Create a mapping from reps and rpe to pct_1rm

Description

Create a mapping from reps and rpe to pct_1rm

Usage

create_map_rep_rpe_to_pct(pct_lookup_tab)

Arguments

pct_lookup_tab

A lookup table that contains columns reps, rpe and pct_1rm.

Value

A function taking arguments reps and rpe, returning a numeric vector.

Examples

resulting_function <- create_map_rep_rpe_to_pct(pct_lookup_rts)

Estimated one rep max

Description

Estimated one rep max

Usage

e1rm(weight, reps, rpe, pct1rm_func)

e1rm_rts(...)

e1rm_helms(...)

e1rm_brzycki(...)

Arguments

weight

Numeric vector of weights, one entry per set.

reps

Numeric vector of reps, one entry per set.

rpe

Numeric vector of RPEs, one entry per set.

pct1rm_func

A function which takes reps,rpe and returns an estimated percentage of one rep max.

...

Arguments passed to e1rm().

Value

A numeric vector of estimated one rep max values for each set.

Examples

e1rm(c(400, 300), c(1, 10), c(9, 6), pct1rm_rts)
e1rm_rts(c(400, 300), c(1, 10), c(9, 6))
e1rm_helms(c(400, 300), c(1, 10), c(9, 6))
e1rm_brzycki(c(400, 300), c(1, 10), c(9, 6))

Number of hard sets

Description

Number of hard sets

Usage

hard_sets(rpe, cutoff = 7)

Arguments

rpe

A numeric vector of set RPE values.

cutoff

RPE cutoff for what qualifies as a hard set. The boundary is included.

Value

A numeric value counting the number of hard sets.

Examples

hard_sets(c(6, 7, 10, 9, NA))

Mapping from reps and rpe to pct_1rm.

Description

pct1rm_rts() uses the table provided by reactive training systems. pct1rm_helms() uses the table provided in a paper by Helms and colleagues. pct1rm_brzycki() uses the table provided by Brzycki in his book.

Usage

pct1rm_rts(reps, rpe)

pct1rm_helms(reps, rpe)

pct1rm_brzycki(reps, rpe)

Arguments

reps

A vector of repetitions performed in a set.

rpe

A vector of ratings of perceived exertion.

Details

reps must be length 1 or the same length as rpe. RPE must be length 1 or the same length as reps.

Value

A numeric vector listing the percentage of one 1 rep max.

Examples

pct1rm_rts(reps = 10, rpe = 8)
resulting_function <- create_map_rep_rpe_to_pct(pct_lookup_rts)
pct1rm_helms(reps = 5, rpe = 8)
resulting_function <- create_map_rep_rpe_to_pct(pct_lookup_rts)
pct1rm_helms(reps = 5, rpe = 8)
resulting_function <- create_map_rep_rpe_to_pct(pct_lookup_brzycki)
