Estimate your max, then get a useful training target. Most 1RM calculators stop at the max estimate. Jacked also gives a practical next target for training.

Estimated one-rep max is a ballpark strength estimate from a submaximal set. It is useful for trends and targets, not a perfect prediction.
A 1RM is a max estimate or test. A PR is what you have actually achieved. Jacked treats estimates as training context.
A set of five with three reps left is not the same as a set of five at failure. RIR lets the formula account for effort.
Sets around 3-10 reps with clear effort usually produce better estimates than very high-rep sets.
Use e1RM to pick sensible rep-range loads, then let performance and RIR decide the next jump.
The Jacked average uses Epley and Brzycki when valid. You can also view Epley, Brzycki, or Lander directly.
Yes. Exercise-specific pages can add better examples, but the calculator works for any lift.
Combines common e1RM formulas where valid, then adds rep maxes, percentages, and a useful target instead of stopping at a max estimate.
High-rep and sloppy sets are lower-confidence. Treat e1RM as a trend and targeting tool, not a guaranteed max.
Inputs are handled in the browser for the web tool experience. Jacked should only store lifting data when a user chooses to log it in the app.
Jacked does it for your whole workout: next-set targets, RIR, rest timing, warm-ups, PRs, and progress feedback.
