I've been really psyched about going to the gym lately, but I need some ideas on how to supplement my workouts without completely killing myself. My current program has alternating workouts, as follows:

A: 5x5 squats, 5x5 bench press, 5x5 rows
B: 5x5 squats, 5x5 overhead press, 1x5 deadlifts

Weight ideally increases by 5 lbs each time, but sometimes I'll stall... no biggie, really.

Anyways, those workouts are too intense to do on sequential days, it's more of an every-other-day thing (3x a week, effectively). What I need is some ideas on stuff to do on in-between days. Cardio is an option, though I really love strength training. Any thoughts?

Wow, it's amazing the changes that even a mere week of dedicated working out have wrought. "Muffin top" is pretty much gone, belly fat is shrinking, arms and legs are firmer. w00t.gif
