A Bench Press Calculator is a tool designed to estimate an individual's one-rep max (1RM), which is the maximum weight they can lift for one repetition of the bench press exercise. By inputting the weight lifted and the number of repetitions performed, the calculator uses a specific formula, such as the Epley formula, to provide an estimated 1RM. This helps users gauge their strength level and set appropriate weightlifting goals.

Bench Press (1RM) Calculator Instructions
This bench press calculator helps you estimate your one-rep max (1RM) for the bench press. It does this by taking the weight you can lift for a certain number of repetitions and applying a formula to give you an approximate 1RM. Keep in mind, though, that these calculations aren’t always spot-on.
To use the calculator, just enter the weight you lifted in the first box and choose the number of reps from the dropdown menu. For example, if you can bench 225 lbs for 10 reps, you would input 225 and select 10 reps. The calculator works for both pounds and kilograms!
