    The 5x5 is new to me tbh, too early to tell results. I'm only doing it on 5 exercises across the whole workout week. It's tiring I can tell you that. Maybe because I am still doing my other work for the same muscles or maybe I just need to get used to it all.

    Plan on running it until end of Feb I think, that gives 2 good months at it, and evaluate.

    Sounds like a good switch up, especially if your still doing your regular work, too! It's helped me get past some sticking points as well in the past. TBH - I like adding them in on certain presses obviously, but also some tricep work... if I stop getting DOMS it's usually in my tris first(idk why) but it helps me if i were to do say CG bench(5x5) s/s'd with a shaping exercise 4-5x 10 failing b4 10 and RPing it until I get to 10 for each set(that way I know I'm still hitting true positive failure - and then you can always throw in negs at the end or partials)

    Looks good and it sure is tiring keeping that same intensity!

    Thanks, GGR. It was very weird because hiccups preceded it and lasted for several hours and then it was a race to the toilet for the remainder of it. Better today though.

    Can you catch this crap through the internet - called in sick today for the first time in 5 years. Thanx for the Padilla pic Kel, amazing. Old schooler in me still prefers the smaller mid-section.

    Getting BW, she's twisting & digging around without the tube filling. No pain, but my face just slightly indicated that I was not happy. Should we start over on the other arm she asks? Ya think?

    Good luck with your issues Cuz.

    Wow. I've been very fortunate with all the bw and drawing I've had. They have never missed the vein. At the hematologist I had a girl put a 16 gage in me and never felt a thing. Had another girl I felt every bit of it. At my primary doc ( cholesterol every 6 months) the girl is the best I've ever had. But every nurse that sees my veins is like omg this will be easy. Nice to be vascular.

    Prox this basically happened to me a few weeks ago. Just before new year.

    Went and got my yearly CAT scan with contrast for my heart. Plus needed an updated one for my new cardiologist since insurance changed but anyways.

    Guy goes to do IV misses, moves over and misses again. Tells me I have "tuff skin" moves to other arm and misses again!!! Now I'm pissed. (It's funny I hate needles hahahha). He is like let me get my partner to try. This dude comes in and tries inner elbow area. Hits a nerve pain shots right up the bicep I jump. He yells at me and tells me it's my fault cause I jumped. I almost slapped him hahha. So then they go get the third person. She comes in without a second thought gets the very first vein the first guy tried. Didn't even feel it.

    5 freaking times. All bruised. I looked like a junkie for a couple days

    Then I lucked out, sorry bro, that sucked. It really looked like she had a direct hit the first time though. Actually I told her to not hit my radial nerve, thats when she gave up. Haven't had this happen before, maybe she was a rookie.

    Nice workout Sfla.
