Congrats on the OHP PR! That's so awesome! Thanks for all the great advice on protein sources guys! I love cheese and pumpkin seeds. I should definitely include more of them in my diet. Starting my first workout of week 4! Squats 5x5 100 (WU: 2x5 45, 65, 85) I'm still trying to prevent front leaning. OHP 5x5 45. Tried…

@fanncy0626 Congrats on the weight loss!! You are killing the keto diet! Took another SL day off. My shoulders are killing me from the bench press. Only took 2 days for DOMS to kick in, haha. Did a 1h spin class today to recover. I lost 1.4lbs this morning, which is probably 3/4 water weight from my run yesterday. I did…

SL Day off. Ran 8.78mi this morning! Whoot! I officially started marathon training this week. My marathon is scheduled for end of July. I hope I can keep up with SL with the marathon training. My goal is to add 50lbs to my squats and 75 to DLs over the next 2 mo and maintain around there 2x a week until the marathon.

@Katiebear_81 @krokador Thanks for the advice! Definitely not feeling bench/rows consistently but bet that will change within 1-2 weeks. OH are already murdering my shoulders at a lighter weight lol. It seems like most hardcore weightlifters recommend against >20min of cardio because it "burns off all the muscle you spent…

This is the end of my StrongLifts week 3. Squats 2x5 45, 1x5 65, 1x5 85, 5x5 95. Bench 1x5 45, 5x5 55 Rows 5x5 65. Today I did my lifts in front of a mirror. I double checked my form, toes pointed out, in line with knees. I played around with stance distance and thought 2 inches larger than hip distance worked best. Tried…

Hi everyone! It was supposed to be StrongLifts day for me today. However I woke up with left-sided hip stiffness this morning. I am clearly doing something wrong with my squats. It seems like a lot of us struggle with form and pain from improper squats compounded by the 5lb increases. I'm going to see how I'm feeling…

@amyinthetardis1231 Everyone has one or several off days. You are still killing it!! @pezhed Congrats on starting again!

I'm a carb happy dieter. I've always loved carbs and hate to give them up. But I realize that protein helps recovery for weightlifting. I'm trying to work on that by focusing on my protein source first and then eating until satiety. Yesterday I chowed down on 2 chicken legs before eating my rice and beans for dinner. Today…

Stronglifts day off. Ran 6mi instead.

Thank you for your feedback. I also feel like I may have rushed the FM a bit. I will taper the speed workouts down.

Ran 1.6mi WU/CD StrongLifts Squats 5x5 90 (WU: 1x5 45, 1x3 65) OH 5x5 45 DL 1x5 125 (WU: 1x5 85)

Also feeling like I could benefit from someone who will go over my form with me so I'm not doing things terribly wrong as I start to increase weight. Would you say it was worth the cost?

It's my StrongLifts rest day. I ran 3.5mi in the morning.

Date - Mi - MTD (Goal=70mi) 3/6 - 3.55 - 12.2

Hi all, I just started my 3rd week of SL5x5. My workout today: Squats - WU(1x5 45, 1x3 65), 5x5 85 BP - 5x5 50 Row - 5x5 50. Felt a little self conscious about lifting just the bar so added 2.5lbs to each side.

Hi all: Goal is 70mi in March. 3/1: 1.26mi 3/2: 6.00mi 3/3: 1.43mi Total: 8.7mi, with 61.3 more mi to go.
