One-Rep Max Calculator

Estimate maximum strength without performing a true one-rep test.

Uses the Epley estimate. Best suited to controlled sets of 1–10 repetitions; do not exceed safe loads.

Estimated one-rep max

How it works

The Epley equation is an estimate and becomes less reliable at high rep counts. Use safe technique and appropriate supervision.

Estimated 1RM = weight × (1 + reps ÷ 30)

Worked example

Lifting 100 units for 5 reps gives an estimated 116.67-unit one-rep max.

Frequently asked questions

What happens with invalid or incomplete inputs?

The result remains blank until the required inputs form a finite, meaningful calculation. Zero denominators and physically impossible negative quantities are not calculated.

Can I use decimal values?

Yes. The tool accepts decimals and keeps full precision for the calculation while rounding the displayed result for readability.
