Did workout A yesterday Squat 5x5 85# Bench 5x5 70# Rows 5x5 80# I definitely feel sore today from that bench and my squat speed is starting to slow as the weight gets heavier. I'm really loving how short stronglifts workouts are.

I was pretty chubby 6 years ago ....back then I didn't understand that being small was the goal so I was ecstatic when my dress size moved from 12 to 14 until I watched an infomercial with a woman over 40 rejoicing that she was a size 6.....from then on I've…
