Well that's the thing, it's hard for someone to truly suggest what you should do without having a whole lot of info about you. You have to try to assess yourself realistically. Honestly, you can tell a lot simply from the kind of weight you can put up and where that is compared to a year ago, a couple of years ago, etc. That is the importance of a logbook.

For instance, when your first started training did you make very quick progress for a while and that progress has slowed in recent time? Or did you never really make good progress at all? With all this you have to consider BEHAVIOUR.

You did some type of 5x5. I take it it was an intermediate routine. Unless you are pretty advanced you should have gotten some good results and put up some nice PR's. If you didn't you either didn't run it right or it's behavioural. But a successful run should give you a lot of info. If you are not really able to learn from that info then that in itself is a clue to training experience.

I just re-posted in the DFT sticky (which 0311 had posted before), Madcow's writeups (link) on all this. Go and read all of that. That will help you determine where you are at. And I mean ALL of it.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
