| Description: | Submaximal strength testing can be used to estimate 1 RM performance for exercisers who have inadequate experience handling heavy free weights. Generally when using a submaximal load, it is customary to use a weight that causes a client to reach momentary muscle failure within 6-10 repetitions. For the purpose of our predictors, we will be using the Baechle (2000) equation: weight (lbs) x (1 + (o.o33 x # of reps))
Remember, that before performing any more strenuous exercise to complete a proper warm-up. | ||
