Good session bud, might be worth googling 'Frankie NY 5x5' it's a really good routine that brought my strength on no end.

Hi mate !!

Yes I agree 5x5 would be good as the more sets and reps you do the quicker you'll learn technique

Starting the 'Frankie NY 5x5' 2moz.
If I can get through the snow, already an inch on the ground and no signs of it stopping :-)


Any ideas on what sort of gains I can expect strength wise over the next 2 months?
