How 1RM is calculated

A One Rep Max (1RM) is the maximum amount of weight you can lift for a single repetition of a given exercise. Since testing your absolute maximum can be dangerous and taxing, we use predictive formulas.

Our calculator uses the Brzycki Formula, developed by Matt Brzycki:
Weight / (1.0278 - (0.0278 * Reps))

Using training percentages

Most strength programs (like 5/3/1 or Starting Strength) rely on percentages of your 1RM rather than the max itself.

  • 90-100%: Absolute strength and power development.
  • 75-85%: Ideal for hypertrophy (muscle building) and strength.
  • 60-70%: Muscular endurance and technique work.
