Estimate from Epley method

—

Na prediction alone, no be recommendation to attempt the weight. E cover only 1–10 repetitions with correct technique; fatigue, exercise type and training history affect accuracy.

Health inputs stay for this tab. Link sharing no dey available.

Formula

For r > 1, use Epley E = w(1+r/30); when r = 1, use E = w. Brzycki dey use B = 36w/(37−r). w na weight wey you lift and r na repetitions wey you complete. Both results dey use di weight unit.

Compare Epley and Brzycki estimates from set wey no reach maximum weight.

Example wey show the calculation

We check inputs for missing values and allowed ranges. Result wey pass the finite numeric range no go show. Rounding affect wetin display, while calculation use the model numeric precision.

Check your units and assumptions before you rely on result. Changing label no convert currency or physical unit.
