Thanks for the feedback guys. I have not been improving but I think deadlifts is one of the lifts that I quit doing more often than not, but I plan on changing it. My squat is really my horrible lift but I will keep those numbers to myself. I am one of the few people that squat at my gym in the...

Went into my my DL program on 5x5's with 195 this week which was 10lbs more than I used last week. The weight really does not feel very heavy but this is much more volume than I am used to doing for DL's which I hope will help my pathetic 305 max. Not that I am a PL but it is still nice to hit...

I think if you must do cardio do it after your weight training.

Will do. Not sure if I can keep increasing at that level though. 10 lbs per week for six months will come out to about a 240 lb increase which is a good bit over my max. Is there a point where you just try and go heavy to test a new max?

Well I went with 185 today followed by pullups and some other stuff. I guess next week I will go with 195. How long do most of you stay on a 5x5?

My max I have done is only 305 what do you feel would be a good weight to start with?
