I get your point. I'm saying there's nothing perfect. What would be better in your opinion. Maxing out one rep, 5 reps? I think they just settled on standard weight, and added the stamina factor.

They could make a pop machine similar to the old punching bag machine that measured your strike :)

Next you'll be wanting mechanical bull riding as part of the evaluation.

Utilize bands or chains to measure explosiveness, and have them rip off 5 x 5 at the highest weight they can manage. That would give a much more accurate picture of the strength of their strike.

I'd love to see them build a machine (like a sled cushion that doesn't slide) that the guys could strike similar to real play. They could measure lbs/force of blow.
