Hey man,

I'm gonna switch back to a linear program, more beginner-style. I started this program right in the middle of moving cities and losing weight and stuff. Gonna go back to 3x5, squatting 3x per week, but this time high-bar/olympic whatever, prolly benching 2x, we'll see what else.

How do you find the program? Gonna stick with it for awhile? I remember reading you saying that your lifts have gone down a bit too, seems like since you switched programs... anything to that?

[Faraz]

Squats - 3x95 3x102.5 1x107.5kg - something painfull in left hip, really tight..... have been neglecting the foam rolling etc...
Bench 3x5 65kg - felt good, shoulder felt good
Pushups - total of 100
Chinups - 5,5,5,3,3
Ab-wheel rollouts 3x6
No cleans as platform were taken

I missed some reps on the Squat too. Could be time for a deload as well. Glad this program has a deload week.
Happy lifting Faraz
