How this one rep max calculator works

The Epley formula estimates 1RM as weight x (1 + reps/30), the most widely used estimate for sets of about 10 reps or fewer; accuracy drops on higher-rep sets. The percentage chart applies standard %1RM-to-reps pairings used across strength programs (for example, about 85% of 1RM for 6 reps) so you can plan training weights without retesting your max.
