5 x 5 - just starting (too easy?)

Hi all, just started this programme this morning and just guessed at the weights to lift.
I work in KG's, so started this morning with Squats 30kg, Bench Press 25kg & Barbell Row 25kg.
I found these to be really easy and really quick and feel like I wasn't getting a good work out in.
Am I doing something wrong or should I just keep upping my weights?
I still feel that the work outs are really short - so not what I am used to.

I just started, too. I'm planning on following the program.
It may be easy at first but as you add weight it will get
harder and you'll need a longer rest period between sets.0 -
I felt the same as you do in the beginning, soon you will see that this program moves fast and before you know it you will be working hard when lifting. take this time to really get your form down.0
