[supers] [powers] super strength; treat me like I have non-sapient IQ - Page 2

After noticing a few other threads, I'm relieved to find that I'm not the only own who feels that the Super ST charts are somewhat difficult to understand.
I'm not complaining; I'm sure that the system works fine. However, I have to be honest and say that I'm a little lost when it comes to applying Super ST to a character. I've been using GCA as an aid for me to learn more of the system, but adding Super ST to a character in GCA produced numbers which I'm not sure that I understand.

So, if someone would be so kind as to break things down for me and help me to understand Super ST, I'd appreciate it.

What I understand: Super ST is kept track of seperately from regular ST. I understand also that Super ST allows someone to do more damage, lift more, and etc while using Super Effort.

What I don't understand: How the math behind Super ST works. I'm not fully understanding where some of the numbers come from when I quick view the character I made using GCA. I also don't quite understand what some of the numbers mean.

If it would help, I could post the character I made pre-Super ST and use that as a common reference point...
