Nice PR'ing bro!!

Stronger person than I... No way in hell would I try to PR lifts in the morning... can't handle lifting heavy in the am... on my old "do whatever routine" yeah, but not this Cheers!

Thanks for all the good comments

CK it wasnt that i didnt want to give it my all just that the weight wasnt heavy enough to give it my all .

Sarge i dont really like training in the morning just it was more convenient for the missus to go early today. Really looking forward to Fridays workout some more PR`s

That's what the principal is behind 5x5 training.

Next time he will... and he'll keep adding until it feels like he's working...then he'll keep adding until he stalls out eventually... if ever... think Godzilla

ROAR!!! so... what if you put too much on and can't get through the 5 then what? do you do another set with a lower weight?

That shouldn't happen til week 7 + usually unless someone's misjudged their initial numbers/max lifts...

If someone can't get the last rep on their top set... they do it again next week and make sure they eat enough during the week to hit the rep

I didn't get any of this until I did it myself... just want to let you and others know that, lol

This is good to know, I am trying to convince my hubby to try this and I have been reading a lot of the 5x5 journals to see how everyone is progressing, his main concern is doing this and not gaining size.

sorry to jack your thread
