Week 1 of the Greyskull Linear Progression. I'm in week 2 now. The nice thing about the Greyskull is you just add weight each time to each workout, so eventually you have to become Zeus. The crappy thing is you're supposed to add 2.5 pounds to bench but you need 1.25 weights to do that, which the gym doesn't have. So just adding 5 pounds for now.

It's kind of consusing because there's different versions of the Greyskull. The first one I read had bench on Mon and Fri, now I'm seeing one that alternates bench and press, which I assume is overhead press? Kind of confusing. Anyways the epic 45 plate made it's first appearance on the deadlifts.

Mon


Wed


Fri

AS usual I suspect some usual suspects will give you form tips.

Something tells me you will be strong and muscular MOFO in the next year or so.

I dont know your finances but for me it was worth it to INVEST in a set of fractional weights.

Hey good job so far. I'm not familiar with greyskull, but yes if they say Press they mean OHP. I would say it's up to your preference which one you want to do. But to keep it rounded it out I would recommend keeping press in there.

Just at a quick glance a few things in form:

deadlift: learn and practice a proper tight set up. your hips start too low. if you watch yourself you will see your hips move up before the weight even moves at all. you want your hips and shoulders to rise together.

squat: lower the weight and go a little deeper. play around with stance width and foot angle to see where you feel strongest at the bottom. everyone's different. but again make sure everything is tight and make sure your knees aren't buckling inward.

bench: your elbows are a little too flared. once you go heavier your shoulders are going to hurt. make sure your shoulder blades are pulled back and down.

Good luck and keep grinding!

Stop the one-arm dumbell standing press. Do some ohp with a barbell. It will make you look 300% less gay and 200% stronger. Goal should be pressing at least body weight.
