Giving it another run

I don't know if I'm an advanced novice or intermediate but I'm trying linear programming again.

Monday 9/8/14

Bw242lbs

Sq 135 x 5, 225x3, 275 5 rep 3 sets belted.
Bench barx20, 135x5, 185x3, 205x3, 225 5 x 3 sets
Dl 135x5, 225x3, 315 x5
Bb curls 95 x5x2

Time to really push it to the edge.

I probably started after you left but could you remind us of your age, height, and weight, please. Your re starting weights are good. It will be interesting to watch your progression.

Sunday
290x5 sq
140 x4 press (missed last rep on last set
Dl 395 x 5

Wednesday soreness bw245 lbs
Squat 295 x3 right adductor killing me. Rubbing on it looks well, don't do it in public.
Bench 230x 5
Dl 405x4
Probably should have reset weights lower to get momentum but I'm friggin greedy and pay for it like an idiot.

Carson,
I'm 6'1" 30 years old.

Impressive weights. How far did you live from Walled Lake?

Nice lifts, guy! I grew up in Detroit in the 60s and then W. Bloomfield in the 70s.

I keep seeing videos of women squatting 285 or 270 and ask myself how I can possibly do better...

Front squat 135 x 15

DL 420 x 5

bw 245.5

My sister in law wants to get into lifting as "cross-training" so I will have her video me next time in the gym. Motivation.

We moved from the Chicago area to SE Michigan upon retirement. Al Gore promised us Global Warming which of course didn't happen. We assumed a tropical climate in Michigan throughout the year. That Gore was a big big liar!


Actually, it's cheaper here and we have a large extended family in the area. Our children and grandchildren still live in the Chicago area. We go back frequently.
