Stronglifts 5x5 success (ongoing)

cgvet37 · October 2017

Last week was my tenth week doing Stronglifts. I have gained six pounds, and my body fat has decreased 1.2%. My squat has doubled, 145 to 305 lbs. I'm near doubling my deadlift as well. Something I never thought imaginable since I have degenerative back disease. I let it hold me back for a long time. The fear of the unknown can hold you back, sometimes you have to take a leap of faith.

Congrats, that's awesome! Good for you in pushing through that fear, it's not easy.

Awesome job, man! Keep on, keeping on!

What is your plan once you progress through the deloads (according to SL 5x5 documentation)? Have you considered MadCows?

I have found another program that is split into a bench, squat, and deadlift day.

Fantastic job! So glad to see you didn't let your perceived limitations hold you back.
