FAQ

Is Epley accurate?

It is quite close for low-to-moderate reps (1-10); above ~15 reps it tends to overestimate, so use a lower rep set.

Why compute 1RM?

1RM is the baseline for training intensity — e.g. 70% for endurance, 85%+ for power.

Are there other formulas?

Brzycki and others exist; this tool uses the common Epley formula.
