    Default Recovery Log - first real injury a year into Starting Strength

    • starting strength seminar april 2024
    • starting strength seminar jume 2024
    • starting strength seminar august 2024
    Started my LP in June of 2017.

    Ended with 1RMs of:
    Squat 415
    Bench 235
    Press 170
    Deadlift 405

    After 2 rounds of 12 week blocks of HLM, I started July of 2018 with 1RMs of:
    Squat 445
    Bench 255
    Press 200
    Deadlift 465

    Two weeks later I tore my meniscus and sprained my MCL (not from lifting).

    Below is what I’ve done so far on the road to recovery.

    Squat 225x5x1
    Press 125x5x1
    Deadlift 275x5x1

    Squats were tight and depth wasn’t there

    After talking with Andy Baker and Dr. John Petrizzo, I have a new plan.

    Going to replace squats with Leg Press for now, twice a week for frequency, at 3 sets of 10. Going to do an LP until intensity gets to my body weight (335).

    At that point I’ll add back in volume.

    Leg Press 275x10x3
    Press 135x5x2
    Barbell Row 185x5x3
