It's time to do something else with the overheads too. I'm an idiot for letting them go unchanged this long, probably could have been a lot farther by now. After the time off and recovery I'm still missing a rep at this weight, so yeah.. 5x5 time. In terms of running/cycling/lifting I overtrained this week, so did a light day on squats.

Squats: 205
Overheads: ugh.
Rows: 185 up 5. Form was slightly less horny mammal-esque today...
Pullups: doing push/pull drills later
Hammers: 2x8 50lb keep for form
Tris/abs: done

hey guys i have also been doing the starting strength program for 4 weeks now and i just wondered from your experience following the program when you really started to notice an increase in muscle mass? I have noticed so small gains but nothing too much, just wondered sometimes its nice to know what others have got out of a routine?

cheers

You notice the gains when you start eating
Muscle building is a slow process, aside from that the small gains are going to be just that- small gains. Don't worry, they add up. Keep up the good work.

Back in the gym for the first time in ten days. Ouch. Reset the deads and have moved to a maintenance 3x3 for squats, dropped the bench since it's been so long. Overall, a good day

Squats: 3x3 225 keep
Bench: 5x5 165 up 5
DL: 300 up 5
Pulls: push/pull drills. ugh.
Bi/Tri/Abs: done

Pitysister, you'll be happy to know that I just bought tickets for the Gigantour this saturday. In Flames, Children of Bodom, Job For A Cowboy, someone else, and Megadeth headlining. .

Have not, though I've been eager to as they seem like they'd put on a good show. If you've never seen As I Lay Dying in concert they're a phenomenal live band. Nothing will ever top Nugent's stage presence though.. that guy is the man. He'll be in MI for the 4th of July, no way am I missing that. Knowing him, his love of MI coupled with the fact that it's the 4th of July will make for one hell of a show.
