with the disparity between his bench and squat I'd bet he's doing SS

he is cutting down, not trying to bulk up
anything heavy on volume and intensity is going to fuck him over
congrats on your progress OP, keep doing w/e you are doing

I switched to it after only a couple months of lifting and saw good results. It was the first time I started to actually notice sig. increases in hypertrophy.

It works fine on a cut - just do 3x5 on power days instead of 5x5.

if anything was lagging you can't do much about it. concentrate on losing fat now and worry about adding muscle when you are done. Don't be worried if/when your lifts stop progressing, just continue to lift heavy

Hey Ex2, you seem to be a knowledgable tripfag, is 10lb a month typical of a decent cut?

I'm not seeing that kind of loss, and i'm consistently under maintenance.

well it depends on your current weight and bf%, if you are 100 lbs and 8% bf dropping 10lbs in a month is going to be near impossible

and dropping how many pounds is about how much you eat under maintenance, eating like 100cals/day under what you maintain is not enough to drop a significant amount
>>7213383
I eat fast food on a daily basis, you just have to make sure stay under x cals and make the right decisions (stuff like getting the grilled instead of fried, getting another sandwich instead of large fries, having 2 beers instead of a dozen...etc...)

why is it bad for him to do 5x5 instead of 3x5?

Also losing weight, here, but I do 5x5

I'm about 5'8, 240. I'm maintaining considerably under maintenance (sometimes WAY under), while maintaining my protein and getting my macros, but I don't see much loss, either on the scale or in clothes.

My bodyfat is around 30%, possibly more, and it's my understanding that I should lose weight like a motherfucker at first.

5x5 is a shit-ton of volume; some people can handle it, some people can't. Cutting, obviously, can decrease strength, making the excess volume even harder. Either way, what's more important during cutting is keeping weight on the bar.

because 5x5 on a cut won't allow for adequate muscle recovery from the power days on Norton's routine. You're going to end up stalling on your lifts or risking injury.

- Norton (who has a related Ph.D.) has a very detailed article on simply shredded where he explains all this at length.

When I started, 5x5, was hard, yes, but my weights have increased, even though I'm losing weight.

how the fuck can you have a 110lb difference between your set and 1rm squatweight? all my 5x are better than yours but your 1rms are ludicrously better.
