This morning I did Bent Over Rows 115x10rx5s, Shrugs 115x10rx5s, Straight Arm Lat Pulls owns 25x10rx5s, and Wide Grip Cable Rows 25x20rx5s.

DL session tonight didn’t go as well as I would have liked. I can’t seem to get my form down. I am going to read up on some different DL methods from Juggernaut, Starting Strongman,  and Andy Bolton.

5-3-1 Cycle#1/Week#1 SQ

During this workout (at Big Iron Gym) I went up to do 1 rep at 415lbs.  I had Justin “RedDog” Redding wrap my knees. This was my first time using kneed wraps.  It went very well.  I am excited to train more using them.  I will do a review of them at a later time.

As you can see, there is a place to write optional notes.  I am using this to track my bodyweight and body fat % each week.

That number at the bottom inline with the hour glass is the number of reps done on the 5+ set.  On BP day I did 10 total reps whereas on DL day I only could do the prescribed 5 reps.
