My Weight Gain (Starting Strength) to 220lb

March 1st, 2011

Tue Mar 01, 2011 4:39 pm

[  Mood: Happy ][ Reading Currently: Reading  ]

Morning weight: 206.5 pounds

(Day late writing this up. Happy an older powerlifter fixed my dead lift form, my legs were too far apart. Also happy my knee is not hurting and I could do squats! Will be adding dips and pullups to workout days finally).

Format is x/x/x, weight/repetitions/sets

Today's workout:

Squats
Bench Press
Dead Lift
Dips


Squats:
Warmup:
135lb/5/2
155lb/4/1
175lb/3/1
195lb/2/1
205lb/1/1

Work set:
220lb/5/3 (up 10 pounds since last workout)



Bench Press:
Warmup:
45lb/10/1
135lb/5/1
155lb/4/1
175lb/3/1
195lb/1/1

Work set:
205lb/5/2 (5 pounds up from last workout)
205lb/4/1 (someone came to help me lift the bar, and I took like 10 seconds to explain to him not to help me on my 5th rep. Then I failed rep. I blame him).



Dead Lift:
Warmup:
135lb/5/1
235lb/5/1 (back to doing deadlifts properly now that someone fixed my technique).
