How do you know your percentages?


Either test your squat, bench and deadlift to find your 1 rep max. Aaron Asmus recommends using 90percent of your true max as your training max.

Or just guess what would be a challenging weight and use that as your estimated max.

Been working through P&P programs for over a year now. Have worked through at least 10 of them and really enjoy the structure. Working out 3 mornings a week. But it is getting repetitive, and I'm looking for more cardio now that I feel good in my form, in my maxes, and seeing some gains.

Any advice on other programs to move to that would still involve basic lifting but also get the heart rate up more often?

Thank you, very helpful. One last question, how do you know when to increase you max? Meaning, when I started and my bench max was 130 for example, when do I raise that max to 150
