@Jonathan it would be nice if on that page I could find a video on each type of exercise (how to do it well)
Or you can just google the âhow toâ for all of them in a couple of minutes.
Look up Alan thrall he has great videos for them.
Donât diss me like that please!
This is great, but I think itâd be wise to include a disclaimer telling people not to start at these levels.
This is awesome!
It certainly would be. But than again we have natural selection for a reason
I think that having everything spelled out (disclaimers, video tutorials) makes people lazy. It is in everyoneâs interest to learn to use the brain (and donât take it personally @megsambit because I assume you know better than to test at those weights).
Sucking at chin-ups: itâs not because my arms are too weak, itâs because my legs are too heavy!
Is there a âCore Calculatorâ on the way?
Bench marks are interesting but a more useful calculator would be to take your 1 rep max in these lifts and then use that to calculate rep targets for a workout routine to improve (like what TR does with FTP)
Better than my âarms of a sprinter, legs of a climberâ combination
Do you think some maximums should be set?
E.g. if youâre a 130 lb climber, your bench press should be no higher than 25 lbs?
Agree, or maybe some tool tip with image/description. Would make it strength training beginner friendly.
Can you add single leg presses as well?
Also, great work!
Nice
Good stuff! Thanks TR team.
Cut the regular leg press in half.
Its not that simple. I can do probably about 300 lbs with both legs, but only 110 with one.
It also needs to take into account the riders age.
Use relative intensity and follow recommendations on the right. For total number of reps, use Prilepinâs chart. Do squats, deadlifts, rows, pull up/downs. And single leg stuff.
Zero. Do single leg squats, deadlifts, lunges, step ups instead.
That means you have an Imbalance.
