Well i'm a week shy in completing the 4 week challenge but there is a few reasons for this.
I selected the wrong weights, 2x16kgs where only challenging on certain exercises such as doubled front squat and double snatch combo, pressing and rwoing variants where not tough enough.
I think the programme calls for heavier weights, my training partner is completing it with 2x24kgs, it will be intersting to see how he progressses.
I'm getting an Olympic bar soon and would like to complete some 5x5 training with that.
I really like the 5x5 format, really simple but seems to work with the right weight selection, in the end i was using 8kg&16kg doubled up and it was taking ages to train and on some exercises didn't feel at safe.
That's it for now, it's been fun.
