Evening:

Deadlift - 235 lbs 2x5, 255 lbs 2x3, 275 lbs 2x2

Press - 45 lbs 1x5, 65 lbs 1x5, 75 lbs 1x5, 95 lbs 1x5, 105 lbs 1x5

20kg two handed swings 5 sets of 20 on the minute

This was my first dl workout in over a month now. I'll see how I feel tomorrow but it didn't feel too bad.

This was my first time doing the standing two handed barbell press and I really like this exercise. I worked the progression as Mark Rippetoe mentions in Starting Strength. I'm thinking that this will give me more balance in my pressing and get my left side closer to my right.

Swings feel good. My wind is definitely not up to snuff right now and my left hip is pretty weird feeling. I'm going to start with the 20kg and work my way up while I'm on this strength/mass building phase I'm in.
