I am actually halfway through my second week, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.  The first week was awesome.  When I wrote my program, I was hoping for a 315lb 1RM on my conventional deadlift.  When deadlift day came, I decided to set the goal for 325lbs.

I am half way done with my first week.  I volumed the squats (7x5) at 135lbs.  This will give me a lot of space to increase weight, but it gave me time to think about stabilizing my core.....hard and tight, hard and tight (and that is where I giggle a little).

I want to get stronger.  In the next year, I would like to get to a 400lb deadlift, a 200lb bench press and a 300lb squat.  At the moment these numbers seem so far away from anything I can attain.  But they aren't.

Benching went well today. On my current program I am at a point where every work set for bench is a rep PR.
