I found the answer to my question in another post (amount calculates when you print workout card). I left the post incase somebody out there thinks the way I do:
So, I am feeling very dimwitted right now. I thought I had this whole thing figured out - Until I did STS Total Body (upper split) with my results from the 1 rm test. Anyhow, the weights were much too high for me. I decided to double check what I did wrong. I am pretty sure my error was this, I used the number I got for 1rm to complete each exercise.
My 1rm for flat bench was 56lbs. I was able to do the first set of 16. Then the next set, could barely lift it.
Am I suppose to take a percentage of 56lbs? Is there a calculator for that? I tried to find a post, but am having "post drain", as opposed to "mall drain".
Thanks for any clarification.
