First: How should I be entering in the weight value for exercises using a barbell when calculating the rep max? For example: if I am lifting a barbell with 10 pounds of discs on each side, do I enter in 10 pounds? 20 pounds? 20 pounds plus the wieght of the bar?

Second: Anyone know a source for purchasing one of those adjusting height, pull up stands that Cathe and some of the ladies in the STS DVDs use for the modified pull ups?
 
For the 1RM using BB: You would enter the weight of the bar and total weight of the plates you are using.

SNM/Cathe sell that tower. They designed it and are selling it. I think it is called the pull up tower but it was created to also use for chest presses/etc but NOT squats.
