Weight Calculator for One Rep Max Sets (Uusing Rate of Perceived Exhaustion).

What is this?

This is a program that automates the process we follow at my gym to calculate the weight we should lift in our sets based on our RPE, one rep max, and set count.

What is RPE?

RPE stands for Rate of Perceived Exertion. It is a subjective measure used to gauge the intensity of exercise or physical activity, based on an individual's personal perception of how hard they feel they are working.

The RPE scale usually ranges from 1 to 10, where 1 represents a very light activity, and 10 represents an all-out maximal effort.
