Monday 11/16/09

Afternoon:

Back squat - 45lbs 2x5, 55lbs 2x3, 65lbs 3x5

Bench press - 45lbs 2x5, 65lbs 1x5, 95lbs 3x5

Deadlift - 53lbs 3x5, 135lbs 2x5

Kettlebell swings - 16kg 5x10 on the minute

First day of Starting Strength and I'm stoked. I got to wear my new Rogue Do-Win weightlifting shoes. I thought they were going to be tight but they are super comfortable. I went barefoot for the deadlifts though. Squatting in these shoes lets me get just a hair below parallel very comfortably with more control than I had before.

Everything feels pretty good. I'm ecstatic.
