Frequently Asked Questions
It calculates multiple common one-rep max formulas, including Epley, Brzycki, Lombardi, O’Conner and Wathan, then averages them for a balanced estimate. A true one-rep set is shown as the entered weight.
Estimates are usually most useful from about 2–8 clean reps. Higher-rep sets depend more on conditioning and fatigue tolerance, so the tool marks them with lower confidence.
Not automatically. Treat the result as a planning number. For heavy singles, use warm-up jumps, safety pins or spotters, good technique, and stop if form breaks down.
