  1. Is my intensity too high?

    Thanks for the replies guys Good info - I always thought intensity was just how hard you're lifting. Either way, I think I am experiencing overtraining. I'm going to start Madcows 5x5 on monday because it has ramping sets which I like unlike Texas Method
  2. Is my intensity too high?

    I definitely agree with this. I'm still running the same routine but have not progressed anymore than the stats in the OP. My lifts have actually gone down since then. I took a rest week and then got sick so my rest week turned into 2 rest weeks. I am only squatting about 185x5 now and it sucks...
  3. Intermediate 4 Day Split for Strength

Each session my working sets are done with my 5RM weight and I try to add 5lbs next session but its getting really hard. (My lifts...
  7. Intermediate 4 Day Split for Strength

    I'm running Starting Strength at the moment and my stats are 250/185/315. Does this routine look like it could be useful to me at some point or would I be better off moving on to a routine like Madcows 5x5 or Texas Method? (Once I can't progress anymore on SS) Monday (Bench Press and Related...
