I remember last year in September I could barely do 3 reps with 95lbs. Made some gains
Also does anyone know any overhead press percentage calculators?

Great form man! Pushing it hard!
What do you mean by an overhead press percentage calculator? I have never heard of one :P

It's a calculator that tells you your 1 rep max, 90% of 1RM, 80% of 1RM, 70% of 1RM, and so on. There's a lot of calculators for squat, bench and deadlift but I can't find one for OHP.
Nice man! Keep up the improvements
This is just my opinion...but who cares what a calculator says!? :P
Find your 1RM by pushing as much as and as hard as you can. You know you can do, what was it, 95lbs for 6 reps? So keep bumpin it up and see what you can do. Don't let a calculator tell you how much you can lift...get out there and lift it yourself! #HTH

Form looks great! As for calculators I have always used the 1RM Calculator from Bodybuilding.com but I am recently finding they aren't accuarate. Just hit the gym on your best day and find your 1 RM youreslf, don't rely on those calculators.
Exactly! @ohawkey Where do you need you 1 rm for? Want to build your training with percentages of your 1 rm? I noticed that my 'training 1rm' is usually a bit lower than my real 1rm. Make sure to consider that when determining your percentages.
Thanks man!
I just wanted to have an estimate so I know where to aim when I go for a max. Right now I have no idea where I'm at.
Just as an estimate so I know which weight to aim for. But yeah, maybe when I get more familiar with doing heavy OHP I'll have an idea where to aim.
Alright man, thanks!
