Q: What if I don't get all the reps on my 5x5 Squats or Bench Press?
A: If you fail one (or more) of the sets you have two options. Option 1: If you were really close to completing the sets (say you missed 1 or 2 reps on the final set), use the same weight during your next workout. If you got totally destroyed you can drop back down 5# or 10# depending on how bad you got smoked ;)
