    Question regarding the 5x5

    Fair enough, thanks guys. As for the 1 set on deadlifts, it's a ramping set, you still do 5 sets, but it's only one heavy set.

    Question regarding crossfit

    Thank you to those that replied, and for the confusion, it's not that I don't like crossfit, in fact I really love it, I was asking more along the lines of whether or not you all think 5/3/1 and crossfit could be done in a way that compliments each program. I think the biggest pitfall that...

    Question about bill starr 5x5

    Starting Strength and KM

    Hey fellow AM readers. Currently I've gotten back into starting strength after a month of non stop work and travel for work. I stayed up on fitness with conditioning, as a result recovery is great. I started Krav Maga again, and with the added stimulus and high intensity conditioning, I...

    Serious help needed

    Yeah I got swamped at work and ended up taking a week off now I'm looking for a full body routine, it's nice to make strength gains but I saw an old picture of myself from 2 years ago and realized I look pretty much the same. I want to really make some serious changes
