    I’m a 41 y/o Woman and I follow the KISS (keep it simple stupid) methodology to my training. 3 days a week, I do the StrongLifts 5x5 . After I do 5 sets each of the big 5 (DL, Squat, OHP, BP, and/or Barbell Row) I then get my cardio with a 15-20 min Kettlebell circuit and choose 3 moves (and do 3sets of ten) from the following: snatch (set for each arm), clean (set for each arm), press for each arm, windmills, front squats, front lunges, back or kick stand lunges, side lunges, and/ or gorilla rows. I wrap it up with 5 KB farmer carries, and I’m out of the gym in about an hour and a half. I do a rest day every other day, and after Saturday’s set, I take Sunday and Monday off (usually do the leg exercises on Sat, so 2 days of rest is needed).

    Doing a Pause Squat with Compensatory Acceleration Training (CAT) has immensely helped my Squat.

    Paused reps help every lift. Also seen success with snatch grip deadlifts and kettlebell swings. DB work is great for presses, along with dips and full ROM tricep extensions.

    Great video. I've passed the novice phase and now I'm looking for simple assistance exercises. Other videos have too many assistance exercises to choose from. Very confusing.
    I've chosen mine already from this video. 😎

    On double B workout week I just swapped the deadlift for an rdl 3x8 and first couple times the Doms was unreal which surprised I even got them.

    The only assistance exer exercises that I do are rows, chinups, and bi/tri once in a while. Other then that I stick to the main 4. I am one of those high bar squatters LOL 😂 I have very tight shoulders and it took a lot of pain just to get to the high bar position, so it's that or nothing. If I could do low bar I would.

    I'm 49. I tried SS NLP early this year, and I stopped after 6 weeks due to excessive fatigue. Squatting 3 times per week is too much for me, Deadlifting is too much for me. Yes I can do it, but the remainder of my day (I train early) and the next day are miserable, shattered tired. I eat well, sleep as good as I can, and of course have employment and kids. I now train close to a type of High Intensity body building style: squat once per week 3 sets only, no deadlifts, heavy bench once per week 3 sets, same for every body part, heavy as I can, lift to failure, train 3 days per week, and I'm getting stronger and bigger with manageable fatigue.

      You aren’t supposed to continue phase 1 on NLP for longer than you can recover from it. Sounds like you needed but did not apply a programming change.

      Depends have you just started lifting or have you been training it for a while already? You can do 500 in 3 to 5 for sure. Start pulling heavy 1x5 1 time a week with a back off deadlift such as SLDL for 3x5 if you are intermediate. If not do starting strength

      It’s hard to get to elite status (for your age) in only 2 years. You would need everything working for you (high-end coaching, no injuries, heavy body weight, great genetics, diet, sleep, etc).

    why not just reduce the weight on deadlift,get 5 reps,and add 5lbs a week or 2 later?
    Hows db bench press ,db shoulder press,going to push up barb bench?
    RIP said,”dbs ARE A WASTE,even he was guilty”.
    Every excuse NOT TO add weight to squats,bench,deadlift.
