started this program saturday
after a warm- up i did 5x5 on bodyweight benchesdid 145#'s
then yesterday after a good warm-up i did 5x5 on deadlifts. did 160#'s
today i do squats. then i will rest a day then repeat, doing 3 on 1 off.
question 1)
after doing chest in the morning, will doing pushups in the pm be too much. i like doing pushups, and entering pushup contests, so i was wondering if this is ok. 100-400 is what i'll do. up to 20 minutes of these.
then after deadlifts in the morning, is it ok to do pullups in the evening? do 100-150 of these sets of 10-20. i like this exercise too.
then on squat day, do those in the morning, and is doing a bunch of abs in the evening ok?
also, i weigh 145-150max. i had a best of 365 on the deadlift, but that was long ago. 30 years ago. now when i do these i use bodyweight. i slipped something in my back years ago, and when i use 200#'s i sometimes feel my back slips. then its hard to walk for a week.
so i was wondering if after i did 5x5 on deads with a bodyweight weight, or just a bit more than bodyweight, is it ok do do dumbell rows? this dosent hurt my back.
i'm an endurance athlete finally making a switch to weights, but have been doing lots of dips pushups pullups hang cleans 40 years..
anything else i should do?
5x5 on deadlifts benches and squats. is this all?
thanks alot for help
goal is to pack on a few pounds. diets perfect as was taking in 4-5000 calories a day these past 30 years cycling 4 hours some training days along with 2 hour workouts and 1 hour workouts.
and rest is key which i get plenty of.
thanks again
