Well, I figure I’ll start a log here since the site where I have been keeping it is getting pretty dead. First, a little about me:
37 years old
5’ 10"
~300 lbs
Started training in mid-2008 after recovering surgery on a torn rotator cuff from ju-jutsu/MMA training. Bench sucks & OH is not so hot, but it’s actually due to issues with the other shoulder.
All-time PR’s
Squat - 575
DL - 605
Bench - 341
Strict Press - 225
Push Press/Push Jerk - 315
Current 1RM
Squat - 565
DL - 585
Bench - Don’t know, get pain doing even 225
OH - Same as bench, the strength is there, but it hurts like hell
For a while I worked only the main lifts and from what I’ve read it seems to be mainly due to muscular imbalance in the shoulders. I’m working to fix that.
I’m currently doing my own version of the Hepburn Singles Method. Any advice, criticism, or other input is welcome & encouraged from all.
