Not sure if there is "one" correct speed - I have conducted 1 rep max using the same rep speed to replicate results - e.g. In the bench press, squat and deadlift the weight has to be lowered in a controlled manor therefore an eccentric speed of 2 - 3 seconds may be desirable - if the athlete cannot control the eccentric speed of the movement then they have surpassed their 1 RM as a general guide.

It is lift dependent - because the Olympic Lifts require the movement to be completed explosively, therefore with explosive movements a favorable fast rep speed would be desired with maintenance of good form. E.g. If you have athletes performing plyometric type exercises - then maintenance of form would be the main criteria for the depth of the jump etc.

Good luck with your testing

Hi Giovanni,

I don't understand the question--the "speed for recording 1RM?"

The only thing I can think of where speed is relevant to your question is if you are video-recording the attempt: the speed of the camera. But speed has no relevance to testing for a 1RM: the person can perform the lift or he/she can't.

Teresa,
Doesn't force change with speed?

Regarding the SPEED of a 1RM;

A 1RM will always be performed at the maximum safe speed, or else it will
not represent a 1RM.

Any effort attempted to use a "timed" or speed controlled rep will detract
from maximal effort, and will not yield a 1RM.

A 1RM is representative of the maximum load, resistance, or weight that one
can use for a single rep of an action. If we employ a speed controlled
(TUL) component, the level of ability to use the load will be compromised.

While we will certainly observe that some 1RM's will appear to move slowly,
this is relative to the load moved. A heavy load will reduce speed when
increased until their will be an inability to produce motion.

I might add, that a 1RM will also represent maximum Power Expression for a
lift, action, or exercise.

John,
Maximum power, according to the articles I have read, takes place at about
1/3 of maximum force. See also the graph
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Muscle_Force_Velocity_relationship.png
Therefore what your are saying implies that 1RM is at about 1/3 of maximum
force. Is that what you mean?
