    Bench: 105

    Tuesday February 4th 2014

    Squat
    5x5 65lb

    Bench Press
    5x5 65lb

    Barbell Row
    5x5 70lb

    Notes
    Still feel sick but got the workout done. Had blood and body fat tested this morning. Pretty much was what I expected. Not entirely happy about it but its not something I didn't already know. I need to lift weights and lose weight.

    I have had a horrible cold this week and have not been working out, but am hoping to get back after it this weekend. Hopefully I am able to work through this and not see any set backs.

    Welcome back. Good goals set for Feb.
    Your goals are about where I'm at now except my squat has stalled at 105 because I don't have a power rack, and can't lift the bar over my head any longer SAFELY.

    Did StrongLifts from March - June 2013, got cancer, surgery, radiation, recovery mode, blah blah blah, started over in January. Just finished Week 5 today and am very pleased with my numbers and, more importantly, how I'm feeling.

    Squat: 115
    Bench: 80
    Rows: 100
    OHP: 75
    Deadlift: 155

    Ive only been doing it for a week so I have only done 3 worksouts at the moment so not too high at the moment.

    Squat 25kg
    Bench Press 22.5kg
    Barbell Row 32.5kg

    Overhead Press 20kg
    Deadlift 40kg

    I swear I'm starting to feel a difference slightly already.

    Time to check in with my February Numbers.
    Feb.3 - Feb. 28
    Squat went from, 85 lbs to 105 lbs.
    OHP 80 lbs to 90 lbs. with a couple of failures :(
    Bench Press 90 lbs. to 115 lbs.
    Row 105 lbs. to 120 lbs.
    Deadlift 115 lbs. to 165 lbs.
    Squat is behind because I have no rack, and am lifting weight over my head. (having rack built for me now)
