Fitness Test

Jump to Comments

Yesterday I got tested.

48 crunches/minute

23 pushups max

Weight: 218 lb

Height: 76.75 in

Percent body fat: 16.7

That means I’m carrying around 36 lbs of fat. I can do without some of that for sure.

The trainer guy didn’t guide me through the 1-RM Maximum tests correctly. We never got to failure; I guess because he was concerned about injury. Fair enough. Now that I know how to do it on my own, I can get accurate numbers next time I go to a gym. These ones are low-balling it a little.

1 RM Leg Press: 275 lb

1 RM Chest Press: 165 lb

My primary goals are to increase upper & lower body strength, maintain core strength, and lose some fat.

Apart from the tests, I took it easy yesterday; so I’m due for a hard workout this evening.
