Heavy lower

I had a busy work schedule today, so only had time for the two main lifts.

Back squat
190lb x 6
200lb x 6
205lb x 6

Deadlifts
260lb x 6
280lb x 5

I was going to attempt the sixth rep, but my back was so fatigued that I couldn't get my set up right. I didn't want to risk another lower back injury, like a couple of weeks ago, so decided to quit.

This is the start of a new regimen by new trainer, Mitch.

Bench press

Cable row
110lb x 6
120lb x 6
130lb x 6

Shoulder press
75lb x 6

Pull-ups
40lb x 6

Barbell shrugs

195lb x 12
