How to use the predictive 1RM (1 Rep Max) test?

If no 1RM is known, the test will prescribe loads based on gender and age.

How to start:

• Select the TEST 1RMp from the main menu
• If no 1RMs have been entered in the athletes profile, this section will read "0" (If there have been previous 1RMs either entered or predicted then these will be displayed)
• Select the exercise that you wish to test

• Once you select the exercise, FLEX calculates the prescribed loads. Follow the prompts to continue with the protocol.
• Once the test is complete, FLEX will give you the option to save this as your new 1RM.

The key to a successful prediction is to aim to move the bar as fast as possible whilst maintaining proper form.

After any set, you have the option to re-do the set if you feel that it wasn't your best effort.
