Not sure BigT as I've never tested them before. I'm getting ready to pick a new lifting program and needed to test strength maxes. I've been using an iPhone app called Multi-Year Weightlifting. This app has almost every program you can imagine and uses these tests to help you choose a program.

lol...gains, i am just trying to maintain!!! arthritis is getting worse and years of alcoholic drinking are catching up with me, lol....happy to see you have taken better care of yourself over the years....

if i knew i would live this long i would have taken better care of myself, lol.
 
Yep, I write mine down in a notebook as well. Programming is done in advance and daily workouts are put on the whiteboard in the gym.
 
Nice! I'll have to check out that program. I don't test my maxes much either, I find I get stronger through sub-maximal training. That's why I love 5/3/1 so much :)

Nice numbers kenpo
 
I'm in the gym so often, I don't have to write anything down. I know where all my lifts are and which one's need more attention.
 
Dinosaurs! LMAO! I'm a nerd engineer and absolutely love the advantages of using logging applications on my iPhone. Also like that I can plan out my next lifting session. To each his own though. Beerchug.
 
Been eating maintenance plus 200, had a 35 1/4 inch waist and weighed in at 160 at the beginning of this log. This morning the waist is 34 and weight is 155! Elimistane!
 
Yesterday was a forced rest day.

Chest dips leaning forward and kissing the front bar! Lol. Since I lost 5 lbs in BW I added 5 lbs to the dip belt (total 95 lbs)! The last sets killed me.

Agree but lost 1 and 1/4 inches on waist-even better. I'm telling you this is a serious "cutting" compound.
 
As I mentioned before, I'm new to free weight squats. Prior to this I used a Smith machine that forced me to do more of a "hack squat". Free weight squats are a whole different feeling!

So, new record for me!!

Your quote fits your workout. Simple, yet ass kicking! 10x10 is definitely no joke!! Try 5x25 next time. You may have to drop a little weight.

Due to Elimistane's cutting effect I've had to add calories to maintain weight.
