What a GREAT day! Finished week one off strongly and solidly. It could be that I low balled Squats and DLs a bit, but even so, I killed it on Bench and I feel really good physically--and considering I injured myself last week, that is saying something. And I REALLY enjoyed squatting three times in a week again!
Light OWUx3 felt easy on squats. The first set of 10@230 felt lighter than 10@225 on Monday. I planned on trying for 12 on set two, but I forgot and racked it after 10 without even thinking. Oops!
OWU on Bench felt like I could've done 2 or 3 easily. The first set of 5@220 made me a bit nervous--but I guess I was still just not all the way warmed up as sets 2 and 3 were easier.
Pull-ups suck. They just do. They really hurt my shoulders, so I am switching 'C' Days to have chins as well as 'A' days... just without added weight.
First set of Rows felt heavy, but I think it was just another case of poor warm-up because the rest went just fine.
6.7.13
Squat 3x265; 230x10,10
Bench 1x235; 220x5,5,6
Pull-ups 1x9
Chins 9,8
Rows 190x5,5,8
All in all, I like my new programming thus far. It'll take a month or two to really see if I am getting anywhere. But I it bears repeating: Squatting three times a week again feels AMAZING!!
