One-Repetition Maximum (1RM) Strength Calculator Result

--
FormulaBrzycki: 1RM = Weight / (1.0278 - [0.0278 × Reps]) Epley: 1RM = Weight × (1 + [0.0333 × Reps]) Lander: 1RM = (100 × Weight) / (101.3 - [2.67123 × Reps])

Clinical Pearls

Eliminates the acute musculoskeletal injury risk of testing true maximal 1RM loads in recovering orthopedic and physical therapy patients.

Limitations

Calculations are most reliable when submaximal testing is performed within 2 to 10 repetitions to voluntary fatigue.
