Chris J - NLP Training Logs
Hey SS Community,
Little history...
I’m a 31 y/o male in San Antonio. I’m 5’ 9” and weigh about 168 currently.
I haven’t lifted since I was about 16 y/o and a wrestler. Since then I’ve had spurts I’d trail running and yoga.
To make sure I started with proper form, I drove up to Luke’s Barbell Club in Austin. SS coach, Jarrod Schaefer, coached me through the 4 lifts.
Eating “like a beast” for muscle gains. Going easy on the milk. 1 pint/day helps me reach calorie/macro goals.
I’ve already done 4 workouts so I’ll put those in this post...

Got over body weight in DL today. Getting heavy! Nervous about the next session...
Edit: talked to SS coach, Jarrod Schaefer. He said I can drop to 5 lb. increases now on DL. Has me sliiiightly less nervous about next session haha.
Also, passed 8000 lbs. in total lifted today. Pretty cool!
