This spreadsheet will help you set up your StrongLifts 5x5 program. Follow the instructions on this page, then go to the Program sheet to get started.
Step 1:
Choose the unit of weight that you prefer. Enter 1 in the field below if you're working in kilograms or 2 if you're working in pounds.
Units
(1 = kg, 2 = lb)
Step 2:
Enter your starting date, body weight, and body fat percentage. If you dont have a way to measure body fat, it's OK to start the program without it, but you should get yourself a body fat caliper.
Step 3:
If you are a new lifter, you're finished. Go to the Program worksheet and begin your training. If you're an experienced lifter, enter the heaviest lifts you've done in the Weight column below, and the number of reps for which you lifted those weights in the Reps column.

Think Long-Term.
1-3 months is only the beginning. If the above represents what you could achieve in 12 weeks, imagine what you'd achieve in 24 weeks. Now think about where you'll be 52 weeks from now if you keep doing this. Strength training is a marathon, not a sprint keep that in mind.
