Gym 101005

Day two of Strong Lifts:

Warm-up 1 mile run in 6:37

5x5 175# Squats (4 sets of 5 Chinups between) (did the math wrong so went up 10# instead of 5)
5x5 165/155# Bench Press(4 sets 15 back extensions  between)
3x12 Inverted Row


Ab work


Ok, squats went well and I will increase to 180 on Thursday.  Bench went terrible.  I thought for sure I would be able to start at my body weigh 165.  I made it through the first set and 3 reps of the second.  I then dropped the weight to 155 and  did 5/4/5.  So next week I will be dropping the Rx'd 10% and start with 140#.  Very disappointing.


Warm up run was faster than planned. There was a guy already running on the track and I just fell in behind him for the first half mile and then pulled away.
