JC (11/12)- 5/3/1 Military Press Week 3

Military press-
140x5
160x3
180x5
Probably had one more rep in me, but w/e.

Military press (assistance)-
115- 5x10
These were actually hard after the 2nd set. Fatigue.

Chinups-
5x7

Dumbbell Rows-
100x15
100- 2x10

On another note- my lifting partner got 265 5x5 on bench. I'm very proud of the progress he's made in such a short amount of time, and its all because of Starting Strength. Just to put it in perspective, started off at 185 around mid-August and was struggling to complete the 5 sets.

  4. Also, Starting Strength should be 3x5. 5x5 is OK, but you'll stall out a lot sooner.
