5/3/1 Question (about Finding Maxes)

I’ve been using online calculators (using my 95% times number of reps) to figure my max in order to get my percentages correct on my lifts. This has been working, until i lost the calculator i was using. Is this good enough, or does anyone have other advice?

The equation Wendler recommended was:

((rep x weight) x 1/30) + weight = 1RM.

Honestly, I’d just guess, and take 5kg off just to be safe.

In any case, that equation turned out to be a pretty accurate predictor in the 8-12 rep range… for me.

weight x rep x 0.0333 + weight = 1rm
