Welcome back to Iron Sights! Today, CeCe, Jeff and I talk about 5X5 Training  and the pros/cons that come along with it. You've probably heard of this type of training and all the muscle building and increased strength promises that come with it. In this episode, we're going to break it down for you so that you can implement it into your strength training routine the right way. 5x5 training is a strength training method that focuses on using compound exercises to target multiple muscle groups at once. The program is named because it includes five sets of five reps that are performed for each exercise. The program is designed to increase overall strength and muscle mass by using heavy weights and progressive overload. The exercises typically include the squat, deadlift, bench press, and military press. The key to success with 5x5 training is consistent adherence to the program and progressive increase in weight over time.Timestamps:00:00 Exercises Selection 01:58 Implement The 5 By 5 Routine 05:03 Strength Training Recovery 07:21 Results Of 5x5  08:35 Scott Howell's Experience With 5x5 13:27 CeCe's Experience19:16 Learn The Basics 22:37 Cons Of 5x523:42 Loads25:31 Where To Start29:45 Increase Muscle 32:39 Movements Patterns 37:01 Bilateral Movements39:32 Rotational Components42:00 Overview Of The Routine Red Dot Fitness Training Programs: https://www.rdftrainonline.comOnline membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ironsightspodcast
