    SL 5x5 is better for functional strength gains. In either case you will only be using these programs as a starting point to branch into more advanced level programs someday and in that regard SL 5x5 is better. NROLFW tries too hard to package itself as a complete end-all-be-all program that does everything, but the truth is it isn't.
