Need to get myself an interesting program in 2017. I think it's time to retire Stronglifts 5x5. I really have exhausted that program after using it for more than 15 months. If you've got any recommendations, leave a comment. It would preferably be a program backed by a nice little app that is just as nice as the SL5x5 app. :-)

Not sure what to make of todays squats. I felt weak, and decided that todays work set would be 3x8x100kg. When finished with that I decided to go for a rep of 120. T.hat felt easy, so 140 .. 150. and 160 also went up. Turned out I wasn't as weak as I thought today.

I had hoped for more than 6 reps of 100kg. Didn't happen. The next two sets of 5 was really easy though. Then didn't feel like asking for another spotter, so went for some easy sets of 80kg.

There are probably more than enough 5/3/1 apps
