University of Washington 5x5 Workout Schedule
This spreadsheet will build a 14 week workout cycle for you based
upon a University of Washington strength routine utilizing a 5
sets of 5 repetitions strategy. At the end of the cycle you should
realize approximately a 10% increase in your single rep max.

Don't overdue it on assistance work while following this cycle and
be sure to do a couple warm-up sets in addition to the actual work
sets.
Enter your current SRM and the Starting date of the cycle
in the appropriate locations and the spreadsheet will give
