To make it a bit quicker, many programs/trainers use some common percentages: 1RM = 100% 3RM = 90% 5RM = 85%
Considering this, how do you calculate 1rm from 3rm?
Start by computing your 1RM; just divide 245 pounds by 0.80, which estimates your single-rep max to be 306.25, which can be rounded down to 305. To find your 3RM, note that 3 corresponds to 93% 1RM, so multiply 305 x 0.93, which estimates your working weight to be 285 (rounded up) pounds.
