Male or females who plan on utilizing weight training for their fitness needs need to know this amount. It is pretty self explanatory. Your one rep max is the amount of weight you can lift for that particular exercise one time. Trying to figure this amount out can be difficult and unsafe though. There are charts that you can search on the internet that will give you an estimated one rep max from the amount of weight you lift for other reps. This is a little unreliable. The best way to do it is with a spotter. Start with a weight you know you can lift 2-3 times. Rest a good amount of time and then add some weight. Try the lift again and repeat. Make sure your spotter is there to help you if needed. Once you feel that you have reached your one rep max for that exercise, write it down. Repeat these steps for each exercise you are planning to do in your muscle training workout routine. If you are unsure, then go lower with the amount of weight. There is no room for egos!

Why do I need this?

Knowing your personal one rep max on each exercise you plan on doing will give you the best results for each exercise. Many programs out there tell you how many sets and reps to do, but will not tell you the weight that you should use. This is because each individual is different. You may be strong with one exercise, but weaker in another. Knowing your one rep max will allow you to lift the proper weights for each exercise that the program calls for.
