Starting Strength Advance Novice
Wednesday, week 20, light day
Squats:
225 2x5
Bench:
185 3x5 (+10) Shoulder is feeling really good, will probably make a 5 lb jump then start 2.5 This is, and likely will continue to be, my weakest exercise. Cursed with monkey arms.
Back Extensions:
BW x 10
BW x 10
BW x 15 After doing nothing but near 5RM BB exercises for 3-5 sets for the last 20 weeks, this felt foolishly easy. Wanted to start light, first time doing them.
Chins:
BW x 12
BW x 12
BW x 12
Hoping to make it to some time near the end of the year on novice progression. My year end goals, which will mark six months of strength training are:
Squat 315 x 5
DL 380 x 5 or 425 x 1
Press: 135 x 5 (lost two months of progress to injury)
Bench: 210 x 5(same as above)
