    Default Link's Training Journal Building with BRO-Tech- It's a Celebration

    Introduction- Hello, my screen name is MISSINGLINK but you can call me Link. I have been lifting for over a year now and have been on various programs like the single factor 5x5, Westside/5x5 hybrid, WS4SVB, and WS4BB for a brief stint. My training went haywire and I was not PR'ing in the big 3. With the help of a fellow board member I believe that my training is headed in the right direction for some blue in the big 3.

    Workout went very well. The front squats were nice to get the blood flowing for the deadlifts. Deadlifts went well. However, the last set was a bear. I now have a divet on my left hand by the ring finger from the skin missing. It looks like somebody used my hand as a fairway. Doing 5 sets of 3 on the deads is very hard. I wonder how it compares to doing singles at higher weights. The PR on the deads was for overall volume. MISSINGLINK OUT>

    Ha! Michigan is the only college football team (besides Oklahoma) that I actually enjoy watching lose.

    Good to see you keeping a journal on here, Link. I'll probably reply in both this journal and the BB.com one, since we've already got the ball rolling there with your training plan.

    I think I'll switch to this one. I have so many subs @ bb.com that the ones that I really want to keep up with get buried.

    Matt, I grew up as an OU fan. There, now I've got both you and Dave76 mad at me.

    My sister and brother-in-law each have at least one degree from OU. She also went to Nebraska, I have other relatives who attended OSU, KState, and LSU, among notable schools in the area. I'm a graduate of the University of Tulsa. As far as football prowess goes, at times we've had a pretty good basketball team.

    Thanks Matt. I am interested in seeing the feedback from here.

    Whats the odds of having a MIchigan and Oklahoma fan on a website with a Texas and Notre Dame fan aswell.

    Nice deadlifts btw.
