Took a crack at Stronglifts B today:

Back Squat 5x5 (140 lb)
Overhead Press 5x5 (60 lb)
Deadlift 5x1 (165 lb)
Pullup 3-2-2-2-2 (arms were too worn out to make it through all 10 sets)
3-45 sec prone bridges

This workout is now officially hard - back squats have been pretty tough for the past few weeks, but today overhead presses and pullups were hard too. I'm guessing it had something to do with yesterday's workout, but the weight for overhead presses is starting to approach my previous 1-rep max, so I'm not surprised things are getting tricky.

From now on I think I'm going to replace inverted rows with 5x5 power cleans, just because I'd like to work on them more. Also, just realized that I should be doing 1 set of 5 deadlifts. Oops. Will rectify that next time.
