Augustine's log
Week 2 Day 1
Squat 72.5
Press 42.5x3 / 40x5 / 37.5x4
Row 37.5
Week 2 Day 2
Squat 75
Bench 50x5 / 47.5x0 / 45x5
Deadlift 70
Week 2 Day 3
Squat 80
Press 37.5
Row 40
We decided to go to a lighter press that Augustine could complete rather than to try the 40 and fail it at the end of the week. Better to be able to lift than to try and fail. Benches failed a set because of a shoulder pain. Rows, deads, squats are going up well. Hopefully bench and press will follow suit.
On the other hand, my workouts are easy peasy. I've been going at it quick with minimal rest between sets. However, I am trying to teach myself to catch a breather before taking the set to avoid disappointment.
So far so good.
