age 27 weight 230lbs, 27% BF
Bench 300, Deadlift 405, Squat ~225
My squat is so much less than my deadlift because when I do deadlifts my legs are far above parallel and since my arms are long, I do most of the work with my lowerback. My legs are really weak. For the past 5 months I've been working out consistently but I've been doing basically the same workout centered around deadlifts, pullups, and bench. Yeah I've been ignoring legs and shoulders for the most part. I've been focusing on strength but now I seriously need to loose weight. The following is a DC style rotation that repeats about every 3 weeks. I just made up and am planning on starting now. On the push day Im going to do shoulder presses before my chest presses. For reps I have been starting with a weight where I can do about 5 reps and only increase it when I can do 10 reps. I've been doing 2 sets per exercise except for pullups, rows, and side lateral raises where I did 3-4 sets with 10-15 reps. I might try to keep it at a constant 5 reps, 2 sets, what do you think? The thing is if I can only do 5 reps allout on the first set I may only get 2 or 3 on the second set unless I lower the weight a little.
