Back squat 3x5
Standing press 3x5
Weighted pullup 3x5
Found a little time to squeek in some strength work between classes. Decided to use sets across to get a bit more volume. I tend to gain strength faster when strength gains are accompanied by hypertrophy, or muscle gain. This was the case for me last winter during the best cycle of my life. So, back to the basics. Squat, push, pull. Doesn't get any more basic. Used 250# in the squat, 125# in the press, 35# in the pullup. Squats were a bit ambitious, given what a wimp I am about squatting. Will use this weight again next week. Presses and pullups were about right, if not a bit on the light side. Looking forward to some big gains on this programming again.
