5x5 Linear Version For Intermediate Lifters

Type: Fullbody
Level: Intermediate
Days per week: 3 days
Sex: Male & Female
Relatively easy program to understand.  It nicely illustrates the importance of making systematic progression to drive gains and increase the core lifts.  I highly suggest people read the Training Primer I've prepared as you will understand all of training so much better afterward.
