New lift = pick a weight you know that you can do and work your way up from there.

"What weight is Ascendant using" is not a valid reference point for any of us.

I just scale accordingly. If Ascendant is using 60 pound dumbbells, I will use the pink ones.

.

I did my first PL meet in April, and I'm 34.

Nice lifting - keep up the good work.

ME Lower Body

General Notes: My back was kind of sore going into tonight's workout but I still had a good workout by the numbers. I was just scared the whole time. There's nothing quite like obsessing about being hurt the whole time.

Deadlift

155x5
185x5
205x3
225x3
250x3
275x3 --> 10 lb PR

Reverse Barbell Lunges w/ Front Foot Elevated 4"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: Some of these reps were just ugly. This was the first time I've done these with my foot elevated. As a result I was a wobbling fool on some of them.
95x6 (each leg)
85x8 (each leg)
85x8 (each leg)

Dumbbell Hamstring Curls
----------------------------------------
50x8
