Training table

The percentage table is a load-planning reference. It does not assess readiness, technique, fatigue, or injury risk.

Limitations
  • Estimated 1RM is not a recommendation to attempt a maximal lift. Use appropriate technique, supervision, and load progression.
  • Health results are educational estimates, not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation. Individual circumstances may require a qualified clinician's assessment.
