Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

1 repetition maximum = 400 lb

Explanation:

given data

weighs = 180 lb

lift  = 320 lb

repetitions = 8

to find out

what is his estimated 1 repetition maximum

solution

we get here 1 repetition maximum that is express as

1 repetition maximum = w × ( [tex]1+ \frac{r}{30}[/tex] )   .................1

here w is weight lift and r is complete repetition

put here value we get

1 repetition maximum =  320 × ( [tex]1+ \frac{8}{30}[/tex] )

1 repetition maximum =  320 × 1.25

1 repetition maximum = 400 lb
