I mainly just want to get into the whole body 3x per week deal. With the big 5 being my foundation, Squats, DL's, MP's, Rows, Bench. I'm going to let my body tell me whether I can add weight to the bar from week to week. I'll start out w/5lbs per week to get back up to my 5RM weight. I do everything ,except bench of course, in front of a mirror at the gym. I'm going to really concentrate on my form.
I just recently realized that I've been doing high bar squats. What a difference sliding that bar down farther on the back and spreading the feet a little more and pushing the knees out made. I at least go past parallel now and it feels better on the whole body. When I get the book I plan on reading over and over on the correct form on all of these lifts. I'll rember to keep perspective on whats attainable for this old guy and whats meant for that 16 year old trying to make Ist string Guard on varsity! The form explanations in the SS book are right on I hope?
