Hello,
I just want to take the time to introduce myself to the group. I admit that I've been lurking since the beginning of the year, sorry, and it’s time to actually engage with the group. I've been doing Stronglifts 5 x 5 for three weeks, this one was supposed to be my fourth but I’m sick :frown: , and now I know why I struggled to go to the gym for so long; because I hate cardio. I started the program having to lower the recommended weights due to lower back pain, but I’m happy to say that the pain has diminished in the last three weeks and I feel much stronger. So, You will be seeing me around and I will be posting questions as they come, cause the main forums can be a little rough, and I don’t want my poor friend @ Loftearmen to think that I am taking advantage of his good nature and willingness to answer my post…
Thanks,
Lynette

Welcome! The advantage of starting with lower weights is you get to sound awesome and say "yeah I just doubled my starting weight" sooner.0
