Scrawny to Brawny Phase II - Reactivated

Man, I've lost a lot of power since I last did Phase IV sometime last summer.

This was the workout today. My weights are noted as well:

Barbell Squat 5x5 (175#)
Incline Bench Press 5x5 (145#)
Bulgarian Split Squat 2x6 (60#)
Single-armed Row 2x8 (40#)

Abs circuit:
Front bridge (30 sec.)
Side bridge (30 sec. each side)
Front bridge with alternating arm straightening/punching (30 sec.)
Side "T" bridge (30 sec.)
Sitting monkey (30 sec.)
Side bridge (30 sec. each side)

I potentially can lift more right off the bat, but I want to ease into it so I don't hurt myself. I think I felt some lactic acid buildup in my legs when I was squatting.

I'm not doing strictly the Scrawny to Brawny program. I will interject my own core exercises (as demonstrated with the abs circuit above) as well as ring work and full-body circuits. I also want to try to work to feats of human strength, such as the human flag, muscle ups, and freestanding hand stand pushups.

We'll see how that goes. Stay tuned!
