1RM Printout Sheets

[christosz]

I was playing around with the 1RM tab in WM, and I was wondering... Since many of us do not have our PCs or Macs anywhere near our workout room, and writing down each and every exercise on a sheet of paper to jot down the weights we lifted will take forever, would it be possible to print the list of exercises from the 1RM pull down menu (maybe according to STS disc #) in some sort of spreadsheet form?

Thanks,
Chris.

Great idea, Chris! I was thinking the same thing!

You can easily print a workout card for any STS disc# by simply going to the WM and then do the following:

#1 Click on the date you would like to schedule an STS workout for and you will automatically be taken to Agenda View. Since you’re really not a scheduling anything now you can select any date you prefer.
#2 In the “STS” orange highlighted cell select “Add New” and a new window will launch.
#3 Next, in the “Select STS Disc Number dropdown” box select the STS disc you wish to schedule a workout for. All of the exercises for the disc you have chosen, along with other information, will automatically load in the same order as the DVD.
#4 Simply click on the “Print and Save Workout card” button you see at the bottom of the popup window. As long as you have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer your workout card will appear and you will just need to click on the printer icon and then click okay.

Thanks for the response, Chris!

I was looking at the Workout Manager software yesterday with no problems, but now it's giving me an error message telling me that I need to log in, even though I'm already logged in (I can see my username at the top of the page). Anyone else having this same problem?

I have done all of this. When I click print, all I get is a blank white screen. What should I do?

We will LOVE you to share that excel sheet!
Im an excel junkie!

LOL me 2!!!

Still, I tried to do it and I realized it takes too long and I have to delete repetitive exercises, exercises which require no weights, sort them according to muscle group so I can have an "organized" 1RM test, and ended up with 40 sheets!!!

So, I switched to FileMaker, adding the exercises one by one (including exercise number, description, muscles worked, my weight and reps) then realized again that there are many exercises which I don't know what muscle group they work or how to do them... LOLOLOL

I also did a 1RM test for exercise # 621 and 178. When I tried to insert STS Disc #1 on a date in the calendar I get 6 different 1RM and 60% weight values for #621 and 2 different for #178...

Would it be possible for the guys over at SNM to advice us on which exercises we should focus on, or maybe give us a list we can use?

Chris.
