Default Day 1

ok: today was Day 1

Here is what i was originally supposed to do:

Day 1
1.) Barbell Squats 5x5 (same weight)
2.) Flat / Incline / Decline Barbell / Dumbbell Bench Press 5x5 (work your way up)
3.) Barbell Rows 5x5 (same weight)
4.) Standing Barbell Military Press 5x5 (same weight)
5.) Accessory: Low Volume Triceps, Calves and Abdominals

and,
here is what went down;

Barbell Squats 5x5 (same weight)
Warm-up = 2 sets of 40 kgs and 50 kgs for 10 reps each
the form was the same throughout: A2G..!
then came the working sets:
  1. 60 x 5
  2. 60 x 5
  3. 60 x 5
  4. 60 x 5
  5. 60 x 5
well, since i completed all the prescribed number of reps, i think i'll icnrease the weight next time

Flat Barbell Bench Press 5x5 (work your way up)
no warm-up
  1. 40 x 5
  2. 45 x 5
  3. 50 x 5
  4. 55 x 5
  5. 60 x 3
since i only went to three reps on the last set, i think i'll keep the weight the same the next time and try to complete all the 5 prescribed reps

Barbell Rows 5x5 (same weight)
no warm-up sets
  1. 50x5
  2. 50x5
  3. 50x5
  4. 50x5
  5. 50x5
as you can see, i completed all the reps so i'm gonna bump the weight up next time

  1. 30x5
  2. 30x5
  3. 30x5
  4. 30x5
