Strive for Strength and Size - My Log to get to my strength/size goals.
Hey guys, if you're joining my log, I'd like to say thanks first! :)
[size=+3]A BIT ABOUT ME[/size]
Next, a bit about me. I've been training training for 2 years last month, but the first year and a half was using my school gym program, needless to say, a sh*t program. I put on some size and gained some strength, but since i started about 7 months ago, i gained more in that time than the whole 1 1/2 years together.
Now, I want to get strong, I love lifting and doing everything right, its my life now!. Size is obviously important to me too, but strength comes first until I hit my goals.
Current Lifts: (These are all estimates of my 1RM)
Squat - 124kg (273lbs)
Deadlift - 168kg (367lbs)
Bench - 90kg (198lbs)
OHP - 60kg (132lbs)
Current Stats:
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 80.5kg
Goal Lifts:
Squat - 140kg+
Deadlift - 180kg+
Bench - 100kg+
OHP - 75kg+
At the moment, I have a great load of support from a couple of school friends, as well as some other great people (Jesse) and my trainer, Stefan.
[i]Side Note[/i] For all you who are to tell me to do SS, I'd like to make it clear to you that I did go back to it when I started training seriously, and reached a point where i couldn't go any further. Yes, I tried to deload/reset. Didn't work. I considered going back to it, but now I'm in the hands of a trainer, and a good one (to say the least) at that.
I just wanted the get in here before you did, so shut up.

My current program is 5/3/1, the strength routine. If you don't know it, look it up. I'm loving the program now, and you'll get to see the specific stuff I'm doing in my routine below :).
