How is the 1RM predicted from a 10 Rep Max Test?

Multiply by 0.75
Divide by 0.75
Add 0.75
Subtract 0.75

The correct answer is: Divide by 0.75

When determining a 1-repetition maximum (1RM) from a 10-rep max test, you need to divide the weight lifted by 0.75. This is because the 1RM is typically estimated to be about 75% of the weight lifted for 10 repetitions. Therefore, multiplying by 0.75 (option A) would result in a number lower than the actual 1RM, making it an underestimate. Adding 0.75 (option C) or subtracting 0.75 (option D) would result in a higher number, which would also be an overestimate of the 1RM. Dividing by 0.75 (option B), however, would provide the most accurate estimate of the 1RM based on the 10-rep max test protocol.
