and abs

And then I just did a bunch of rear delt work and back extentions. Nothing major still easing back into the groove I'm slowly healing .. But feeling pretty pumped up and lean for being at 203.. Actually 204 today
