    Thanks!
    Just started StrongLifts last week and I'm liking it so far. Just feels like I'm not doing enough right now. Weights are so light I have to constantly stop myself from putting more on.
    Do you do cardio with this as well?

    Concentrate on getting good form now while the load is light! With the progressive loading, it will soon get heavy! There are lots of good YouTube vids out there to help with form (e.g. by Mehdi or Mark Rippetoe).

    Do cardio if you like. I do it on my non-lifting days.

    Cool, thanks!

    THANKS!

    I was a total newbie and was so confused at first, lol. I'm still a beginner and always learning. This is cool.

    Thanks for the find! Hubby and I did Stronglifts last year but then it fell by the wayside when we got super busy. This renews my motivation to start it up again now that we are through our busy season and hopefully make enough of a habit to keep it going even when it gets crazy again. Love how simple yet effective this program is!
