thanks for that, my usual workouts would normally have all 3 sessions worth of volume together so i thought it was time to cut back! with that 5x5 i have started, my sessions only lasted half an hour and felt i was cheating myself when i left! with that workout you have shown, would that be...

Mainly size gains as a primary goal but also to increase my strength. From what i have read, its not really a routine to get you ripped. i have tried cutting up but really dont think its my body type so i am going big again!

Hi, I am really new to the 5 x 5 concept and have been searching the internet for a standard routine for it. Below is what i have started doing this week. I am hoping everyone can offer advice on it as like i say, i am normally a reps freek and am a little worried iam under training. All...
