The Fibonacci Workout Calculator is an innovative tool crafted for fitness enthusiasts and athletes. It’s designed to optimize your weightlifting capacities across various repetition maximums (RMs) for different exercise types: classic strength like the squat, deadlift and bench press, and also weighted calisthenic push/pull exercises. This calculator is particularly valuable for those looking to enhance their main exercise in workouts, utilizing the reverse pyramid training style for maximal strength and hypertrophy gains.
This calculator uses the Fibonacci sequence to structure the number of repetitions in each set, following a unique pattern: 1, 1, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc. We concentrate on calculating weights for 3RM, 5RM, 8RM, 13RM, and 21RM, with tailored adjustments for the classic strength exercises, weighted calisthenic push, and weighted calisthenic pull exercises. This approach ensures a comprehensive workout regime, aiming to build both strength and muscle mass effectively.
Select Your Exercise Type: Choose between the classic strength trio (Squats, Deadlifts and Bench Press), weighted calisthenics push, or weighted calisthenics pull exercises. This ensures that the calculations are tailored to the specific strength capabilities of each exercise type.
Determine Your Second Set 1RM: Begin your workout with a 1RM set. Adjust the weight for your second set based on your current strength and comfort level. This personalization is crucial in reverse pyramid training, where the focus is on decreasing the weight with each subsequent set.
Enter Your Weight: Accurately input the weight for your second set 1RM in pounds or kilograms. This precision is key to ensuring the effectiveness of the subsequent calculations.
Calculate Your RMs: By clicking “Calculate,” you’ll get the estimated weights for 3RM, 5RM, 8RM, 13RM, and 21RM. The calculator is designed to support your main exercise in the workout, following the reverse pyramid style which begins with the heaviest weights and progresses to lighter ones, enhancing both strength and hypertrophy.
Tailored for Main Exercise: Specifically aimed for the first/main exercise of your workout, this tool perfectly aligns with the reverse pyramid training approach, involving a total of seven sets. This method allows you to engage in various rep ranges, effectively blending strength training with muscle building.
