The Advantages of the 3x5 Workout - Weekand
To be picked up and put down. For best results, follow the programmes for a minimum of a month and a maximum of three. However, we've also included a bodyweight workout and a dumbbell workout at the bottom of this page, which are ideal if you're looking for a quick workout or are short on time. "Like any programme, you want to stick to it for at least four to six weeks" 3-Day Full Body WorkoutFor your 3-day workout, your week will be split into three sessions: push, pull and supersets. The idea is that you target each muscle group twice per week, while the third session encourages you to push harder with what Silverman refers to as an 'antagonistic superset session'.In the first two workouts of the week, sessions are broken down into a number of sections. You'll start the session with a warm-up, so rather than working out on a treadmill in order to warm up for a weights session, you'll use bands and bodyweight to get you fully prepared. Next you'll work on strength, and we'd encourage you to try and increase the weights you're using by a little bit each week. 'Even if you can only manage a 1kg increase, it’s still progress,' says Silverman.Over the course of one to three months we also want you to try and maximise volume. To do this, each week you'll add an extra rep. Finally, we have included some accessory work. This is where we add in exercises for muscle groups that are generally lacking or which help with major lifts.

Just larger weights? Also, what sort of differences should I notice in my body when it comes to doing 3x5 over 5x5?Thanks. As you said, this has been discussed ad nauseam. Heavier weights, and much easier to increase the weight 3 times a week without stalling. I was a bit more curious as to what happens to your body. Bigger muscles, denser muslces, etc? These guys trained 3x5:This guy trains 5x5:Seems pretty obvious to me. Originally Posted by gat-malice I was a bit more curious as to what happens to your body. Bigger muscles, denser muslces, etc? What effects do you think lifting heavier weights and progressing faster without stalling will have on your body? lmfao that's hilarious thanks guys =) SS is a program based on actual coaching experience. Stronglifts is a rip off of SS and has no basis for it's programming and changes. The answer is that you'll get farther with 3x5. If you follow everything exactly as Mehdi indicates, you will get terribly frustrated because Mehdi does not have much practical experience coaching people or lifting weights. As for differences in your body: let's look at this diachronically. If you do 5x5 and follow the StrongLifts advice for 6 months, odds are you'll be stuck around 245x5x5 at best. If you do Starting Strength as indicated in the book and follow Rippetoe's advice, there's a good chance you'll be around 315x3x5 on the squat. Since you'll be much stronger, your body will probably have bigger muscles. Your penis might be a couple inches longer, too, but size isn't what matters. Originally Posted byComments

Print Recipe Cards on Standard PaperOne of the cheapest ways to print your recipe cards is to print on regular paper or cheap card stock. Then, you can cut them out and either laminate them or glue/tape them to 4x6" or 3x5" index cards. The index cards may run you less than a dollar for a package of 100 cards. You can use double-sided tape or glue stick. Or, you can use clear wide packing tape to both attach the recipe to the index card and laminate it at the same time.Pros: Cheap. No messing with printer settings. Laminating will help protect against spills.Cons: Must cut them out yourself.B. Printing directly onto 4x6 or 3x5 Index CardsIf your printer is capable of printing on small index cards, this option is very slick. It's cheap AND you don't have to cut out the recipe cards. Most printers have one of two ways to print a postcard (i.e. recipe card or index card):If your printer contains a separate tray/slot to insert postcards, envelopes, and other non-standard size paper, simply insert the recipe card into the tray/slot and print.If your printer contains a tray with sliding bars that you can adjust to fit the size of a recipe card, envelope, and other non-standard size paper, place the recipe card on the tray, adjust the bars to fit and print.Pros: Index cards are inexpensive, and you don't have to cut them out.Cons: Requires a printer that can handle 4x6 or 3x5 card stock. Printer settings may be difficult to get right.My Experience: For the 4x6 recipe cards, I had to change the Printer properties before my printer would let me print on index cards (set to Postcard type paper). In the end, they looked great, but the cards were slightly curved due to the rollers in the printer.
2025-04-13A 4x6 photo to other common sizes, it's helpful to consider the dimensions in inches. Here are some comparisons:* 4x6 photo is equivalent to: + A standard letter-sized piece of paper (8.5 x 11 inches) with a quarter of its width and half its height removed. + A credit card (3.5 x 2.13 inches) with about twice the length and one-third the width.* Compared to other popular photo sizes: + 3x5 photo is slightly shorter and narrower than a 4x6. + 5x7 photo is larger in both dimensions, with an extra inch in height and two inches in width. + 8x10 photo is much larger, with double the width and height of a 4x6.To help visualize these comparisons, here's a rough outline:``` +---------------+ | 8.5x11 | +---------------+ | | v +-----------+-----------+ | 4x6 | 3x5 | +-----------+-----------+ | | v +-----------+-----------+ | 5x7 | Larger | +-----------+-----------+ | | v +-----------+-----------+ | 8x10 | Much larger | +-----------+-----------+```Keep in mind that these comparisons are approximate and intended to provide a rough idea of the relative sizes. If you have specific design or printing requirements, it's always best to consult with a professional or check the specifications of your chosen print service.4x6 photo size in mmA common photo size!The standard dimensions for a 4x6 photo are:* Width: 101.6 mm (4 inches)* Height: 152.4 mm (6 inches)So, the dimensions of a 4x6 photo in millimeters (mm) are:* 102 mm x 153 mm4x6 photo size converterA 4x6 photo size converter is a tool
