Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!

**From the 2012 Thread**

If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs

If you have questions about the SS programs, look here:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ

Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started.

Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE:

If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point.

I'm curious if that was your entire workout? Was it shoulders/traps or something? I've never really seen a just traps workout.

I'm just curious.

Only if I successfully pull it tomorrow. Singles day and my hips feel super tight tonight.

SIMPLY RED, COME BACK! I wasn't being a jerk. You have to put a little more detail into what you mean.

Hilarious. I wasn't crossfitting today. I've been doing my buddy's program. It was leg day.

Leg day for me is tomorrow. Can't wait to puke!

How much are you guys pulling? I havent pulled in about 5 months, was able to hit 550x3 through 5/3/1. I haven't been able to pull that since college. Been using john meadows program for a while and he doesn't dead, just squats and stiff leg, if that.

I can't dead without severe pain. I have to go whimpy on squats. Two bulging discs in lower back.
