I've been waiting to get a journal going for a while. Hopefully it'll help me keep everything in check, and maybe get some feedback too. I think I finally got the diet and workout nailed down. Here's how everything looks as of now:

Height: 6'1"
Weight: 145 lbs.
Bodyfat: Estimated 15% (can kind of make out abs)

Weakass 5RM's on the Big 3 before starting:
Bench: 120
Squats: 160
Deads: 155
