Meh very impressive to be able to carry that load but it's from 18 inches, I mean of I tried to do that I would probably lock out before the weight came off the blocks lol
What do y'all think of this
When you fail reset down and start moving up again, when you fail again, take a deloadI'm in week 9 of stronglifts now and things are getting tougher. I failed for the first time on overhead press the other week at 42.5kg but nailed it yesterday moving up to 45kg.
At what weights did you guys start failing?
Also, what do you recommend doing once I finish with stronglifts? Are there other routines out there that are better? I like the simplicity of stronglifts and the challenge of trying to lift heavier each session...and I love the app.
How long did people do stronglifts for before moving to something else?
Found a decent personal training app that has got variations of 531 on it. What starting weights should I be using?When you fail reset down and start moving up again, when you fail again, take a deload
Basically just keep doing that for at least a few months.
Then I'd say move into 531 and pick a template for that, keep it simple
I failed at OHP before the other lifts, it’s fairly common I think.I'm in week 9 of stronglifts now and things are getting tougher. I failed for the first time on overhead press the other week at 42.5kg but nailed it yesterday moving up to 45kg.

aye I'm doing Bill Starr's 5x5 atm, which Madcow's originated from. Only doing it once a week like so just using it as a guide to compliment marathon training. Gonna try up the sessions to 2 this week.I did Stronglifts for about 18 months. Agreed on the app, one of the best value for money purchases I've ever made.
I also failed first at OHP - at a lower weight than you did. It's not really worthwhile comparing though, depends how big you are, what sports/training you've done in the past, how long you rest between sets etc. As long as you make sure you're giving it all you should be satisfied.
I'm now on my second cycle of MadCow 5x5 - it's the programme Mehdi (from Stronglifts) recommends moving on to once you finish Stronglifts. I like it as it has me benching more often (twice a week, every week), which is my biggest weakness. It took a lot of digging to find the spreadsheet - if you (or anyone else) wants it DM me and I'll ping it across.

There is a link to a spreadsheet here:I did Stronglifts for about 18 months. Agreed on the app, one of the best value for money purchases I've ever made.

What you selling then .Spent a shitload on my home gym over the last few months. Joined David Lloyd’s today.
Go figure.
Keeping hold of it for now (although it’s be a long way for you to travel).What you selling then .
I've just bought a squat rack bar and weights and a bench it covers most of what I do but I need bands, chains also gonna build a platform for loading stones for the summer I reckon.
