Gauging proximity to failure in the bench press: generalized velocity-based vs. %1RM-repetitions-to-failure approaches

Abstract Background This study compared the accuracy of three generalized approaches for estimating proximity to failure during the Smith machine bench press: (i) the relationship between relative load (%1RM) and maximum repetitions performed to failure (%1RM-RTF), (ii) the relationship between maxi...
