Went training with my brother-in-law last week and after I did my working set for squats he asked me what my 1rm was. I said I’d never tested it and he goaded me into giving it a go. Managed a decent form rep at 120kg and called it a day at that.
It’s good to know I can lift that weight, but I’d already dropped back down to 90kg now for my working sets and cycling back up towards 105kg.
I’ve also got fat since beginning to lift so I’m now cutting to lose 5kg or so. Will be interesting to see how that affects my progress. 👍
