Well I've strayed for long enough. I can't believe how easy it can be to stray away from a strength program to "play" around with some new found strength lol thanks to everyone and especially this thread I'm going back to 5x5 for a while. I have goal that I'm determined to make! Ill come back to give updates from time to time and also if anyone wants to, you can check out my thread/log.

Just one quick question about the 5x5. You have workout a and workout b. Obviously mon-wed-fri (ex workout a-workout b-workout a) but do you start with workout b on week 2 and just alternate them each week or just do the same workout exactly the same each week. I mean you'd be doing squats bench and rows twice every week.

Thanks very much. And i hate to do this because it shows how new i am but how come when looking at the stronglifts it only shows 1 set of 5 deads instead of 5 like every thing else. Would it be a taxing issue?
