Is there any benefit to 1rm as far as strength gains, whats the big deal?
Strength is measured in 1RM. Strength is the answer to the question "Did I move object X with weight Y?"
That said, accurately measuring 1RM is tough because many small variables can throw someone off when attempting one.

Allegedly they are very different - this comes from Rip, Tate, and many others who have used both. I am pushing a sled because I got it welded for cheap and didn't want to pay shipping or the exorbitant prices on a Prowler.
