Thought I'd share this link with you. It calculates an approximate 1RM based on poundage and reps. I find it's a good way to track progress on each lift, since otherwise it is difficult to tell whether or not 260x6 is an improvement over 225x12 (for example). I also use it to help select exercises when I am changing cycles. I tend to keep using exercises where I am gaining strength, and phase out those where I am plateaued. Then, when I come back to them, I can usually see movement. Hope you find it useful.
