I've been doing 5x5 for about a month now. Everything except OH Press has been tracking very nicely---a bit of challenge but I can always make it through with a focus on form and be prepared for next workout.
But I'd like to understand better your concern about volume. If I face this deficiency, what will it feel like? How should I get around it?

- tel 12y agoThat's a good point. I kept attributing it to missing form, which is probably not half bad to focus on, but maybe this is more of a mere "suck it up and go" sort of situation, haha
