Started lifting for the first time in my life (from a background of some serious muscle atrophy and chronic back pain) on 9/08. I may be lifting pathetically light weights at the moment, but hey, gotta start somewhere and get the form down!
These stats are more for personal purposes since I don’t know much of the jargon yet… but feel free to correct me on terminology!
As of 10/15:
- Benchpress: 5 reps of 40 pounds (1RM of 45)
- Squat: 5 reps of 55 pounds (~2 reps of 70)
- Deadlift: 5 reps of 60 pounds
Starting (9/08)
- Benchpress: 5 reps of 30 pounds
- Squat: 5 reps of 35 pounds
- Deadlift: 5 reps of 40
Goals before Thanksgiving:
