1 RM Bench Press Test

I woke up early enough to walk/run before going to work. The run was harder than expected, but I always feel tight in the morning. After the workout, I cycled the routes to determine distance and pace.

Walk:
1.43 miles
24:19
17:00 pace

Run:
0.54 mile
5:59
11:05 pace

Trail Bike:
1.97 mile
11:53
9.95 mph

At work I had a wild-hair to do a one repetition test for my bench press. I went through the dumbbells up to 70 pounds and had to move to the bench press machine. From there I maxed out at 215 pounds. My training weight is going to be a lot higher than I suspected.
