[Help] Critique my 5X5

[EEthanShire]

As I am new at body building my knowledge on proper techniques and dieting are limited. The routine I've been using for the past 2 months have shown little results in both muscle definition and weight gain, so I thought it is best to consult the people who know more.

Because I don't have any access to other equipment except for the barbell, my routine is based wholly on the barbell.

- 5'9"

[Eat it or Beat it!!!]

dude dont wanna be rude but 5 x 5 means exactly that. a main exercise done with 5 sets of 5 reps...this looks nuthing remotely close to a 5 x 5 set up.

i recommend you read through the stickies for some ideas

yah, like EIoBI said: not to be rude but that has nothing to do with 5x5
