What are your goals bro?

This is my first time running 5x5, so short term by the time it all stalls out I want to be AT LEAST at these numbers:

flats: 280x5
Squats: 330x5
Deads:365x5
Inclines: 235x5
Rows: 225x5

Longer term, I just want to keep increasing strength while driving my bodyweight upwards.

I just read looked at your numbers compared to your first few weeks to now.

Sweet Christ. I can't wait to bulk to get the numbers you're getting man. Hell of a job.

Thanks rabid, you'll do great! PM when you're starting again, I know you told me when but I forgot.

Solid numbers all the way around. You can also adjust the 5x5 into a few weeks of a 3x3 approach as well.

Yea, solid being the key word, that's why they're just short term goals. I don't want solid numbers, I want them to be impressive!

These look like very reasonable goals, and shortly you will have a new set of them.

That's funny shit! I know how you feel. I think I might die when I'm in the gym while at work, and we get a structure fire call. Pulling charged hoses and lugin' around 75-95 extra lbs. on my back while standing in 600-800 degrees temp. is crazy after those 5x5 squats.
