Weight (Sunday): 185 lb

Notes: I'm gaining weight.  Some of it is muscle coming back into my legs and lower back, but I'm pretty sure I'm also getting fatter around the middle.  Just too much intake, I'm sure.  Strength is coming back nicely, and my shoulder isn't getting worse.

Notes: Good week, shoulder still not injured, though it reminds me that I need to be careful sometimes.  Slightly better on food intake.  I'm figuring out what intake level works with the current carb-preloading I'm doing.

power clean 100 5x3

Weight (Sunday): 184 lb
Notes:  Up a little in weight, strength is increasing nicely, shoulder and knees still feel good, but I'm doing a lot of warmup and mobility work that I'm not writing down, just sort of putting between/before sets as needed.  Probably need to reel it in a little on food.

Workout Log for 2-14-2015 to 2-20-2015

So I decided to carefully, slowly start working out with barbells again.  After the long hiatus, it felt sensible to actually try Starting Strength, literally from the beginning, so no pullups/chinups/power-anything this first week.

Saturday (2-14-2015)

squat 45 3x5, 95 2x5, 135 1x5, 185 3x5
bench 45 2x5, 95 1x5, 135 3x5
deadlift 135 2x5, 185 1x5, 225 3x5

Monday (2-16-2015)
squat 45 3x5, 95 2x5, 135 1x5, 195 3x5
press 45 2x5, 65 1x5, 85 3x5
deadlift 135 2x5, 185 1x5, 235 3x5

Wednesday (2-18-2015)
squat 45 2x5, 95 2x5, 155 1x5, 200 3x5
bench 45 2x5, 95 2x5, 145 3x5
deadlift 135 2x5, 195 1x5, 245 2x5

Friday ( 2-20-2015)
squat 45 2x5, 135 2x5, 205 3x5
press 45 2x5, 75 2x5, 95 3x5
deadlift 135 1x5, 185 1x5, 225 1x5, 255 2x5

Weight (Sunday): 182 lb

Notes: Being extra-careful with my left shoulder.  Right knee is upset if I'm not exactly right on my squat form.  Pretty sure I tweaked something trying to do one-legged squats.  So my intuition about those (a balance trick more than a strength move, probably best learned when young and small, not especially safe, etc.) proved correct.  Going to keep very slow on squats until I'm sure my form isn't getting out of line when I'm over 200#.
