abstract = {This study examined the accuracy of di erent velocity-based methods in the prediction
of bench press and squat one-repetition maximum (1RM) in female athletes. Seventeen trained
females (age 17.8   1.3 years) performed an incremental loading test to 1RM on bench press and squat
with the mean velocity being recorded. The 1RM was estimated from the load–velocity relationship
using the multiple- (8 loads) and two-point (2 loads) methods and group and individual minimum
velocity thresholds (MVT). No significant e ect of method, MVT or interaction was observed for the
two exercises (p > 0.05). For bench press and squat, all prediction methods demonstrated very large
to nearly perfect correlations with respect to the actual 1RM (r range = 0.76 to 0.97). The absolute
error (range = 2.1 to 3.8 kg) for bench press demonstrated low errors that were independent of the
method and MVT used. For squat, the favorable group MVT errors for the multiple- and two-point
methods (absolute error = 7.8 and 9.7 kg, respectively) were greater than the individual MVT errors
(absolute error = 4.9 and 6.3 kg, respectively). The 1RM can be accurately predicted from the
load–velocity relationship in trained females, with the two-point method o ering a quick and less
fatiguing alternative to the multiple-point method.},
