Training Max Calculator
A training max is a hair under the tested or estimated single, usually 90% and sometimes 95%. Daily loads are then taken from that smaller number, so a slow day does not rewrite the plan.
Enter a max above zero.

If you do not have a tested single yet, estimate one on the main calculator and bring that number here. Raise the training max only after the top sets move cleanly for more than one week.
Questions
What is a training max?
A number below your best single, usually 90% or 95%, so the top set is not a max every week.
Should I use 90% or 95%?
90% leaves more room when the single was a grind. 95% is closer to the tested max.
