Phase 3 - Days 5, 6, 7

I took a week off from lifting due to a 20 hour drive, birthday, school starting, and everything else.  I actually think I needed it because I was starting to feel beat down.  I'm going to reproduce my last 3 workouts as best I can.

I basically used last week as a re-introduction week.  Thus, my sets/reps aren't completely linear yet.  I always have this mental image of "filling out" a routine.  Basically, when I start a new routine or I am de-conditioned, I don't necessarily go in there and do every set/exercise laid out in the program. I  fill out the routine over the course of a few sessions or a couple weeks.  When I get to  point where I feel adjusted to the new exercises, the split, and the reps/frequency, then I'll do complete workouts and  try to make controlled progress.  I think this is especially important when you have a long time horizon.  I'll be doing this routine for at least 2-3 months.  I'm not completely sure how things will develop from here on out, so there is no rush.
