Health test Q3 2023

It was July 2023 and I wanted to perform a comprehensive Health test that I would be trying every quarter. My bodyweight at the time was about #185 (86kg) and I’m a 49 year old male. 

Here’s the outline and the results of the test:

ComponentType Test dayExercisesResult
Upper body, pullStrengthMondayChin-up with Bodyweight + #706 reps
Upper body, pushStrengthMonday Standing Press #125 6 reps
RunCardioTuesday1.1 mile7.35(about 7 min mile)
Lower body, pullStrengthWednesdayDead-lift 2x Bodyweight (#370)2 reps
Upper body, pushStrengthFridayBench press bodyweight (#185)6 reps

Looking back at the test I realize I could have added some more long-form Cardio into the mix as well. There were a few lifts I had expected to lift more in – but that’s the score as it was then 🙂
