I'm a 53 year old guy who likes picking heavy things up, and putting them down. I'll blog about my progress here.

Back from vacation, more prep work.
Squats: 45x2x5, 135x2x5, 185x5, 205x5, 225x5, 200x11
Pullovers: 35x20
Bench: 135x10, 185x10, 205x10
Back from vacation. Continuing where I left off. Was able to hit 11 reps on the squats before my knees turned to mush. My left shoulder is a little sore and pullovers were slow and deliberate. Bench went pretty good.

Getting ready for 20 rep squats
Squats: 45x2x5, 135x2x5, 185x5, 225x7
Pullovers: 35x20
Chins: BWx5
It was pretty hot today and I didn't feel too good. I'll give it a shot on the weekend with a fan and some stimulants. I might drop the squat to 200 to hit the 20 reps, but we'll see. The tendons above my knees were pretty tight.

Bench
Thu, 10 July 14
Bench: 45x10, 135x10, 185x10, 200x5, 215x5, 225x3, 235x5x5
Still pretty tough.
Deficit hex bar deadlifts
Sun, 6 July 14
Hex bar deadlifts (4" deficit) : 160x10, 250x10, 300x10, 330x5, 370x5x5
Hard work. Storm was pretty well a dud. My motorcycle blew over and a turn signal mirror broke off, that's all though.

Upper body
Sat, 5 Jul 14
Bench: 45x10, 135x10, 185x10, 200x5, 215x5, 225x3, 235x5x5
OHP: 45x10, 95x10, 115x5, 130x3, 140x5
Curls: 45x3x15
Nothing serious with TS Arthur today so far. Bench was tough at the end, I need more work before raising that. Arms were pretty beat by the time work sets came up in OHP, so called it a day.
