πŸ’‘ Deadlift 1RM Estimation

Uses the Epley formula: 1RM = Weight Γ— (1 + Reps/30). Deadlift strength standards are higher than bench press: Beginner (<1Γ— BW), Novice (1-1.5Γ—), Intermediate (1.5-2Γ—), Advanced (2-2.5Γ—), Elite (>2.5Γ— body weight).

The deadlift is often the strongest lift for most people. It works the posterior chain β€” hamstrings, glutes, erectors, traps, and grip. Training loads are typically programmed as percentages of 1RM.

120 kg Γ— 5 reps β†’ Estimated 1RM = 140 kg. At 80 kg body weight = 1.75Γ— BW (Intermediate).
