    Change it up and just hit your four bigs for a while and squeeze in accessory work if you have time. Bench, squat, OHP and deathlift. You could do just those four and no other work and spark some new growth. One week do heavy doubles and triples and the next week go for high volume. You'll be surprised how much EVERYTHING grows even without hitting all the muscles directly.

    I train like u suggested instinctively. No 2 days are the same energy or power level. Some days some 12 yr old with pizza face is using the machine a want, so I must change it up.
    Machines...WTF...LMAO!
    Teasing you bro.

    Now this is something that Ive never done. Think I will hit this type of training after I take some time off. That should be in Mid October. Prolly gonna take a min of 5 weeks...hernia repair. Then come back on this.

    Lol by machines I mean cables, some hammer strength machines, dip station, smith machine. I have a bad lower back and deads and bent over rows kill me. I've gotten great chest and back growth for the hammer strength stuff at the golds I train at. I find bench press I have a very hard time getting good chest contraction and growth results.

    I do use the abductor/adductor machines but mostly hoping a hottie will sit on the other one next to me and my proviron crazed self can attack her lol! lol j/k they are great for your knees.

    Sorry I'm such a fat slob. I never do cardio. Well besides sex lol. I will do some this coming week. I'd rather eat very clean and starve then do cardio lol.

    LMAO I guess we have successfully hijacked Arabs thread.....but at least we are managing to stay on subject.

    OS I gotta say IMO your titz for the SL 5x5. You have a dam nice bod right there and fairly lean. You have a good amnt of mass on you.
    I would say hit that shit for the full 12 weeks. You could do it 2 ways.
    Put a short 6 week cycle on the back side of the program or......
    Do the program for 12 weeks. Take a week off and then hit it again with a cycle during the whole 12 weeks.
