Hey -,

Most people choose their training weights the same way they choose a restaurant… by feel.

Well, there's actually a formula that tells you the exact weight to use for any goal.

And this number is the foundation of percentage-based training…

Which is how most serious training programs are structured.

Simply knowing this one number can give you an objective measure of progress over time.

And once you know that, every working weight you'll ever need is just a percentage away.

Best,

Jeremy & The BWS Team

PS: This calculator uses the Epley formula.

It’s one of the most validated one-rep max estimation equations in strength research.

And it works like this…

Let’s say you lift 185lbs for 5 reps.

Your estimated one-rep max is 185 x (1 + 5/30) = ~216lbs.
