The Bench Press RM Calculator
The bench RM calculator is a tool that lets you figure out your one repetition max when doing bench press. This will help you to determine what weight you need to go for in your next training session, and it will also help gauge how many repetitions of bench are necessary to gain strength.
You should know the 1RM when creating your strength training program. The 1RM is the maximum amount of weight you can lift once, and it determines how intense your workouts will be. It's also used to calculate volume in a workout, which is important because if you don't train with enough intensity, then your muscles won't get as much stimulation as they need to grow bigger and stronger.

Among the most popular formulas, we find:
These three formulas are used in order to calculate the one rep max or the other two parameters in this calculator.
I decided to calculate the result by using the three formulas and average in order to get a more accurate result. The resulting formula is the following (simplified).
