Misc : Awesome 1rm calculator

1rm equation

(Weight x Reps x .033) + Weight = Projected Max

Note : With reps anything over 8 starts to get really stupid for example

For example lets a person with a 3rm of 100kgs (rm = rep max)
(100kgs x 3reps x 0.033) + 100 = 109.9kgs

Another example
(60kgs x 10reps x 0.033) + 60 = 79.8kgs

Now lets use this equation with a 100rm of 20kgs

(20kgs x 100reps x 0.033 ) + 20 = 86kgs

Best results are to use reps under 8
