Program Notes

You must know your 3 rep max or 1 rep max.  If you don’t know that figure that out today. Go to your best 3 rep max then multiply that number by .03336. Multiply the number you get by 3. Then add that to the load you lifted.  Example 100lbs x 0.03336 = 3.336 then (3.336x3)+100 = 110 Theoretical 1 rep Max.  (T1RM)
