Pure Strength Series

[heather33]

I'm doing a rotation incorporating this series and I was wondering if there was a list anywhere of the weights Cathe uses? I did legs this morning and she didn't mention anything she was using. I like to use her weights as base line for mine. I searched on the forums but couldn't find anything.
If anyone know I'd appreciate it, thanks!

I only have some of them. Here goes:

PS Chest, Shoulders & Tris

Seated Clean & Press - Cathe says light weight. For set 1, she used 8# and set 2, she used 5#
Standing Side Lateral Raise - she says go moderate to heavy
Dbbl French Press - 8#
Cross Body Kickbacks - 8#
Dips with Barbell - 35#

I have a copy of the spreadsheets which list all the weights Cathe uses. I got it a month or two ago. If you PM me with your email address, I would be happy to send it to you!

I also have this in a spreadsheet if you'd like it. Just PM me your email address.

ETA: The format I follow is to list each exercise, then number of sets x number of reps, then dumbbells or barbell, and lastly the weight she uses. For example, the first exercise below is one set of 8 reps on each leg using 2 5# dumbbells (one in each hand). Barbell is total weight, including plates and the bar. So for a 45# barbell, I use a 15# bar with 2 10# plates and 2 5# plates.

Here's what she uses for legs:

Warm up front lunges 1x8 DB 2x5
Warm up dips 1x8 DB 2x5
Front lunges 1x8 DB 2x15
Dips 1x8 DB 2x15
Static lunges 2x16 BB 45

Squats 1x16, 1x4 3ct hold, 1x8 BB 45
Sit-n-stand - 16" step, 1x10 BB 45
Quarter dead lift 2x12 BB 45
Calf raises - 2x4 board 32/40/8ct/36/8ct Y
Inner Thigh - Body Bar 32/16/8 15#
Outer Thigh - Body Bar 32/16 15#
Double Hamstring hip lifts - 8" step, Body Bar 4 quick, 54 slow 15#

Isn't there another site that had Excel spreadsheets listing the weights and equipment Cathe uses in all her videos?

Perhaps I dreamt this...
