    I ran 5x5 for about a year before I moved on to 5/3/1 for another 2 years or so. I kinda fell off the grid after I hit my last set of goals and I stopped working out as often and testing at all. As a normal consequence of that, I got fatter and weaker. I couldn't hit these today, but hopefully they will help with your motivation. As for my motivation, I'm going to hit these all again by the end of the year.

    First started 5x5 July 2011
    Squat - 235
    Bench - 225
    Deadlift - 265
    OHP - 145

    9 month later - March 2012
    Squat - 325
    Bench - 250
    Deadlift - 355
    OHP - 160

    A lot of work later and years of consistent lifting - Jan. 2015
    Squat - 500
    Bench - 375
    Deadlift - 550
    OHP - 275

    Been at it 5 months.

    Squat: 210
    Bench: 185
    DL: 300
    OHP: 107.5
    Row: 165

    Squat and bench have been slow for me, but I am finally adding some weight because I feel like I started to figure out form.

    I am finishing week 6 tomorrow
    Squat 175 - (knees are starting to bother me, getting real tough, may stall soon)
    Bench 140 - Not too bad yet
    DL 185 - Not too bad yet
    OHP 90 - getting tough
    Row 120 - Not too bad

    I do weighted dips, paused bench press, and shrugs on Bench/row day for assistance. I do weighted pullups, close grip bench, and curls on Press/Dl day

    I really want to switch over to Wendler 531 soon, but still lots of room for increases here. I may replace one squat day or try an intentional deload to work on form to see if it helps my knee. My biggest dilemma has been being afraid to eat more out of fear of weight gain. I can't decide if I want to slow bulk or cut. I would like ot maintain but I haven't been able to figure out what the # is yet.
