    Default Usgetata's SS log ... ex-SLer!

    37 y/o Asian male, 5'6", 140 lbs.

    My little history: I was always a skinny guy all my life (118 lbs!!) until I started going to the gym 1 and half year ago. I first discovered StrongLifts and followed the program for like a year and made what I considered very good progress. At that point I felt like it took too long to complete the workout and I started staling on my lifts. After the Christmas + New Year break I decided to change my workout to SS. I read the book, deload my lifts and work back up to improve my forms according to the SS standards.

    So today I think it's good time to start my SS log:
    P.S. I started micro-loading with 1.25 lbs plates since I failed increasing weight on BP, OHP and SQ 3 times previously.
