I would follow what EC has laid out as far as the omissions. But you could change the last upper body a bit to doing some light work sans the max stuff as well.

And then save all the testing for "week 17" such as you have just laid out.

Keep in mind, though, that it makes perfect sense the way he did it. It is "competition day" more or less and this, after all is a strength program not a deadlift, squat, or press program.

So either way you choose to do it makes no never mind to me. You may lift more giving it a whole week and psychologically, that is a very good thing. Just doesn't necessarily reflect "the real world" as far as preparedness is concerned. But we don't care about that! We want to lift more when we can.

I also don't think you perform very well in the midst of a lot of high intensity activity in one day. For me...just doing maxes like that it wouldn't make too much difference whether I tested them all at once or not because that kind of thing actually tends to HELP me lift more. But for you I think only your first few things would be really good. Can't say for sure of course.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
