The newest version of the Workout Manager (2.3) is now live and features video clips for every exercise in the STS program that you can quickly play by simply going to your calendar and launching your workout card for any disc. You will now see a "Play" icon next to every exercise on your workout card. Just click the play icon and you can now view a video clip from STS showing that exercise.

Another major new feature we have added are two new columns: "Actual Weight" and "Actual Reps". From now on you will use these columns to record your actual weight and reps after completing a workout. If you have already recorded and saved results they will now appear in "Actual Weight" and "Actual Reps".

You can also now easily take your 1RM for any exercise right from your workout card. Just click on the edit icon next to the exercise on your workout card and follow the instructions. Adjusting your 1RM for any exercise is also now a snap. If you have already taken a 1RM test for an exercise, but felt the weight was too heavy or too light just click on the edit icon on the right side of your workout card. Then enter the weight you felt you should of used and your 1RM will be adjusted accordingly for all future workouts.

Very nice indeed (to bad it requires IE and does not work in firefox), but it's not like it's the only thing I need to use IE for. :rolleyes:
 
Thank you!! That's very nice. I LOVE the video -- that's really helpful!

I have a question/suggestion for future updates (I'll use disc 10 as an example since that's the one I'm doing today). There are certain exercises, like #696 -- the superset seated lateral raise and seated rear flys -- where it doesn't tell you the weight to use for 70% of your 1RM (it says NA), even though I did a test for both exercises. I'm assuming this is because you have them listed together as one exercise on the workout card. It would be really nice if you could fix it so that it tells you the weight to use. It's just that it took a long time to go through the system and find my 1RM for 2 exercises, and then I had to calculate what 70% would be on my own. That's fine, and luckily I know how to do it :p, but it would just be a nice to have it done automatically like it is for other exercises. Did that make sense? Anyway, thanks for everything. This really is an AWESOME system -- all of it -- the workouts, the workout manager, Cathe TV!! You guys have really outdone yourselves!! ;) :)

The Workout Manager is thoroughly tested in Firefox as this is the browser we design with. You might just need to upgrade Firefox or clean out the cache in your browser.
 
Question about changing 1RM by using Workout Card

I did not see the edit icon on my Workout Card. I use IE, do you have any suggestions. Also, love the video clips of each exercise.

Try logging off and then open a new browser window and log back on. The edit icon will be just to the left of the "Play Video" icon.
 
This is so great! By the time I get to the STS workouts you will have all the glitches out of the WM and have the whole thing perfected and down to a smooth science! I love it!
 
Probably just clear your cache, but are you looking at the Calendar tab? The icons will only show on the workout cards in the calendar, not the workout cards you see when you click the STS icon.

I still don't see it, can you put up a sample page where the edit icon is to the left of the play video icon.
My original question had to do with editing a 1rm from workout card. I am not seeing anything that will allow me to do that.

When I click on the edit icon that SNM is talking about it asks me if I want to recalculate my 1 RM.

It wasn't until a few weeks ago that I realized that you can access the workout cards by downloading an STS rotation into the "calendar" section of the Workout Manager. Is that where you're accessing your cards from, or are you doing it by going into the STS tab in Workout Manager?
