establishing 1 RM for Wendler 5/3/1

I'm going to give Wendler 5/3/1 a shot. In his e-book, he commits a few pages to describing a potential 2 day/week program. That's where I'm going to start. Since Wendler programming is a function of 1 RM, my first two days of this program is dedicated to establishing my 1 RM on squat, press, deadlift and bench. Today I did squat and press.

Squat: 220#
Press: 135#

I was blown away by my squat number. I don't think my body has ever attempted to lift more than 200#. Thursday will be deadlift and bench day.
