No 1rm calculation is 100% accurate. This calculation is an accepted one in the strength community
 
Congratulations brotha man! Big numbers!!!

No, and neither is Wendler who uses it to calculate 1RM in the 5/3/1. I've fount it to be accurate +/- 5#.

So in powerlifting competitions they shouldn't have to max out anymore... Just hit something for 5 or 6 reps and just calculate from there. I mean there's definitely no variables.. It's 100% accurate...It's fool proof

I think everyone is different and there's a lot of variables with this and no 2 people are the same when it comes to reps. IMO

Is that really what you took from my post?

Reading comprehension, how does it work?

What the hell does this even mean?

And what the hell does it have to do with a 1rm calculation?
 
Congrats on the lift. I have used the same formula napalm presented for years and has always been accurate within a few pounds.
 
Congrats brother. a good hurtle to make it over!
