Compared to a formal 1RM test, the submaximal estimation method is safer and quicker. [13] The estimate may not be accurate, but can be used as the starting point for a 1RM test. The formulas can also be used the other way, to calculate what weight is needed for a given repetition maximum, as a percent of the estimated or actual 1RM.
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.
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 ...
The bench press or chest press is a weight training exercise where a person presses a weight upwards while lying horizontally on a weight training bench. The bench press is a compound movement , with the primary muscles involved being the pectoralis major , the anterior deltoids , and the triceps brachii .
For 1RM trials, an exercise rehearsal has significant benefits. For submaximal strength training (3 sets of 80% of 1RM to failure), exercise rehearsal does not provide any benefits regarding fatigue or total repetitions for exercises such as bench press, squats, and arm curl, compared to no warm-up.

The LINPACK benchmark report appeared first in 1979 as an appendix to the LINPACK user's manual. [4]LINPACK was designed to help users estimate the time required by their systems to solve a problem using the LINPACK package, by extrapolating the performance results obtained by 23 different computers solving a matrix problem of size 100.
At the NFL combine, the bench press is used as a test of muscle strength and stamina, in which athletes lift 225 pounds (102 kg) as many times as possible. [15] Since 1994, only 20 players at the combine have managed to achieve more than 40 repetitions: 51 reps: Justin Ernest (1999) [16] 49 reps: Stephen Paea (2011) [17]
In December 2020, France 24 reported that Le Scouarnec had been sentenced to 15 years in prison after being charged in 2017 following a testimony from his neighbor's 6-year-old daughter, who was ...
