Strength level calculator
Absolute load says little without body weight. Multiples of body weight are how strength is actually compared.
Total as a multiple of body weight
5.250
- Squat multiple
- 1.750
- Bench multiple
- 1.250
- Deadlift multiple
- 2.250
- Total lifted
- 420.0
- Bench as a share of squat Around 70 to 75% is a balanced ratio.
- 71.4 %
- Deadlift as a share of squat Usually 115 to 130%.
- 128.6 %
Show the working
- Body weight = 80
- Squat = 140
- Bench press = 100
- Deadlift = 180
- Total lifted = 140 + 100 + 180 = 420
- Squat multiple = 140 / 80 = 1.75
- Bench multiple = 100 / 80 = 1.25
- Deadlift multiple = 180 / 80 = 2.25
- Total as a multiple of body weight = 420 / 80 = 5.25
- Bench as a share of squat = 140 > 0 ? 100 / 140 * 100 : 0 = 71.4286
- Deadlift as a share of squat = 140 > 0 ? 180 / 140 * 100 : 0 = 128.571
Values are shown to six significant figures here; the arithmetic itself runs on exact fractions and is only rounded where a number is printed.

The formula
- ratio = lift / body weight
Standards are rougher for very light and very heavy lifters, because strength does not scale linearly with body mass.
