hell ya guys i can't wait. took today off, i worked 16 hours at the hospital last night and my son had his kung fu class. kept calories at around 2500, LEGS tomorrow, i love squats.
well right before my gallbladder surgery at the end of july my 1rm for bench was 245 so i'm hoping i didn't lose too much on that, we will find out friday. i get what you're saying now with the reps. i can play around with that some. i've always warmed up with higher reps lower weight then...
so for example, chest day on friday- 135x5, 145x5, 155x5, 185x3-6 reps, and on up to my max attempt. would you do it something like that? i've been doing the starting strength program for the past year and a half so i've just been shooting for a 5 rep range and upping the weight by 2.5 to 5...
DAY 2- no horns growing yet, but placebo feels pretty good and makes me go for it.
