check out the how to bulk sticky for more info.
Does the muscle keep its memory for good after its grown? I am hopefull that I will reach the level I did before faster this time. I have only done 2 very light training days and hardly anything and already aching like mad. Lucky I played it safe and didnt try and lift anything heavy for the 1st time back. Cant wait to get back in shape again.

The 5x5 does this mean... 5 sets of 5 reps per each exercise right? Do you have to train to failure for each set? (very heavy) and you have to train the whole complete body per session. The same muscle groups each time you train? Thats a lot of sets for one day session? But I may be wrong.. can let me know if this is right? I am wondering if this will give enough time for recovery before the next session. I am new to this style as I've always used split days.

Cheers.
