Newbie to StrongLifts

Hi! I've been lurking here all weekend, and I really feel like this program is going to be better for me. I'm 3/4 the way through NROL4W stage 2, and not liking it at all. I was loving stage 1, but stage 2 has just been weird. I love the simplicity of this program though. I'll be starting on Thursday, after almost 1.5 weeks off due to weird scheduling craziness and the holiday. I hadn't progressed very far in weight, so I'll be deloading back to the beginning with empty bar and working my way up. I'm excited to really find out what I'm capable of!

Amanda

    Hello and welcome! I also started out with NROL4W, made it through Stage 1 but didn't care for it and switched over to SL 5x5 after doing some research. I love this program! It makes me feel like a beast LOL. And I love to see emerging muscles. Good luck and happy lifting!
