only because my legs were really hurting even with only 225 because of the bike ride I did the day before. with stiff legged deadlift since I'm tall I can do a good amount of weight using all back
However over the summer as a whole my legs have gotten very weak because of mild injuries and such so its time to catch them back up soon. It's hard to get a very strong deadlift without leg strength

Monday 8.8.11
Bench
3x5x235
DB extensions
3x10x45's PR
Elyptical machine 15 minutes
Comments: Solid workout. I was originally hoping for 5x5 at 235 but after finishing the 3rd set I felt good for the day. Just adding in a cardio at the end of every workout has helped immensly, my friend has a thing that takes your pulse and before the cardios my resting rate was around the 60's to 70's. Just took it a day or two ago and it was 54-56 walking around doing things

Comments: Alright workout. I screwed up and thought 255 was my 245x1 warmup when I'd already done that one. So I meant to go for a 3 rep set but intead wound up doing 2 singles and a double. I think it's time to start putting more exercises in my routine too

Goals:
Bench: 315
Deadlift: 500
Military press: bodweight (so around 185)
Thats pretty much it. I also do want to weighted pull up 100 pounds, and I have an APFT (army physical fitness test) in one month so I do need to start getting ready for that, as I havent run or done any push ups and situps over summer
