    Nice Job today.
    I wrote down what their % is off of their one rep max for the rest of you.
    Hitting a set of 10 at 80% or higher is great. 80% is a good standard to try to reach, it is very challenging.
    Ladies for the most part can hit higher rep sets at higher %'s of their 1RM compared to men.
    So if ladies are around 85%, I would not be super surprised.
    King was also at exactly 80%.
    Do not warm up with sets of 10, instead do sets of 5 or so until you get to 70-75% for your first attempt at a 10RM, and then go from there depending on the difficulty of that 10.
    Do not think your 3rd attempt will be the best, go for the 75-80%ish range on the second set, you will be wasted on your third attempt at 10.
    Rest between sets of 10. I do not mean 1 min rest, I mean 3-5 Minutes rest. Make sure you are 100% and don't rush the reps. Its ok to stand for 3 sec or so between reps, make sure when you go down, you are getting back up. You don't want to fail on rep 7 or 8 because you tired to rush it.

    Yeah, I like squatting, and used to do it often.. obviously.
