How GYMKC sets the weight for this exercise

For example, if you do 3 reps with 60 kg and log that you could have done about 2 more, GYMKC estimates your 1RM at about 69.5 kg.

With the barbell, each step is 2.5 kg (5 lb), so the next weight is 62.5 kg. Within your 3–5 reps target, the sets you log decide whether to add reps first or add weight.

These numbers are an example of how the calculation works. Your actual prescription is recalculated every set from your own records. See how the calculation works
