News archives for training

The gory details can be found here.

Released a preliminary version of my new site Virtualmeet.net yesterday. The site is dedicated to organizing powerlifting meets run over the internet.

Those who want the gory background details can read this post published on my powerlifting blog Under the Bar.

Released another calculator that computes bodyweight-adjusted relative strength scores for the three powerlifts as well as totals. Written in PHP as usual.

Finished a powerlifting script that computes relative strength by the most common formulas (Wilks, Reshel, Glossbrenner, NASA, Siff and Schwartz/Malone) for one or more lifters. It also comes with an introduction to the wonderful world of relative strength.

Wrote a dirty little PHP script to generate a personal record matrix out of a plain text file to save me from the thumping headache associated with manually managing the jungle of <td> tags that comprises my powerlifting personal record matrix. Besides being practical, the script also adds a few goodies that are not feasible to do manually. tsampaPRtable is GPLd, so feel free to grab a copy whatever your PR needs.

Added a page to keep track of my progress in the key powerlifting exercises.

Wrote a script to generate a five-week Westside Barbell Dynamic Effort Squat Cycle. I plan to add other useful scripts as I need them in the new powerlifting scripts sub-section of my site.

Gave my powerlifting training routines their own page to save them from getting lost in the blog noise.

Added a page on my forest gym.
