Bill Starr 5x5 Excel Spreadsheet
I made a Google Spreadsheet for the StrongLifts 5x5
Hi everyone !
I just finished the first week of StrongLifts, so I'm only at the very beginning. I was planning to log my lifts with a pad and pen, but I forgot to bring it with me as soon as the second session. So I was taking notes on my cellphone and I ended up typing in a Google Spreadsheet.
I am sharing it with you here if you'd like to use it. I suppose you can copy it to your own Google Drive account. Let me know if any trouble. I use Metric units but it's fine with Imperial as well.
I found it simpler than Mehdi's spreadsheets, but it's only a matter of taste. The first sheet is a clear log, that is to be used during the workout. You can edit the file offline as well, it will synchronize later when you have a connection.

When I found the Madcow 5×5 workout spreadsheet based on Bill Starr’s Intermediate 5×5 routine, I wasn’t even thinking about “strength gains”. I just wanted to get bigger (because I’ve been around 175lbs forever and really wanted to hit 190 or 200). Now I look forward to out lifting.
The second sheet has the graphs. I was initially intending to have one single graph with all the exercises progress, with different colors depending on the difficulty, but Google Spreadsheet is harder to use than I thought. If you'd like to modify it, I accept any suggestion and the comments are allowed on the spreadsheet itself.
