Formula
1RM = Weight × (1 + Reps/30)। 60 kg × 8 reps: 1RM ≈ 60 × 1.267 = 76 kg। Most accurate with 3-10 reps। Above 12: endurance skews estimate।
Training %
Strength: 85-95% 1RM, 1-5 reps। Hypertrophy: 65-80%, 6-12। Endurance: 50-65%, 15+। Indian gyms: Cult.fit, Gold Gym, local akharas all use these principles।
