Thanks Big V. Good to have you in this log.
Easing back into the groove ...
Cleans - 115 x 3 x 5
Clean and press - 95 x 3 x 5
Squats - 135 x 5 x 5
Seated rows - 9 plates x 8 x 3*
French press - 45 x 10 x 3
*No idea about the weight of the plates in the machine. Some guy working out said its 14 lbs. I guess I will just keep track of the number of plates.
Felt good to get in a full workout (sort of). I will look to increase volume slowly, but for now, all I will do is a push, a pull and some stuff for legs.
For tomorrow, I think I will clean, squat, do some bb rows plus some curls and close-grip bench. I am feeling the legs more than any other bodypart after getting back to the gym, so I guess I will squat light everyday of lifting for the first week or two, just to get back in the groove.
