***I didn't get to the gym until 5:30 this evening and they closed at 6, so I had to make it a quick workout. I've been really sick these past 2 days and only got 2 hours sleep last night. So I had already planned on making it a quick and light workout and just try to get back home and get some sleep.

***I had to miss mondays workout yesterday due to working extremely late. I'm going to make it up on Friday.
***This was a good workout. Set a PR on the deadlifts. My only downfall right now is that I'm suffering from painful lower back pumps. I'm going to increase my taurine to see if that helps.

yep, i like the 6-8 range....good strength and endurance for me....my body responds well there...sometimes i like to drop down and do sets of 4 when training for pure strength..like this make up chest workout that i'll be doing on friday, it will consist of a couple sets of 8 to warm up and then 4 sets of 4 real heavy
Im the same way. I get good size off 8 reps no need to go 12. The 5x5 worked really well for me and its because I know my body has a lot of those fast twitch fibers, but not enough slow twitch.
What are your goals?

bulk up to around 215-220 at a decent bf and then compete in bodybuilding around the 198-202 range so i can be at the top of the light heavy weight
yeah, i like the 5X5 when i did it the last time as well
