Ok i did not know what to title this but i was just thinking and figured this would be a great place to ask
clearly everyone has different sizes and strengths but i always find it interesting how people the exact same size as myself or any 2 guys paired up might be so much better at things then others one stronger on squats and another on deads etc blah blah
So my question is. in theory is there a way to find out or figureout what your Max 1rep is based on what you can do for say 10 5 or 3 reps max?
to keep things simple lets say
benching a guy can do
95x10
135x5
185x3
so based on this can we determine what his 1 rep max would be? is there a scientfic way to figure this out...? i hope my question makes sense..
now to reword this and throw in my exact situation
My Benching
at my best i was doing like 225x13 might be my best, the heaviest i ever went was 275x2 and that was a complete struggle does this make sense to most of you? adding 50lbs removes 11 reps?
my last barbell bench press day from not benching in like a year on a bar i did 225x5 easy, and ive been doing dumbells at 90x8 easy and 100x5 first time doing 100s in long long time easy too
just wondering in theory what my potential max is based on numbers?
im not making a big deal of this to myself, i have just always pondered this question.. ya know
lastly my squat numbers are lets see
375x1 Max
225x20 max
did 285x5x5x5 working sets last workout
these numbers look normal? im very happy with my squatting lately, i go very low and make sure i do i wish i could tape my workouts maybe i will next squat day or something so i can get helped on form and stuff
ill shusshupp
any feedback on this topic would rock
if there was a formula and someone knew their 1 rep max on bench say 315x1 then i would imagine they should be able to get 265x10? maybe and 225x20 or more perhaps?
just thinking wondering if any of you think about this too thanks
