Light day today and unfortunately, for the second consecutive bench session, I made no rep PR. So, progress is definitely slowing on the GSLP. I will keep trying to bust out PRs though but when it stalls again, I'll move it and the press over to the Texas Method.
Bench: 93.5 x 5 x 2, x 6.
Light Squat: 125 x 5 x 2.
EZC: 40 x 12, x 10, x 8.
Jords and I spoke to my great friend Nicko last night. Looks like he might be taking up training. Benefits unlimited.

I Wanna Be Huge AND Lean
Gonna take the dog for a run in the bush. As well as the fasted cardio I've been doing, I'm adding a high intensity conditioning session on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

Bigger, Better Blog.
Welcome to my new blog. It is a training log that will chronicle my training and anything else directly or indirectly related to getting huge. I also keep a log over at strengthvillain.com It's a great place. I previously kept a log over at redstarspartan.blogspot.com for a few days but realistically, the title wasn't good enough. Especially after Jords came up with the incredibly good twohundredpoundstofreedom.blogspot.com.
Current stats:
24 year old male
Body weight: 90kg (198lbs)
Height: 178cm (5'10)
Here's my first ever log entry which was on strengthvillain.com:

Hi everyone,
Unfortunately about 4 years ago I gave up training. However thanks to a friend that also frequents this site, as well as the philosophy of Rippetoe and the great atmosphere and information on strenghvillain, I have a new found vigor for training.
I'm currently living in N.Z but just got back from a month in Aus where my mate gave me some tutelage in lifting and conditioning which was awesome. Since getting back I hastily joined the gym (got a great student deal) and kept up the program I was doing in Aus. I'm absolutely loving it and now more than ever I realise what a mistake it was to give up on training in the first place.
Age: 23
Height: 5'10
Weight: 74kg (162 lbs)
Squats: 3x5 @ 85kg
Dead lift: Worked up to one set of 5 @ 60kg
Pull ups: 3x5, 1x3
Also did some crunches and 20 burpees
Here's today's session, all weights in kilos (weight/sets/reps):
Seated Press: 60 x 5 x 2, x 11 x 1.
Squat: 155 x 5 x 5.
Pull-ups: 5 x 3.
I'm in AUS at the moment visiting Jords, working out in his dungeon.
Squats are currently on a Texas Method. Other lifts probably heading in that direction shortly.
