After a week off (drinking, eating crap and pretty much doing everything badly) for xmas, I had my first session back in the gym today. And equalled my bench press personal best (strange, huh!) Managed 100kg x 9 reps for my heaviest set The chest and biceps got anhialated. Good fun.

Kerr mate, I'll pop in your journo... The 5x5 program I'm doing follows the dual factor theory - 4 load weeks (week 1 being quite light) followed by 3-4 deload and intensification weeks. I am following a madcow variation of Bill Starr's famous 5x5 routine and aim to hit new PBs in all lifts by weeks 5-6, hopefully continuing to 7 and 8 if all is going well. Squat - 5x97, 5x97, 5x97, 5x97, 5x97 Light. Bench - 5x65, 5x71, 5x76, 5x81 Row - 5x50, 5x53, 5x55, 5x58, 5x60 Easy session...As it should be at the beginning.

Next week is crunch time, on Monday I am due to squat 127 for 5x5, bench up to 108 for 5 reps and row up to 79 for 5 reps. I don't know if I will be able to manage, I'll have to go to the gym with the right mental attitude.
