Anyone else that changed over to barbell a different kind of sore/worn?
yes, and very hungry
Very tough program….. Loving it though.
my upper body is fried, triceps and pecs in particular.. not use to bench press at all
I was wrecked this morning…but felt a lot better as I got closer to working out and as I got moving. Feel alright tonight…not the case last night.

1b) #185 last set only did 4 reps.
What should I do if I can’t complete the sets? (ex. in my bench I did 4 sets of 5 reps and the last set I only could complete 4 reps) Do you think its more appropriate to just do the 4 reps at the weight prescribed or back off 5-10 % and complete all 5 reps.
Since you only missed one rep, you could rack the weight, take a very brief rest, and finish the set. If you were missing multiple reps or on multiple sets, you should consider backing off on the weight for that movement that day and finishing at a weight you can.
Clean from Blocks: 285
Jerk from BTN: 265 (first time doing these)
Push Press: 205

Squats: 315
Does anyone know how long the Barbell stuff is suppose to take? More than hour?
How long are these workouts suppose to take? More than an hour?
It depends. Once you get used to the program and streamlined, it should go faster. I would say between 1.5-2.5 hours total, depending on the day. You may also divide into two sessions a day if you would like.
Why are none of my comments being posted?
