    Hey! I'm 28, I love lifting, I was going to do SL but I decided to do Ice Cream Fitness 5x5 instead because I liked the added accessory work :smile: Feel free to add me

    Ok, I need to see this program, only because of the name.

    After every lifting session you need to eat a pint of Ben & Jerry's or you aren't following it properly. ;)

    No idea where he came up with the name but it did pique my interest. I'm doing the cutting version, so far its ok. I miss spending more time in the gym but I've continued losing and had to up my calories today because the program is making me hungrier. I thought it was a good transition from my own program to a strength program.

    23 years old and I've just re-started SL5x5
    Did it for a while last year and really enjoyed it. I finally have a proper gym again and am giving it another go :)

    I am kind of funny, maybe. I am also honest. Add me if you eat food (enough food) and lift and are super cool (or just think you are).

    Not super cool, love food, vacillate from OCD to can't be bothered (nothing in between), and from the UK (So most of my US friends find me a bit 'funny') ...

    Think I am now close to my goal - in OCD mode right now trying to finally lose that stubborn last few pounds before Xmas, and literally started stronglifts 5x5 this morning.
    - Feel free to add me though :D

    I'm 45, 7 weeks into Stronglifts 5x5 & just started to lift triple digits. Love it! I think lifting is the fountain of youth. I could probably use some alpha hydroxy lotion, though :-)

    I would love to join this group buuuut I'm in my very early 50's. I lift 6 days a week and I've just started the Bill Phillips Back To Fit 12 week trainer and I love it. Now if I have to be in my 20's to join and that opt me out...:-( I completely understand.
