Strength Standards Calculator

See where your bench, squat and deadlift sit against strength standards by body weight and sex, from published strength-level tables. An estimate for comparison — standards are population guides, not pass/fail lines.

Next level (Elite): a squat of 166 kg at your body weight.

Standards are population guides, not pass/fail lines. Body weight, limb lengths, age and training history all shift where you sit.

Formula & source — Bodyweight-multiple standards — approximate guide
Level = 1RM ÷ body weight, compared with ratio bands adapted from the published strength standards of Kilgore, Rippetoe & Hartman (Practical Programming, 3rd ed.) and the population tables published by Strength Level. Exact published tables are given per body-weight class and differ slightly between sources, so this tool uses conservative ratio bands as an approximate guide rather than reproducing one source's class-by-class table exactly.
