Squat 370lbs 3x5
Bench 245lbs 4/4/4 (Probably should have had something like 5/4/4 or 5/5/4, didn't have a spotter and didn't want to push it.
Pullups 11/7/6
Overall not bad. Once the 5/3/1 book comes I'm gonna see what it has to say. Meanwhile I've been following a heavily mutated 3x5 setup 4 days a week. Mainly to bring my upper body inline. To that end, I'm doing:
Day 1 and 3: Squat/Bench/Pullups (all 3 sets of 5). Day 2 and 4: Deadlift/Press/Weighted Chins (DL is 1x5, else 3x5).
With this, I squat 2x (compared to 3x on starting strength) a week. Deadlift 2x (vs 1.5x) a week. Bench and Press 2x (vs 1.5x a week). So the result is that I'm doing 1 fewer squat workout, and 0.5 more of bench/press/deadlift. I've seen some progress on my upper body lifts which is good news. I'm gonna keep going on this until I stall hard probably. Then maybe 5/3/1???
Sounds like a good plan. Did you move already? Find a new gym?
