It also enables both trainers and clients to manually update 1RM values.The system automatically estimates 1RM using Epley’s formula, ensuring progressive strength training.
Key Functionalities
1. Assigning 1RM % in Workouts
1RM tracking field is available as “secondary tracking field” with Repetitions as primary tracking field.
Automated Weight Calculation: When adding an exercise to a workout, trainers can assign the weight as a percentage of the client’s 1RM (e.g., 70% of 1RM). The system then calculates the actual weight based on the latest 1RM value.
Dynamic Progression: If a client logs a heavier weight, their 1RM estimate updates automatically, ensuring workout intensity adjusts to their progress.
2. Auto-Calculation Using Epley’s Formula
The system estimates 1RM using Epley’s formula:
1RM = Weight × (1 + Reps/30)
For example, if a client lifts 50kg for 8 reps, their estimated 1RM is: 50 × (1 + 8/30) = 63.3kg
This auto-adjusts as clients log heavier lifts.
3. Updating 1RM Manually
Trainers and clients can manually update 1RM values for better accuracy.
For Trainers:
Open the client’s profile and go to the Progression tab.
Click Set 1RM and choose the relevant exercise from the Exercise Progression list.
Set the value and save
For Clients : Clients can manually update their 1RM value in their workout log if they believe the estimated number is inaccurate.
Client Experience
Clients see their target weights based on their 1RM percentage when following a workout.
Their 1RM updates dynamically based on logged workouts and manual edits.
Clients can track their progress by viewing 1RM records for each exercise.
Key Benefits
✅ Automates weight assignments, reducing manual adjustments for trainers.
✅ Ensures progressive overload, adapting workouts to a client’s strength gains.
✅ Empowers clients by allowing them to track and fine-tune their 1RM values.
