One-Rep Max (1RM)

Estimates your one-rep max — and your working weights — from a set you actually did.

How this is worked out

The Epley formula. Exact at one rep and increasingly optimistic as reps rise; past about ten it stops being reliable. That is a property of the formula, not a fault in the calculator. Take the measurement from a set of three to six reps where you can.
