Lifting speed for 1RM

[Countryside]

Hi, I've never taken my 1RM before. I was wondering what speed or pace we should be lifting when doing the 1RM. Should we be going slow like in slow and heavy or the speed like in muscle max?

Rep speed will vary depending on the exercise and mesocycle, but the vast majority of exercises are done at a normal tempo.
