It burns us….
Holy Moly! I forgot what muscle burn felt like. In the 5×5 program I reach exhaustion well before any burn takes place. The strength gains are consistent though. I suspect the growth may be tissue swelling from the irritation caused by lactic acid build up as well as blood flow and myofibril growth. But the true measure will be in the tape. I am anxious about the results in a months time. I am phasing in the 3×8-12 cycle for all reps at this point.
