When I first read Bill Starr's 5x5 program I thought “this stuff will never work: where is the arm training, where is the isolation, I will never achieve my goals”. If StrongLifts 5x5 sounds totally different from what you've done up to now: don't judge it. With the Fitness First gyms popping everywhere, I'm proud I can increase the popularity of a method that has been living underground for too much time. Readers told me they found StrongLifts 5x5 after searching for ways to build muscle & lose fat. For an example of the physique StrongLifts 5x5 builds, take a look at the girls of Crossfit. This program will get you muscular thighs, abs & arms while lowering your body fat. StrongLifts 5x5 works for women just as for men. This is a strength training program in the first place. I have given this program to bodybuilders who wanted to focus on strength & saw their Squat increase by 20kg & Bench Press by 10kg in 2 months. Of course, if you already lift weights, StrongLifts 5x5 program will work for you too. Leave the gym with your training journal showing personal records. This not only avoids injuries, it's also better mentally. Take slow but steady steps towards success. StrongLifts 5x5 program is a long-term approach. At the same time the program acts motivating: you have a plan, you know what to do at the gym, you know which weights to lift, you feel & see the program working. StrongLifts 5x5 minimizes risks of injury by enforcing correct exercise technique. Beginners who a) never lifted barbells b) never followed a program c) are out of shape and/or weak d) don't have a coach to judge if their technique is right so they can add weight. StrongLifts 5x5 has a different approach than Bill Starr 5x5 for 1 reason: I deal with beginners. This program is influenced by the first strength training program I did when I quit bodybuilding: Bill Starr 5x5. StrongLifts 5x5 is what I give to anybody who wants to lift weights for the first time. Readers called it StrongLifts 5x5, so I renamed it. I published the “Beginner Strength Training Program” 1 month later. In February 2007 I decided to make a website about strength training based on what I've learned during the past 10 years.
