Short Definition
The maximum load you can lift once with proper form.
Plain-English Explanation
1RM means the maximum load you can lift once with proper form. In practice, it helps name how hard a set, session, or effort really is.
No Lies Lifting uses it as a plain-language reference point, not a magic rule by itself. One-repetition maximum.
