rows 5x5
workout B
sqaut 5x5
overhead press 5x5
deadlift 1x5
started like i said from scratch so it was olympic bar only (i felt like a right girl pants) dead lifts started at 40kg .but i got to start somewhere so it might aswell be the begining again ,I will be adding 5lbs per workout and 10lb to the deadlifts
