Percentage Chart
Enter your 1RM to see training weights from 50% to 100%, with each load rounded to the nearest weight you can build with standard plates.
How the rounding works
Rounded loads use the smallest standard plate pair: 2.5 kg total in kilograms (two 1.25 kg plates) and 5 lb total in pounds (two 2.5 lb plates).
Let Set do the math while you train
Log sets in plain text like 5x5 bp 80%, scan percentage or RPE programs into exact loads, and track your estimated max on iPhone and Apple Watch. Private, no account, free to start.

What percentage of 1RM should I train at?
Strength blocks often work between 70% and 90% of 1RM, hypertrophy work between 60% and 80%, and technique or speed work below 70%. Follow your program's prescription.
Can I scan a percentage program instead?
Yes. In the Set app you can scan a whiteboard, screenshot, or photo with percentage or RPE prescriptions and get exact loads from your current maxes.
