!!!!TEST WEEK!!!!!
This week we will be testing our 1RM (1 repetition maximum) for each of the strength training movements we've been training.
IT IS CRITICAL THAT WE TRACK THESE NUMBERS!!
As you all know, we do our strength training based on percentages of our 1 repetition maximum. It will be much easier to do our workouts if you know exactly what your 100% is in each lift.
Monday: Back Squat 1 RM
Tuesday: Push Press 1 RM
Wednesday: Deadlift 1 RM
Thursday: Bench Press 1 RM
Friday: Front Squat 1 RM
For best results, I'm going to recommend everyone follow this rep scheme for finding your 1 RM on each movement. It might work for you, it might not. Just a suggestion for those who might be unsure of how to properly attack a new personal best.
4 reps @ 65%
3 reps @ 75%
2 reps @ 85%
1 rep @ 92.5%
1 rep @ 95%
THEN GET HUGE AT YOUR NEW 1 RM!
