I decided to mix things up a bit and tackle 5x5 for a few weeks. I've read Starr's fantastic info and feel at least knowledgeable enough to start with it. I started reading up on it after seeing the sticky, so thanx to 0311 for posting it.

The low-reps make it attractive because it makes me feel like I can take on more. The scaling up during the sets makes me push myself with more weight. So, I really like the plan overall. I'm spending more time in the squat rack, which is a good thing and I just *feel* better afterwards.

Great program!
