I’m trying to get bigger and stronger and I hear that SS is the best way. I haven’t been as consistent as I would’ve liked the past 3 months and today reflects that.
Bench 195 I missed the last rep of the third set of 5.
Squat 240 3-5,
Deadlift 275 1-5
I probably jumped back too quickly to repping 195 (it’s where I stopped during BLS ) so I’m open to suggestions on whether or not to go down in weight on that exercise.
Also, I know I need to eat so much more. Working on that.
