Melanie: Tuesday

Warmed up

Okay, weight x sets x reps.

Press: 55# x 2 x 5; 65# x 4 (fail on 5); 60 x 5
Corrected elbow position; read Starting Strength; tried to keep everything tight

Deadlift: 135# x 3; 155# x 3; 160 x 15 x 1
Attempted to correct problems. Tried to get torso more vertical, butt down, shoulders where they're supposed to be, back flat. Looked up to help correct these problems. 160 felt awfully heavy last night. Wanted to give up after rep # 7, but did not.

Good job Mel. You'll just need to do a mental review before each set. Eventually this becomes habit, and it takes less effort to remember all the fine points you need to remember.
