What is RPE?

Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a subjective scale used to measure how hard a set feels. In powerlifting and strength training, the Tuchscherer/RTS scale is the standard — it runs from 6.5 to 10, where RPE 10 means you could not have done another rep, and RPE 7 means you had 3 reps left in the tank.

The complementary metric is RIR (Reps In Reserve) — the number of reps you could still do before technical failure. RPE 10 = 0 RIR. RPE 9 = 1 RIR. RPE 8 = 2 RIR. RPE 7 = 3 RIR, and so on.

This generator uses the Tuchscherer RPE percentage table to calculate your estimated 1-rep max from any single working set, then populates the full matrix so you can plan every training block with precision — no guessing, no leaving gains on the table.
