    Weight - 201
    Bodyfat 15-20% probably closer to 20

    Bench - 235
    Squat - 275
    Deadlift - 315x3
    Overhead Press - 135

    The first phase is a 12 week long strength peaking phase using his Strong-15 template.

    The numbers I plugged into the template were bench-235, squat-285, and deadlift-335

    Weights all felt really light and easy which is good. Paul preaches about programming light and phase 1 should be easy.

    Subscribed. I want to know what this program is like. Based on what I know of Paul Carter, I assume it will pretty simple and basic. Best of luck.

    Since I got back from a trip this week I was going to train three days in a row to get all of the workouts in. I figure it wouldn't be bad because it is week one and the weights are light. Today was supposed to be bench day but I am feeling really sick and horrible so I decided to rest and combine the bench and back days tomorrow.

    Back day is all assistance work so I am not worried about it being too much

    I'm quite a fan of Paul Carter's stuff and I use his programming for my squats and deadlifts so I'll be following this!!

    Haven't posted in awhile because I was sick and traveling and didn't get into the gym. I ended up starting over and repeated the first leg workout again and this week will be my week one.

    The workout was the exact same as the one I posted earlier.

    I strained my piriformis a month ago and it still acts up occasionally but today it wasn't bad during the workout. I just need to roll and stretch it out before next week

    Bench Day

    Weight: 201

    Bench Press
    95 x 5
    115 x 4
    135 x 3
    145 x 2
    155 x 1
    165 x 1
    175 x 1
    135 x 17

    Incline
    95 x 10
    115 x 10
    95 x 10
    95 x 10
    95 x 10

    The incline was a lot harder than I thought it would be and it was really humbling.

    Flys

    30 pound dumbbells 2x20

    Tricep Pushdowns

    70 4x20


    Notes:

    The bench press sets were really light and snappy which is good. The rep work on the assistance lifts was killer though. A lot harder than I thought it would be.

    My body is pretty sore from this already. It is still getting used to all the reps haha. The worst is my hamstrings from all the leg curls. This has been an area that I have neglected before. My quads are naturally pretty big and my hamstrings look skinny in comparison so I am glad I am finally doing hamstring work.

    Weight 201

    Squats

    135x5
    145x4
    165x3
    180x2
    195x1
    215x1
    220x1

    Pause Squats
    170 2x5

    Deadlifts

    145x5
    170x4
    205x3
    225x2
    242x1
    250x1
    255x1

    215 3x3

    Leg curls

    70 4x20

    Overall it was a 80% session. I tweaked my piriformis on my squat warm-ups but I was able to finish the workout. I will have to take care of it before next week. The pause squats were pretty hard today. Not a great workout but still an 80% one

    Weight 200

    Bench Press
    95x5
    115x4
    135x3
    155x2
    165x1
    175x1
    185x1
    155x12

    Incline Press
    95x4x10
    95x8

    Failed on the ninth rep of the last set. My muscles were shot. I like to think it was because I was taking short rests but it is mostly because I am weak.

    Flys
    30 2x16

    Couldn't get to twenty reps

    Tricep pushdown

    4x20

    Overall it was an okay session. The bench press sets were great, everything felt very strong. The assistance work was tougher. I try to keep the rest down so that explains it some. I am just glad the bench went great because that is what matters.
