Doing STS Again...HELP!

[meliffy18]

For those of you who did the program more than once, did you redo your 1RM the 2nd time around? I know mine will be different from when I 1st took the test over a year ago since I've gotten much stronger. Also, when you record your results online, any idea if this is actually taken into account for future workouts? Like, say I went over what the 1RM suggests for disc 1; when the exercise repeats on disc 4, will it take that new weight into account?

TIA!

When I repeated STS for the second time, if I was able to lift heavier the second time around, then after completely each workout in the first week, I went into each workout on the workout manager calendar and edited each workout changing the amount of weight I used if it was different then the first time I completed the workout. When you change the weight that way, it recalculates itself on all the workouts to come. Does this make sense? It always makes more sense in my head, but then don't always do such a good job explaining it out loud.

I thought I saw somewhere that you should be lifting about 5% heavier when you finish STS. I don't know where I saw that, but I added 5% to all my weights the second time around, and it worked great. I'm getting ready to start it a third time, so I'll add another 5%, up a total of 10% heavier than when I started.
