How do you measure your training and your progress?
For those of you who lift and do conditioning outside your normal class, what tests do you do to determine what areas you need to work on and how effective your training programme is?
For example testing strength improvements is relatively easy: you can test 1 or 3 or 5 rep maxes at the beginning and end of your training programme, but how do you test explosiveness and muscular endurance, or Aerobic and anaerobic levels and conditioning? And how do you measure improvements in the above after you have completed a programme?
