Though he directs credit to \u201cReg Park\u201d for first writing about 5×5, the bottom line is that the StrongLifts 5×5 community \u201cinfo\u201d all comes from Medhi.<\/p>\n<p>After more than a decade of training, Medhi is a guy who squats just over 400lbs, can\u2019t pull 500, and benches less than 300. I am not criticizing his lifting ability. I am pointing out facts. Medhi is not a competitive powerlifter. Medhi was never a competitive powerlifter. StrongLifts 5×5 is not aimed at powerlifters.<\/p>\n<p>If you visit the StrongLifts website, there is an abundance of free information that is actually quite good. However, you\u2019ll notice something immediately: the target audience is clearly the general public. Medhi isn\u2019t going after serious strength training enthusiasts; Mehdi isn\u2019t going after powerlifters. Medhi titles his articles and videos like this, \u201cLearn The Shocking Truth About How To Build Muscle\u201d!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1376\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerliftingtowin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/lose-weight-bmi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1376\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1376\" src=\"http:\/\/www.powerliftingtowin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/lose-weight-bmi.jpg\" alt=\"These are the kinds of pictures you find on StrongLifts.com.

If you do StrongLifts 5×5, you\u2019ll undoubtedly be on that website and participating in that community. You need to know what you\u2019re involving yourself with.<\/p>\n<p>Consider that <a title=\"A Review of Starting Strength\" href=\"http:\/\/www.powerliftingtowin.com\/starting-strength\">Starting Strength<\/a> was written by Mark Rippetoe, a powerlifter with a decade of personal competitive experience and more than three decades of coaching under his belt. Rippetoe speaks from a place of authority; he commands some level of respect in the strength game. Can you say the same for a guy like Medhi?<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I would never be able to fully \u201cbuy-in\u201d to a program like StrongLifts for my personal powerlifting knowing the background I\u2019ve just provided. Hopefully you understand why I felt it necessary to include this information.<\/p>\n<h2>Planning<\/h2>\n<p>Like Starting Strength, StrongLifts 5×5 is aimed at true blue beginners. There is no competitive plan involved. If you want to do a meet, simply skip your Friday workout and compete that Saturday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>StrongLifts Meet Prep:<\/strong><br \/>\nMon: Day \u201cA\u201d<br \/>\nWed: Day \u201cB\u201d<br \/>\nFri: Rest<br \/>\nSat: Powerlifting Meet<br \/>\nMon: Day \u201cA\u201d<br \/>\nWed: Day \u201cB\u201d<br \/>\nFri: Day \u201cA\u201d<br \/>\netc.<\/p>\n<h2>Periodization<\/h2>\n<p>I hate to sound like a broken record, but as a program intended strictly for novices, StrongLifts 5×5 doesn\u2019t incorporate periodization in the traditional sense of the word. Besides a few exercise variations, you\u2019re going to be doing the same thing every time you to the gym.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, this is appropriate for a novice because novices easily develop strength, muscle, and technique simultaneously. They do not require periods of specialized focus like advanced athletes.<\/p>\n<h2>Programming<\/h2>\n<p>Like Starting Strength, StrongLifts 5×5\u2019s use of the 5 rep set is fantastic. However, by selecting 5×5, the intensity range is pushed down more towards 75-80%. Considering the extra two sets of five as well, StrongLifts 5×5 is more hypertrophy oriented than Starting Strength. This makes it less specific to powerlifting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Worst Thing About StrongLifts:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe most ridiculous thing about the entire StrongLifts program is the part where everyone is supposed to start with the empty bar. This is beyond unnecessary. The reason why this is suggested on StrongLifts is to help lifters develop \u201cproper form\u201d. Unlike Starting Strength, which includes hundreds of detailed pages on how to perform each lift, Medhi has a few YouTube videos. Again, this is where the \u201cinternet marketer\u201d part comes in. By telling people to start with the bar, it isn\u2019t as intimidating for the audience he is going after.<\/p>\n<p>For serious strength trainees, starting your first workout with the bar is a colossal waste of time. For example, if you start at 45lbs (the bar), and work your way up to 185lbs, that would take you 28 workouts or approximately 9-10 weeks. Personally, on my first workout of Starting Strength, I did 185x5x3. I don\u2019t even know if I would have stuck to the program if I had to wait three months before I even started challenging myself. What\u2019s the point?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stalling:<\/strong><br \/>\nStrongLifts 5×5 incorporates a recycling of intensity when you stall. Just like Starting Strength, if you fail to get 5×5 for three straight workouts, you\u2019re supposed to drop 10% off the bar and work your way back up. This is the only variety in programming required during the novice stage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStalling\u201d Squat Example:<br \/>\nMon: 310x5x5<br \/>\nWed: 315×5,5,5,3,3<br \/>\nFri: 315×5,5,4,4,3<br \/>\nMon: 315×5,5,5,5,4<br \/>\nWed: 285x5x5<br \/>\nFri: 290x5x5<br \/>\netc.<\/p>\n<h2>Specificity<\/h2>\n<p>The same criticisms of Starting Strength apply to StrongLifts 5×5. There is no reason to be performing the bench press and overhead press at a 1:1 ratio for a powerlifter. The bench is more important, period. Likewise, doing ten times more squatting than deadlifting is absurd (you do two 5×5 squat workouts for each 1×5 deadlift workout). And while rows might be more useful for powerlifting than power cleans, they\u2019re still not specific and that is a lot of back work that could be better used to do more deadlifting.<\/p>\n<h2>Overload<\/h2>\n<p>StrongLifts 5×5 employs linear progression, which is a perfect way to overload for the novice. They\u2019re capable of new PRs every session so they should attempt them. StrongLifts 5×5 assures this by requiring lifters to add a fixed amount of weight to the bar every single time.<\/p>\n<h2>Fatigue Management<\/h2>\n<p>StrongLifts 5×5 calls for the exact same sets and reps each workout \u2013 just with more weight. In other words, \u201cfatigue\u201d is managed just by giving the novice a day off here and there. This is appropriate because novices are capable of going through a full stress-recovery-adaptation cycle in just a few short days.<\/p>\n<p>That in mind, I think 5×5 three times a week is actually too much squatting for many novices. 3×5 is more appropriate for most. However, I do prefer the 5×5 volume for the upperbody lifts versus 3×5. As I mentioned in my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerliftingtowin.com\/starting-strength\">Starting Strength review<\/a>, most people need a bit more volume for the upperbody.<\/p>\n<h2>Individual Differences<\/h2>\n<p>StrongLifts completely neglects individual differences. Unlike Starting Strength which actually encourages different rates of progression for different demographics, StrongLifts has EVERYONE start with the bar and work up by 5lbs. For reasons already elucidated above, this is absurd. This one idea is enough to greatly downgrade the entire program.<\/p>\n<h2>Overall<\/h2>\n<p>On our scale of \u201cgood\u201d, \u201cbetter\u201d, and \u201cbest\u201d, I\u2019d personally rate StrongLifts 5×5 as a \u201cgood\u201d program for beginners. Just as with Starting Strength, there is a clear lack of specificity for powerlifting. StrongLifts is aimed at the average coach potato not serious strength enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>In all honesty, I just consider StrongLifts 5×5 a far inferior version of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerliftingtowin.com\/starting-strength\">Starting Strength<\/a>. I really don\u2019t understand why anyone would be more attracted to Medhi and his message than the actual science that Rippetoe brings to the table in Starting Strength.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, you have to make your own decisions. StrongLifts is free.
