SS workout A, #3
Warm-up and stretchy stuff.
Squat: 1 x 10 x BW, 1 x 5 x 45#, 5 x 5 x 55#. Right shoulder was a bit looser on these today which allowed me to get in a better position... most of the time. But it freaked out an upper arm muscle and it cramped up during two of the sets. For the three good sets when my wrist/shoulder set up hit the sweet spot, the rest of my squat was rock solid. For the two bad upper body positioned ones, everything was loosey goosey. Will increase weight to 60# next time.
Bench press: 1 x 10 x 45#, 1 x 4 x 60#, 5 x 5 x 75#. Felt solid on these. Will increase to 80# next time.
Deadlift: 1 x 10 x 75#, 1 x 5 x 135#, 5 x 5 x 150#. Form dead on. I have no issues with deads at all, other than I'm starting to dread them. I think I've just been doing them straight through from the beginning of the year, I'm tired of them. That and I've lost strength on them which bites.
Notes:
1. Tilled for two hours and hoed (hoed, not ho'd) for one hour this afternoon before this evening's workout. My hands are trashed again, with new blisters and skin missing.
2. I'm love, love, loving the simplicity of the SS workouts.
3. My legs are looking floofy. Ew.
