Better start tracking here instead of cluttering up the PR thread. Every week in all main lifts I have to set a new PR for reps or weight or both. Been powerlifting for about 8-9 months now, I had previously lifted for a couple years about 15 years ago when I was 18 with some BIG guys, so I was started out correctly, thank goodness. To get up to speed, I'm doing 5-3-1 and am seeing great results thus far. just started the second cycle or month this week. previous 8 months were spent very similar, first 2 months were higher reps and lower sets and lower weight and then went to 5x5 until I started the 5-3-1.
