Schwiggity's Log: Starting Strength Preamble

[Schwiggity]

Good work with the Press and Row PR's Schwiggity. Sucks about having to make the big jump in the bench though. Hopefully you are able to microload sooner rather than later.

Got my 1.25 plates the other day. Plus I think Orlando Barbell has micro plates, so once I start going there, I think I won't even need to bring my own.

Workout A

Squat: 65 lb. Low-bar: 2x5; Tried high-bar, and it was killing my traps. Only got to 4 reps.
Bench Press: 127.5 lb. 3x5 (got my 1.25 lb. plates in. Good shit)
RDL: 95 lb. 3x5
Lat Pulldown (Pull-Up Grip): 120 lb. 1x5 (was too heavy for the full 8 reps so I dropped back down to the next increment, 100 lb.); 100 lb. 2x8
Stretching: 8 minutes

I herpaderped and had some binging time this past week/weekend. Hence, I didn't workout on Friday. Did my first workout with Schwab today. Mostly just showing me the 3 lifts; however with a shorter ROM at first. He said to increase the ROM week by week.

I don't recall the exact setsXrepsXweight for all of what I did, but I have a rough estimation:

High-Box Safety Bar Squat: worked up to 135 lb. 2-3 sets of 5
Bench Press: worked up to ~125 lb. 2-3 sets of 5
3-Board Press: 145 lb. 2x5
Rack Pull (3rd pinhole up): worked up to 155 lb. 1x5

Squat Day

Safety Bar Box Squat: 115 lb. 3x5 Box height made me be roughly parallel; maybe an inch or two high
45 Degree Leg Press: 180lbx12; 230lbx10
Lying Leg Curl: 70lbx12; 90lbx10
Foam Rolling + Stretching: 6 minutes

Went over to my friends to do Week 3 Day 3 of Ease Into 5K afterward.

Made a new log because the name of this one was bugging me. I'm OCD like that.
