Should I do accessoires lifts while on SL5x5?
Some of my bodyparts are falling behind in terms of size, like my shoulders.

Sure - do some light dumbell shoulder presses and flat DB presses on your rest days. Throw in some dumbell rows and curls in there if you want to.

don't fucking do that
do you know what rest days are
they are for resting
>>35074417
dips and chins 3x5 both days
if you want more shoulders do lateral raises on a day and wide elbow rows/ face pulls on b day
if you want more arms then do tricep push down/ skull crushers and chins/ bicep curls

Thanks man.
Should accessoires only be done on rest days?
I've got more to work on, like triceps, traps, and calves...
And should I just do them 8-12 reps for 4 sets?

Thanks for the advice mate.

Easy there. I said light accessories so you don't tax yourself too much on SL. Ride it out until you stall and then go on a BB program that will address your lagging bodyparts.
>>35074448
i don't think you get the concept of 'rest days'.
think about it.

Ive actually been stalling already, I was only 3 months into the program ;_;
To be fair, I've been lifting 2 years prior to starting SL...
I know I fucked up

Stats?
is it okay to switch from 5x5 SL to 3x5 after 1month and a half?

>>35074514

>>35074516
eat more, worry about your belly when you can bench +100kg 5x5
>>35074517
73kg 5'7 but had trouble last week during my 4th and 5th set of squats..
I squat 85kg, 100kg dl, 50kg bench, 35ohp and 52.5 row. 5x5 and I've also added accesories from ICF routine.

>doing sl 5x5
mehdi even says 5x5 is mainly for noobs so they learn form from repetition.
i just do 3x3 and dl 3x1.

Deload by 20% on all of your lifts and jump on Candito's LP. Also go on a Keto-style diet until you are 83-85kg.
If you stall twice on Candito either go on TM - if you want strength - or a PPL - if you are inclined more towards bodybuilding.
>>35074417
You have to work on your rear delts, mang.

You are doing 2 things wrong:
1) You increase volume without the capacity to recover from it
2) You are doing a flat 5x5 when you are starting to have trouble with it.
Your 5x5 from now on should be like this - 70%, 80%, 100 %, 85%, 70%. On the last day you do an AMRAP with 60% after your last 70%.

Thank you, I will do that form now on, hopefully it will go better.. also do you think I should keep bulking or start a cut? I still have a bit of fat but I am really weak.

Eat at maintenance until you stall hard on two of your lifts. Then switch to Candito and drop 5-6 kg.
