5x5 stronglift system - is it effective?

Today i'm gonna review you the 5x5 system. It's program for strentgh and mass. You are doing 5 reps and 5 sets per exercise.

What is 5x5?

Monday :
Back squat 5x5 (same weight)
Bench press 5x5
Barbel row 5x5
1 excercise for triceps 3x8
abs 3x10-20

Wednesday:
Deadlift 5x5
Military press 5x5
Chin ups with weight 5x5
Bicep curl 3x8
abs

Friday :
Squat 5x5 pyramid ( if you do 5x5 squats with 80kg, on friday you'll do 60 65 70 75 80 kg x 5 reps)
Horizontal bench press 5x5
Barbel row 5x5
Triceps
abs

* I give monday, wednesday and friday because you have to have 1 day (at least) rest between workouts.
Suitable for?
5x5 is suitable for everybody, except the begginers. You have to know how to squat and deadlift(not only) correctly or you may get injury. If you want to build muscle and put on weights, 5x5 is very good choice for you!
My vision of the program:
I use this program and now im on the 10th week. I am very impressive! My strenght grew up, my muscles grew up, my kilos grew up. Very nice program! With suitable, carbs rich(protein too) eating you'll have very good results.
