    Robert
    26 years old, 5' 5", 165 lbs

    Last Sets of LP
    Squat: 275x5
    Deadlift:325x5
    Bench: 205x5
    Press: 125x5

    Took a week off before starting TM and screwed around with some 1 rep maxes one day that week
    Squat: 325x1
    Deadlift: 385x1, tried 405 and couldn't lock out
    Bench: 235x1, no bounce, no pause

    I know my press should be higher, but I'm stalled on the other lifts, and I'm okay with the press increasing at a lower rate than if I kept it on novice programming. I screwed up in the beginning by trying to sub dumbbells for barbell (idiot). Maybe these lifts aren't justified for intermediate programming, but I'm giving the TM a go. I'm thinking this will get me up 175/180 lbs BW, the lifts I have no idea. I don't have many posts on my novice thread because I started posting late into my LP.

    Volume Day:
    Squat: 245x5x5
    Bench:185x5x5
    Deadlift: 335x1x5
