    looks like pretty good quality stuff though, does the bench adjust?

    Stronglifts 5x5 is a great program.
    I have just recently completed my 12th week of the program.
    I bought some Olympic plates at Walmart when I first started. Recently I found a used Olympic Bar at ""Play it again sports". New and used sporting equipment stores are great places to get weights and equipment. I am working out at home, the weight is increasing nicely, safety is a concern now, because I often lift alone, so a power rack is a must for me now. Just haven't got one yet.
    Good luck. stay strong.
    feel free to add me.

    Hi Reed. Could you tell me if this stronglifts is a book? I keep asking about 5x5 and I can't get an answer as to what it is.

    stronglifts.com is where you will find the answers to your questions.

    nice nice! i don't see a squat rack though

    I didn't get it in the photo, but it's just further up in that top picture. I cut off the top of the rack. This is the whole set: http://incredibody.com/sites/incredibody/store/diet-exercise-product-images/cap-barbell-olympic-weight-bench-with-squat-rack-fm-7105-1.png
