At the start of 2008 I decided i would start training much more frequently in mixed martial arts and try to follow a steady strength program. The first 6 weeks went well and i was training hard and getting results i was rather pleased with, unfortunately i fell ill with Glandular fever, stopped training have only recently fully recovered from it. I'm going to follow what was working for me quite well before i got sick which was the basic routine from the FAQ of doing bench deadlift and squats with a few assistance exercises.
Measurements are in both Kilos and Pounds

Age: 19
Height 6'0
Weight: 75/165

My PR's before i got sick
Bench: 210
Deadlift: 290
Squat: 240 (I basically did not start doing squats when i weight lifted until i stumbled into the S&P at the start of the year, as my lazy self i thought doing bodyweight squats at mma training was good enough...)

Goals for the remainder of the year(to be revised following a week of lifting)
Weight 78/171.5
Bench 220
Deadlift 330
Squat 300
