[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle age would be a terrible time to start lifting 5x5. OP, ignore these guys. Check out IIFYMwomen.org or Sohee Lee[/quote] I wonder why you imagine that to be true. I mean, you won’t get as strong as quickly as if you started younger, but it’s great for health. I started at 50 as a lifelong runner with bad knees, and at 190 pounds I got up to 250 bench, 300 squat and 400 deadlift. Not impressive but my back and knees felt much better. [/quote] Why is your bench so high abc squat so low. Something doesn’t sound right [/quote] Different PP but my bench is pretty high compared to my squat and DL (call it 290 bench 350 squat 415 DL). I have no idea why that is but I don't really care. It's not because I bench more often than I squat, or that I'm skipping leg day - I bench 2x a week and squat / DL 3x a week. [/quote]
