Notes
Haven't trained since 2/26. Haven't performed a back squat since 9/11. Haven't performed any kind of squat since 1/9. Haven't done much of anything lately -- was vacationing from 3/10 to 3/14 and spent the past week moving to a new city for a new job. I decided now would be a good time to start barbell training again (my last stint was from 6/1 to 9/13). Let's see how long I can stick with it this time.

Good luck getting back into it. I've actually been reading through this whole thread over this past week as I've been prepping for Texas Method for the first time. Lotta good info and great lifts in here bud. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the reply. Didn't know anyone still read this thing.

Funny you mention it, seven years ago as of today was my first Texas Method workout. I had a few stints of Starting Strength in between then and now, but for the majority of April 2010 to July 2013. Since August 2013, I've been doing body part splits, with a brief stint of SS from June to September of 2015. I worked up to some okay numbers, but my best stuff is from winter of 2013.

Ha, yeah I'm only on page 61 (Feb. 2012) at the moment slowly reading through it all, just trying to learn what I can. Looking forward to see how strong you got along the way. 7 years ago.. man, that's crazy. I've been mindlessly doing 5/3/1 for a few years, but wanted something a little more intense, so just got into TM. I started with PeterGibbon's log (epic).. now I'm reading yours & jshaw's. Great stuff bud.

Oh, and what's up with all the handstand push-ups of late? Guess that's just easy to do at home when you can't hit the gym..

Started reading through some of your log myself, really interesting! I was wondering, what are the factors you felt helped you make the most progress, and what do you think hindered your progress?
