Want to start SL 5x5...
How do I start? How do I determine how much weight to start with? Is there a good guide for beginners? Is there maybe some other type of a plan you guys would recommend to hit 1 hour at the gym for 3 days a week? Also I would love it if the plan was geared towards upper body and core.
