Most definitely for deadlifts. The really help secure the lift in my opinion.

Age? Weight? Height?

To be a badass that is ready in all functional situations and to be someone that has the strength to move anything in his way TRAIN your legs. If you want to look like an athletic beast with strength that goes beyond the stereotypical measurement of you bicep, TRAIN you guddamn legs! :-)

Cut some of the shit carbohydrates out of your diet (SUGAR). Give it 4-6 weeks with core training and you will notice a big change.

Bro do a search. Their is mountains of information on the 5x5 in these forums. I only say that becuase you might not get the responses your hoping for with such a vague overly abundant question. Just do a little research and get familiar with the routine. Google "5x5 Calculator" this will...

I agree with zed good looking squat.....good job Dare I say go deeper :-) DO IT!!!!

advice.... lower the weight and gradually work you way up in a pyramid type fashion. Build that bottom strength. Make sure you form is spot on as well. Add variety of chest exercises.

Heavy weight, technique and form suffer but the arm muscles are moving more weight. IMO this is useless training. Light weight, technique and form should/need to be perfect. Less overall weight being moved but if you can isolate and really focus that weight it will also do amazing things.

Bench. Make sure form is good. Start weights that are functional. Take your time, and make sure you understand your body. Good luck bro
