One rep maximum (1RM) in weight training is the max amount of weight one can lift in a single repetition for a given exercise. One repetition maximum can be used for determining an individual's maximum strength and is the method for determining the winner in events such as powerlifting and weightlifting competitions.
One repetition maximum can also be used as an upper limit, in order to determine the desired "load" for an exercise (as a percentage of the 1RM).
With the 1 Rep Max app, you can enter the amount of weight you lifted on a movement and the number of reps to calculate your 1 rep max and various percentages of your one rep max.
For example you lifted 200lbs 3 times. Using this information you can calculate that your max is approximately 212lbs.
This app also can be used to quickly determine a percentage of your one rep max. Many weight programs will tell you to lift 65% of your 1RM for 5 sets of 8 reps. Using the example max from above you can determine that your max is 212 and then click over to 65% and see that you need to lift 138 in this workout.
Use this in conjunction with the Mainsite Track app also available in the app store to create custom workouts.

This app is soo helpful when I work out. Helps me figure out my max and how much weight I need to do. It calculates percentages of the Max as well. Can't get better.
Great

The 1rep max for lower body is VERY accurate:) even at high rep it stays consistent between 4-7 pounds... Upper body is very well to. It the best rep calculator I've ever used
Good for the price

Awesome app for when you're in the gym and your brain is temporarily out of order... But doesn't calculate for reps higher than 10. My only qualm.
Great app, pure n simple
