Today I'm starting a strength program by the name of the Wendler 531 program. I have dabbled with it in the past using it as a supplement to my Crossfit workouts. The difference is that I am going to fully commit to the program outline and follow it as prescribed without any modifications. I will be implementing some met con work to keep my conditioning, but the main focus is to become strong like bull. I have set some goals for the lifts I will be performing that I would like to reach at the completion of the program. The program is laid out to be completed in cycles. A cycle consist of 4 weeks, the fourth being a deload week. My intention is to follow the program through the remainder of 2012. My 1RM goals are as follows:
Back squat: 485lbs
Deadlift: 500lbs
Standing Press: 190lbs
Bench press: 330lbs
I weighed in today at 169lbs, I have no goal in mind as to where my weight should be; I just want to get strong. I will be eating moderately healthy, but will not be going crazy and focusing all my energy in life on eating perfectly.
Psalm 18:32-34 the God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless. He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
