I'd like to hear more about the bodyweight squat and whether you could try something else instead of leg press. Leg press after back surgery does not sound good to me. I am sure there are better alternatives.

I would also recommend an intermediate 5x5 or something where the volume could be modulated rather than launching into the stronglifts, which, if I understand correctly, is SS with 5x5 instead of 3x5. This is just a very general thing and I am not saying what will work for you of not work for you but when recuping from those kind of ongoing health problems you really want to be able to ease into the volume of it and not just the weight.

Good luck Rabbit. Sorry to hear about all these problems and glad to hear you are back at it.

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