Is there something wrong with doing 5x5 program with more exercises?
Same boat as you guys here, I love doing the compound exercises but it just didn't seem like it was enough. I start off with the basic squat/deadlift/press then I started incorporating pulls-ups/push-ups, some tricep extensions and pull downs.
Started going to the gym in June but never really took it seriously til August. Now I've been getting good improvements.
