Notes - So I checked and this is my 7th week lifting barbells and trying to work through the Novice LP in Starting Strength, focusing just on Squat and Deadlift for now (no pressing), plus Powercleans. And today I experienced my first failed rep - couldn't hold the bar on the last rep on the DL, left hand, it's been the issue every time and though I never failed to lockout a rep until today, this got me. After doing some studying, it's clear that its time to try the Hook Grip on the DLs so I am going to start practicing this. It is frustrating because I was strong enough to lock out these reps, just could not hold on to the bar. On the other hand, another PR in the squat and officially hit 300lbs today, so that was pretty cool. Inching towards 315 which will be a nice milestone. I feel like this lift is still progressing well, though it is certainly getting heavier.
