| Anyone doing the 5-5-5 MWF. Are you having any results. |
| I've done it before and had good results on squat strength. The problem is squatting heavy like that for months on end three day a week can beat your body up pretty good. I'd end up with a lot of soreness that wouldn't go away without a few weeks off after a while. |

I've been doing it since November 2015, but I had some setbacks. I started at a size 44/32 slacks and now I am down to 38/32. Currently, I'm squatting 225, deadlifting 230, bent over rowing 170, bench pressing a whimpy 150, and overhead pressing a whimpy 105. Since I started, I managed to re-injure my left shoulder which was previously injured in an auto accident and I had oral surgery which really played hell with my diet. In fact, I'm not going to get my replacement teeth until October or November, so my diet will suck for a few more months. Regardless, that is what I am blaming my whimpy bench and overhead press on, injury and not being able to follow the exact diet that I want to follow. |
