After taking 6 or 7 years off of lifting weights, I decided it was time to start again. I ballooned up to 275 pounds. I never really stuck to one program for more that a couple weeks because I felt I wasn’t getting anywhere. Then I discovered T-Nation. I started the BBB 5/3/1 program last Monday. Just decided that I should post a log to keep myself going. Enough of the boring crap…
Starting stats:
Current Training RM’s:
*I lowered my deadlift max so that I could focus on form and not rounding my back so much.
Ok, so I will post my workout logs starting with last week.
