3 would probably be bare minimum to qualify for reps, but the usual 8-12 range might be more appropriate aka working weight. It ensures there are at least some good reps in there. Obviously anything above that is more impressive.
Define “usual,” because in most strength programs I see, they rarely call for more than 5 reps in a work set (unless doing AMRAP where you need to do at least 3 or 5).
And I personally do my 1RM testing to competition form, but I get what you’re saying.
How many we talking? 3? 5? 20?
