30 NOV 2012 (Night Owl)

So tonight's workout was a little late, started at 9pm my time. Slept in late today, felt amazing and it carried over into tonight's workout I believe. I felt good through every phase, even the squats which are normally my most terrible. It probably also helped that I warmed up for every exercise. I'm looking forward to working out tomorrow and then that rest day on Sunday.

Back Squat:
95# 1x5
115# 1x3
135# 1x1

W/W:  165# 3x5

Bench Press:
115# 1x8

W/W:  135# 3x5

Deadlift:
W/W:  225# 1x5

I'm looking forward to going up Monday. The weights are going to be increased by 5# except for Deadlifts, they'll go up by 10#.

Squat: 170
Bench: 140
Deadlift: 235

Tomorrow's Crossfit day, should be fun.

26 Nov 2012 (Monday)

So I've started working out again, no big deal there. The next three months will be focused on getting stronger with the eventual goal of reaching a total lift weight of 1000 lbs. with a one rep max for Bench, Dead-lift and Squat. I figure my goals per lift will need to be somewhere within this range:

Squat:  350 lbs.
Bench: 250 lbs. 
Dead-lift:  400 lbs.

I'll set December 31st 2012 as the day that I do my One Rep Max test for that month. I'll be doing a very similar methodology to the Starting Strength Workout but it will most likely have slower progressions. In addition I will be doing Body Weight workouts. The first three months I figure will look like this:

Monday:
Starting Strength

Squat: 3x5
Bench: 3x5
Dead-lift: 1x5


Tuesday:

AM: 
8x200m Sprints

L-Sit:  60 Seconds

Today's Workout:

So my workout results from today were:

Squat:  3 x 5 @ 165#
Bench:  3x5 @ 135#
Deadlift:  1x5 @ 225#

I'll keep this weight for the first week. Depending on how it feels on Friday we'll see if I move up or keep it the same into the next week.
