Eric,
How many different types of lifts are you doing in the course of a week? |

Re: The EricW log
Hey guys,
I am currently doing that 5x5 program on madcow's website. The lifts I do during the week are: Front Squat Pendlay Row Bench Press Military Press Romanian Deadlifts Some arm stuff at the end of the week I'm not eating that much right now so I haven't been gaining any weight. It's a little tough getting in all my cals because my commute to campus is a total of 3.5 - 4 hours a day and I've been pretty lazy. I'm just trying to keep up my strength without losing too much muscle mass. I'd say I'm eating just 2500 cals a day right now. |

Re: The EricW log
Goddamit Eric.
I thought these were pounds. I was so relieved that I wasn't the only one that struggled with the heavy weights. And wtf is this: [ QUOTE ] I know I'm not very strong and because of my lack of strength, it's sometimes a little disheartening but the kind words help me keep on pushing! [/ QUOTE ] How is bench-pressing 200lbs not strong? Hyachachacha, you put me on life-tilt. |

My buddy (with whom I usually train) is much bigger and stronger than me. He benches almost 300lbs and front squats like 285 or something so my weights pale in comparison to his. edit: he only benches 275. |

Re: The EricW log
Also, why did people automatically assume that my lifts were in kilos?

[img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] I was pretty sure they were kilos but I could tell from other responses that they thought they were pounds. I guess everyone else is using lbs since we're pretty US dominated. |
