As you can see I have started this blog a few days after I have already started my workout. My first workout was last Thursday 8/20/2009. I went to the gym at 6 am (not my favorite time, but my class schedule would not allow any other time, and I hate it when it gets crowded). I was feeling very stiff, and unmotivated. But I pulled through, and had a good workout.
I weighed in at 201 lb. I have read in few places that the best place to start the 20 rep squats is to take my 5 rep max (315 lb) and subtract (18 workouts * 5 lb) and that tells me that I should start at 225.
The squats were hard, and towards the end I felt like throwing up, and my legs were shaking.
This is what I did:
squat: 135*10 (warm-up) and 1*20 @ 225
pull over: 1*20 @ 25
straight leg: 2*10 @ 135
pull down: 3*10 @ 160
Rows: 3*10 @ 160
