I didn't write any of this. The 5x5 is by Bill Starr, olympic champion and guru. The DFHT was written by Matt Reynolds over at meso-rx.

JS Row is when each rep rests on the floor. The concentric is a fast explosion up. I usually hit my upper abs hard with the bar.

I like what I read here. My aim is to put on mass. I'm at 10% bodyfat. I notice there are alot of variations of the 5x5. Who should be using the basic version and who should be going for the variation/split, like Kane's?

If you have not had any experience with 5x5 start with the basic program as that will get you used to the program while giving you some real good gains. After running through the program you can then go to a variation like Kane for even more growth. If you start with too advanced a program too soon and too heavy you could stall out and get discouraged. Personally, I would start with the basics. Either way enjoy and good luck.

So with this 5x5 workout you only workout 3 days a week?
