So, I sat down with a one-rep max lift calculator to see how close I am to my weight lifting goals. I'm doing 375 in sets of 10 on the squat (or 11 - I always hit that failure point at 12 reps with 375), and according to this calculator that means I'm at 499 lbs to 501 lbs for a one-rep max. Aye carumba! I'll have to dedicate some time to actually trying to lift my max, but of the calculators I've found they all seem to have pretty similar algorithms to figure out the max lift. At least I'm really confident that my 460 pound squat goal is within reach. :) Getting that is going to have to wait, though. It appears that I'll be testing for the next rank in Tang Soo Do in a month. That means I'm going to start a nightly practice on off days starting Friday. With luck and skill I'll be able to skip the intermediate step(s) and go directly to the next rank (belt color). White to orange would be a good step. However, for the next two nights I'll be in CPR training. Seems like a good idea. :)

Wintersmith, I sure am glad you're my buddy. It sounds like you could easily punch your way out of a concrete building. :-)

CPR training huh, you an EMT or voluteer fireman. I let my certification lapse so I need to find a class and get it done. Also good job getting your weight training in. I'm going to check out that link and see if that can help and another dimension to my weight training.

Punch? No... Sadly my upper body is not as strong proportionately. According to that same calculator I have a 245 max bench, where my goal is 260 and my long term goal is 300. If you need me to kick my way out we can talk. ;)

Neither, Splendidhammer. I'm a computer programmer but my company offers the training once per year for a two year cert. I used to keep it up all the time just in case (call it the Boy Scout in me) and I've decided to get it again.

That's cool. You could save someone's life so that's really being a good co-worker. Oh I just used that calculator and I put in one rep max for the bench press (275) and it was pretty accurate and I minght have to see where else I max out to see where I ought to be.

I'm not very familiar with all that goes into the details of weight lifting, but I'm very impressed with your dedication!

Debbra, thank you so much! Dedication and consistency are the name of the game. Splendidhammer, thanks for the test for accuracy. A couple bodybuilder friends recommended that one to me since it was pretty accurate for them as well and it saves actually trying to max out. My spotters, friendly and dedicated though they are might not be able to even team-lift 250 lbs off of me...

That's a spectacular chart you have there. Terrific work!
