Hi all,
I discovered SS some time ago, but wasn't able to train until now. Today was my first workout. I have limited lifting experience and am reading SS to improve form/technique.
Age - 25
Height - 6'4
Weight - 195-200lbs
Warm-up:
5 min on the bike
Squats with just the bar 2x8
Squats 95lbs 2x5
Work Sets
Squat 135lbs 3x5
Bench 135lbs 3x5
Deadlift 135lbs 1x5
I realize that my squat and deadlift should be higher but it is my first workout so I'm easing into it, plus I have hockey tonight and don't want to kill my legs. I will be adding 5lbs per week on my squat and deadlift because I want to work on my technique/form (I know SS prescribes to add 5lbs per workout at the beginning). Anyways, slow and steady is the way I want to approach this.
