 I remembered this twitter post. The correlation between % of 1 rep max to number of reps to failure has been updated. This was a good way to back calculate your 1 rep max. Let's say you take 150-lbs on the bench press and do that to failure of 8 reps. You could use an online calculator to find your 1 rep max. It used to be one equation. Now, a study was done that broke it up by leg press, bench press, and all other exercises. There might be something about the big press movements versus other movements. For accuracy of 1 rep max, lifting a bit heavier and doing less reps will give a more accurate result. So, don't do like 30 reps. 

Here is the link to the article. 


The maximal number of repetitions that can be completed at various percentages of the one repetition maximum (1RM) [REPS ~ %1RM...

    • Day 274 6-3 flow drill getting chest through, arms in front. Arms get a little pinned to the side, not as much in front as I want them when I add speed. 
    • Shot 48 yesterday.  For me bogey golf is good.  I was 10 over through 7 and figured with a Par 3 and 4 coming on all I needed was birdie / par to get my 45. I had a great tee shot on #8 and sunk  a 5 footer for birdie, game was coming together, now just needed par on #9. Had a great tee drive and the green was within range for a hoped GIR or nGIR.  But I pulled the shot left into tall weeds and needed to take a drop.  So much for par, but a bogey for 46 is still good for me. I hit my lob wedge to get over a small tree and saw the ball riding nicely  on line to the pin when my club hit the ball a 2nd time on my follow through causing the ball to change directions and ended up @ pin high but along the same tall weeds I just took an unplayable out of.  had no room for a backswing, Just hacked at it and it shot across the green to the rough on the far side.  Needed a chip & 1 putt got a triple bogey. you can see the hole fall apart in the screenshot below.  
    • Day 68: Quick work with some foam balls. Trying to combine not making my right leg into a pole with slightly earlier weight forward. 
    • Good range session. Key points Controlling my left knee better. shorter backswing wrist flex I still need to get better at turning while doing wrist flex stuff and the lead leg straightening. Trying to do two things at once is tricky.
    • I googled a bit and not claiming it as fact but here's my understanding.. Carl Petterssen (Mr. Five wins) = Swedish. Swedish pancakes are iconic. So someone's highly fertile brain decided that 5 wins = CP = Swedish = Swedish Pancakes. There is no other logic connecting five PGAT wins or golf in general to pancakes.
