Just got done with finding out my maxes for the 4 lifts
Current weight: 185ish
Height: 5'11
Body fat%: 12

Bench press: 270
Dead lift: 365
Squat: 320
Standing Military press: 155

I hope to crack these numbers, and get strong a hell. My diet is very good, and I do HIT cardio and slow cardio 2-3 times a week. Lets see where this goes

I'm going to do it right from the book. So here is the run down

Sunday
Military Press – 5/3/1
Dips – 5 sets of 15 reps
Chin-ups – 5 sets of 10 reps

Monday
Deadlift – 5/3/1
Back raises – 5 sets of 12 reps
Hanging Leg Raise – 5 sets of 15 reps

Wednesday
Bench Press - 5/3/1
Dumbbell Bench Press or Incline – 5 sets of 15 reps
Dumbbell Row – 5 sets of 10 reps

Friday Squat - 5/3/1
Leg Press – 5 sets of 15 reps
Leg Curl – 5 sets of 10 reps

Every week, I'll switch up the assistance exercises so I'm not repeating it over and over.

Hey ghost, I've actually came to your house a long time ago one day and trained with you. I'm in Mississippi now though, getting into the Marines. But if I'm back around town for a decent amount of time, I'll hit you up and we'll hit it up
