Both programs do what they say on the tin. After running each of them for a considerable time I can attest this. If you are a beginner go with 5x5. Intermediates who are training for the pitch rather than the lifting platform will find a good companion in 531, once the initial understanding of running the numbers for this program is established.

Ich habe persönlich das Stronglifts 5x5 für zehn Monate befolgt. Ein simples Programm mit überschaubaren Nachteilen, dass ich jedermann empfehlen würde, die mit Hilfe einer Langhantel stärker werden wollen. Das Experiment wurde im Juni 2014 gestartet und im März 2015 abgeschlossen. Abschlussdaten war für Bankdrücken 122.5kg, 120kg Kniebeuge und 165kg Kreuzheben für Maximalkrafttest.

In total i think that Stronglifts 5x5 is a great program for beginning crossfitters who are aged, before they go into the hardcore WODs from the open, the games or generally into olympic weightlifting. This opinion is based on the facts that the powerlifts used are less technically challenging than the olympic lifts and I think you should build a stringbase before going into the dynamic strength efforts of olympic lifts to avoid that you hurt yourself.

This is a post to help you decide whether you want to do Stronglifts 5x5 whilst preparing for a race in running. If you are an average athlete I would recommend it to prevent injury if you have the time to spare. If your overall goal is general health and fitness this is a great program to run next to a three day running plan. If your main goal is a very fast race time, you might want to step away from this idea. If you want the details of the program itself and the results it can provide please see this Stronglifts review, as I will not describe the program itself in this post. Always consult a doctor before deciding for a special exercise program or diet.

All in all I would only recommend Stronglifts 5x5 in the late teenage years. Parents should be open to the needs of their children, inform themselves and make a decision based on facts which take into account the needs of everybody involved equally based on merit, rather than authority. Different approaches will most likely lead to tension in the household and resources being wasted needlessly (been there, done that). I hope this article is informative and helpful, if your family is faced with the decision of allowing a teenager to go on Stronglifts or not. Please always consult a doctor before deciding for a program. This article covers the dynamics and concerns within a family rather than the program itself. The program is safe and works and I have done it myself and you will find details in my review of Stronglifts 5x5.

The disheartening news is that i start the new year only with 10kg more on my squat then in September. The good new is that I actually get my butt down now and also have bumped up my bench to 90kg 5x5 and my deadlift to 140kg 1x5. If you do not know what the 5x5 Stronglift program is, look it up here.
