For example, if a person can lift 100 pounds on a given exercise for 10 reps, the estimated one rep max would be 133 pounds for both formulae. However, if the person were to complete only 6 reps, then Epley would estimate a one rep maximum of approximately 120 pounds, while Brzycki would return an estimate of approximately 116 pounds.
Finding your one rep max is a good gage of strength. Here's how to calculate your one rep max, how to use it, how to improve it, and what a good one rep max is.
Common set & rep schemes are based on a percentage of the lifter's 1RM (one rep maximum—meaning the most weight they are capable of lifting one time). For example, 5 sets of 5 reps (5x5) at 75% of the 1RM. Rest periods between sets range from 2–5 minutes based on the lifter's ability to recover fully for the next set. [136]
She also recommends lifting weights that are 60 to 80 percent of your one rep maximum and following a plan (her recs include push-pull programs and upper/lower splits).
A repetition maximum (RM) is the maximum weight a person can lift for the indicated number of repetitions. For example, a 10RM is the weight at which a person can do 10 lifts, but fail to fully perform the 11th. Similarly, a 1RM, or one-repetition maximum, is the most a person can fully lift (at least) once.
According to this setup, a male athlete weighing 320 pounds and lifting a total of 1400 pounds would have a normalised lift weight of 353.0, and a lifter weighing 200 pounds and lifting a total of 1000 pounds (the sum of their highest successful attempts at the squat, bench, and deadlift) would have a normalised lift weight of 288.4. Thus the ...
