8/8 - Setting a Baseline for Strength

We continue setting our strength baseline today with CrossFit total. We'll be using these 1 rep max numbers to set weights for future workouts. 

Many CrossFit gym have transferred from assigned Rx weights to making Rx a percentage of your bodyweight and/or 1 rep max. What do you think of this approach? How would you feel if we did that at True Spirit? Read more about Rx'd here and here. 

CrossFit Total
After you have warmed-up and stretched out, you will have three attempts to find your 1 rep max in the:
Back Squat
Shoulder Press
Deadlift

You need to declare your attempts to the coach. If you don't make your attempt, you can't go down in weight. You have to try again young grasshopper. 

If you did CrossFit Total yesterday, today you will row a 2k for time.
