Do you follow 5x5 stronglifts? http://stronglifts.com/5x5/

I've heard good things about it.

Yes I am following 5x5 at the moment and have been for about 3 months now. I have really enjoyed it because the workouts are relatively short but very intense, also I just like all the compound lifts. Are you thinking about starting it? If so feel free to ask me anything

I'd like to give it a go. I've recently moved and have no gym membership here yet. All the local gyms are about £40-50 per month and I can't currently justify that. At the moment I'm making do with my own smaller weights and the GSP Rushfit series. It's okay but I wish I had the heavier weights for 5x5 as it offers benefits you can't get with small weights.


Been on a big swimming kick recently, starting last summer.  Finally did a mile in 30 minutes on the nose (25m pool)!  Looked up at the clock at the start of the last lap and had ~45 seconds left.  Always try to turn it up the last few laps and sprint the last, but I didn't think I had 45 seconds in me.  But I finished at exactly 30:00!  And yes, I know for you ex-competitive swimmers this is NOT impressive in a 25m pool :)  But when I started timing myself I was at 33-34 minutes, so I'm pumped.

Really been digging the swim workout.  I work at a university so I swim at lunch MWF, try to mix in a push-up/pull-up based session on the weekends.  I go a mile total every workout.  Mix it up between full mile straight, ladder 100m to 400m and back in 100m steps, and a half mile "warm-up" then 50m sprints starting every 60 seconds.  Those are super fun and tough.  Typically start out with a 38 second 50m.  By the 12th I'm killing myself and can't beat 46-47 seconds.  I'm only doing 12 at the moment, finish the mile with a 400m cool down, usually with fins for extra leg work.  I have a buddy who turned me on to mixing in the sprint day doing 16 laps every 50 seconds!  I'm working towards that but nowhere close.  At this point I'm barely able to breath by the 12th lap every 60 seconds...

Loaded pressure treated lumber and 80 pound bags of concrete into several pick up trucks.  It's deck building season!


When you reach maximum weight, do you go back down on weight or just repeat the same weight the next time?

Wrong quote. Stupid iPhone. I was referring to 5x5 strong lift.

Gotta ask... what is a floor wiper?

Did 3 sets, 20, 16 and 10 reps with a similar weight to what this guy is doing, about 135 lbs.

    • True, true. I should do that. He really did go off during that run, I remember now. Appreciate the context. 
    • I am pretty sure it is this. Word probably got around. The reports coming out now is that he bombed some interviews, and when pressed about it during the interview just basically had a horrible response. His attitude is crap. There are stories about him throwing his players under the bus at Colorado. I get it, he's not playing behind the best O-Line or have the best weapons (outside of Travis Hunter). That is bad leadership, bad attitude.  Also, it could be his dad as well. Who would want Prime Time chattering.  Go watch the playoff run. Four top 10 teams. He was elite. The Penn State game happened with our starting left guard shifting to left tackle and going up against the 3rd pick in the NFL draft. He had two big mistakes early. The pick, which looked to be a defensive play call to trap that RPO quick out, and then the fumble off his knee. He won the game besides that. 
    • Yea I admit too I had more of a 2nd round evaluation on him, where I wrote in my notes "Maybe Geno Smith" after watching a couple games. Too many screens, too many sacks, awkward throwing motion at times, low velocity at times. Too low. At other times though I thought he made some nice throws, hence why I thought he should've probably gone around round two. So to me the free fall is surprising to an extent, but of course, it all makes sense now that he's still sitting there. He probably bombed his interviews too, and I know almost nothing of his personality. I love sports betting, hence why I love following this stuff, but there's only so much I can know from the outside looking in. But yea, my 2nd round guess was smart to an extent, but also bad now that he's still on the board and it's pick 4.17 at the moment. I see. Thanks for the take, I know you watch every game of theirs.  I just watched some of the Penn State game and can see both the upside and why he's still available. But I can get on board as well that Howard has more upside than Sanders too. Tougher competition, showed some growth from K-State to Ohio State.  I guess the question marks with Howard are processing and accuracy. Yea especially for us as fans. We don't get to interview these guys or talk to their college coaches to get a better idea of what they'll be like to work with everyday. We don't know who will end up being more durable and whose body will just naturally break down over the next few years. Some guys are great talents who go to terrible situations too, who are poor system fits in failed regimes. Other guys hit the jackpot with the perfect role on a great team in a weak division. There are so many variables.
