Re: My first \"Starting Strength\" workout
Thanks for all the advice guys.
Yes, I have been reading the bodybuilding.com post extensively. It's great. It just helps to get some of the ideas affirmed by asking here as well (and sometimes I skiped over the relevant section).
My plan right now is to continue doing similar weights as I did in the first exercise without adding any weight for 1-2 weeks, just to get the form right. I'm on the fence whether I should cut out the auxilliary exercises. I think I'll definitely do some ab-work once a week, but maybe lay off the dips/chinups till later.
I must say I find it kinda odd that you're supposed to add weight for each and every exercise, and I'm fairly pessimistic that I'll be able to do that for the bench-press 'cause I've been doing that for a while now and have not been able to add much weight so far. We'll see how it goes thought.
I'll keep posting here.
