Last Wednesday marks the end of Stronglifts 5x5 cycle. Target periodization was 12 weeks but we stopped at 8 or 9 weeks.
Broke a lot of PRs on this program especially with deadlifts.
SQ - 100kg
DL - 140kg
BP - 60kg
OP - 45kg
BR - 50kg
All the above new PR for myself.
SL5X5 was a strength program, designed not for size but for power. No one saw the difference in my build, but I feel the difference and the power.
The numbers speak for themselves.
Next cycle will be the PowerMuscleBurn program, a slightly advanced lifting program designed to increase strength and pack on the size.
This, is where people notice the gains.
This, is where the fun begins.
We will run this progran for minimally 8 weeks. 8 weeks of discipline, clean eating, HIIT cardio, intensive lifting. I know its gonna be worth it in the end.
At the end of Nov, my target weight would be between 80 - 85 kg. That about an increase of approximately 1kg per week.
Let's try to hit 80 first.
Let this be an escape for me. People come and go, feelings change but 200kg will always be 200kg. If there is something constant in my life, there is no doubt this is it. The gym gives you back exactly what you put in, no more, no less.
