One Rep Max Calculator (1RM) averages four validated formulas (Brzycki, Epley, Lander, Lombardi) to estimate your one-rep max from any submaximal lift, and generates a training weight table at percentages from 50% to 100% of 1RM.
One Rep Max Calculator (1RM) is a high-performance utility designed to help users streamline their workflow. Built with modern web technologies, it ensures fast processing times and high-quality outputs directly in your browser.
Brzycki (1993): 1RM = weight / (1.0278 − 0.0278 × reps). Epley (1985): 1RM = weight × (1 + reps/30). Lander (1985): 1RM = (100 × weight) / (101.3 − 2.67123 × reps). Lombardi (1989): 1RM = weight × reps^0.1. The displayed result is the average of all four. Accuracy is highest for 2–10 reps; calculations above 10 reps underestimate true 1RM due to fatigue. Never attempt true 1RM attempts without a spotter and proper warm-up.
1RM calculators are most accurate for reps of 1–10. Accuracy decreases above 10 reps because fatigue becomes a bigger factor. For best results, use a weight you can lift 3–8 reps with good form.
Brzycki (1993): 1RM = weight / (1.0278 − 0.0278 × reps). It's considered one of the most accurate for 2–10 reps on compound lifts like bench press and squat.
Common guidelines: 85–100% for strength (1–5 reps), 70–85% for hypertrophy (6–12 reps), 50–70% for muscular endurance (12–20+ reps). Beginners should stay at 70–80% and focus on technique.
Most programs re-test 1RM every 4–12 weeks. Testing too often is fatiguing and risky. Instead, use the calculator periodically with your working sets to estimate progress without true max attempts.
