Steel's Program

I got a consult with Jim Steel (powerlifter, 850lbs squatter and University of Pennsylvania strength coach) a few days back. He's put me on a new program, using percentages and with a lot of volume in the aim of adding some mass, especially to the upper body. I think this is a good idea.

I did the following on Tuesday:

Squat: 100x5, 120x4, 140x2, 160x5x2, 120x12. Felt good. Wasn't used to high rep squats.

Leg Press: 5x10. Worked up to 5 plates.

Chins: 30 total

One arm row: 5x12, Worked up to a set at 20kg.

Curls: 3x12

All in all it was a fun day. I've got faith in the program.
