Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are rep estimations?
Formulas are reasonably accurate for 1-10 reps. Accuracy decreases for higher reps due to fatigue and muscle endurance factors.
What percentage of 1RM should I use?
Strength (1-5 reps): 85-100%. Hypertrophy (6-12 reps): 67-85%. Endurance (12+ reps): Below 67%.
Why can't I hit the estimated reps?
Formulas assume fresh muscles. Fatigue, poor form, inadequate rest, or nutrition can reduce actual performance.
Should I train to failure?
Occasionally for testing, but regular training 1-3 reps from failure is safer and more sustainable for progress.
How often should I test my 1RM?
Every 8-12 weeks for experienced lifters. Beginners can test more frequently as they progress rapidly.
