New PRs!

Started mark rippetoes starting strength program today.
Squat: 65kg
Deadlift: 70kg
Chest press: 35kg

this has given me a starting point for the new program, there is a spreadsheet for this so when I enter these weights, it tells me what to do for each set for each session. Looking forward to doing this.

  1. Hey
    I am not doing this now, but am going to crossfit now, and I love it!
    We did 1 rep max for bench press last night and I did 40 kg. Not huge but pretty happy with it.

  2. Awesome...

    I think you are in Western Sydney? If so, are you going to Crossfit Penrith?

    I'm going to give SS a red hot go combined with slow cardio for about 60 mins 3 times a week. I got nothing to lose (except a lot of weight!)

    Well done to you.

  3. Yes I am but going to Crossfit Blacktown (which is in Glendenning). Do I know you from MDA? Are you in Sydney too? Starting Strength? Crossfit does a bit of lifting like that. I love it soooo much!

  4. I've only recently started posting on MDA and just started getting primal. I'm in Glenmore Park so Penrith would be closest. I hope you dont mind me contacting you, i was just looking for other primals in Sydney.

    All the best!!
