%1RM CALCULATOR
Purpose
The load selected within a performance program is dependent upon the athletes training status and the desired training effect. One way of implementing training loads is to select weights based on a percentage of an athletes 1RM, with different training qualities requiring a different percentage of 1RM range (e.g. basic strength training : 85% – 100% 1RM). Similarly, training loads maybe relative to a percentage of an alternative 1RM and calculated accordingly (e.g. hex bar jumps based on 40% 1RM of an athletes back squat).
Instructions
Entire an athletes 1RM and select the desired percentage you wish to calculate, entire these figures within the appropriate cell and record the calculated percentage.
