Journey to 400 and 600 (almost at 400!)
Freshman in college, goals are to hit a 400 pound bench press and 600 pound deadlift as soon as possible (don't we all want to?). Done a variety of workouts ranging from different variations of westside to reg park and bill starrs 5x5 workouts. Now I'm utilizing more of a bodybuilding approach, similar to Jeremy Hoornstra's workout, and I'm getting pretty good results. The reason squatting doesn't make the cut is because I'm still healing a pretty bad knee, so my squat is not as high, but I still work it as hard. My bench currently is 360 and my deadlift is 560. Well wish me luck, keep lifting.
I'll start by posting yesterdays workout.
