Back to Basics: Starting Strength Novice Routine<\/h1>\n
    \n
  1. Squat<\/strong>: 135×10, 225×5, 295×5, 295×5, 295×5 [no belt]<\/li>\n
  2. DB Lunges<\/strong>: 25×10, 25×10, 25×10<\/li>\n
  3. Bench Press:<\/strong> 135×10, 185×5, 230×5, 230×5, 230×5<\/li>\n
  4. Deadlift:<\/strong> 135×10, 225×5, 315×3….overhand grip failed…stopped before hitting goal of 385×5<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Note:<\/strong> Trying to get away from using an alternating grip for the deadlift. My double overhand grip is weak; that, coupled with the fact that I waited until 7:30 PM to start this workout, left me tired and weak willed. I need to get some straps for heavy deadlifts, as well as work on my overhand grip strength.<\/p>\n

    Goals:<\/strong> My goals for this level of training\/before I move on to an intermediate routine<\/p>\n
