A few questions

[Dan3088]

First off iv been doing ss for exactly two months and in that time iv improved across the board here are the stats in kg
Sq 40x3x5
Bp 40x3x5
Dl 40x3x5
Op 20x3x5
Rows 40x3x5

Now
Sq 120x3x5
Bp 77.5x3x5
Dl 95x3x5
Op 57.5x3x5
Rows 67.5

Iv just started power cleans. My first question is is this on track or low for 2 months in?
Second question iv added dips in as bench assistance and curls because I'm vain will this cause any problems in the long run?
And finally iv been struggling on the press not hitting my reps last work out I did a back off set with light weight for 20 reps will this help or hinder progress?

1. Your numbers seem okay for two months, but your deadlift should be higher. You are also only supposed to do one set for deadlift, not 3x5. What is your height and weight.
2. I do not think that will cause any problems.
3. It will hinder progress.

[Carlos Daniel]

Yes, there's either something wrong with the dead or the squat.

Damn 120 squats in 2 months

[Dan3088]

I started the deadlift and bench at the same rate 5 kg per work out same as the squat but my squat is slowing while my deadlift is still making easy gains I was just gonna continue continue like this as it will over take my squat soon. Should I make larger increases on the deadlift to get it ahead of my squat?
I'm 5,11 and 92kg I started at 87kg but that was more fat.

If you're making good progress on your deads I'd just leave things the way they are. Have you started microloading on the press yet? Going up like 1.25 kgs at a time? This will help more than a back-off set of 20.

[Dan3088]

Yeah I started fast on the press and stalled almost imidietly so I reset it and started going up at 2.5 kg at a time as the smallest plate I have is 1.25 missed a few reps last workout 3x3 instead of 3x5 at 60

[hamburgerfan]

Get some smaller plates.

[Horowitz]

Buy some small ankle weights, get some chain from a home improvement store, magnets. You'll figure something out. Microloading will help your press and bench more so than dips and a backoff set of 20.

By god, get some bigger increases on the dead. The last guy I trained was doing 240x5 lbs (110 kg) after two weeks or something.
