Scoring for the Powerlifting Calculator:

The powerlifting calculator will automatically determine your total weight lifted based on your 4 lifts (Press, Bench, Squat, and Deadlift).  The powerlifting strength calculator will automatically adjust your lift to an estimated one rep max.  The calculator will make adjustment for your weight depending on the lift.  Based on your gender it will compare your total scores against an elite athlete at the same weight and gender.  Based on the division of these two elements (your total / elite total), the powerlifting calculator determines a simple score out of 100.  The higher the score, the stronger you are.

Weight Classes for Paul’s Powerlifting Calculator:

All lifters will be weighed in with the clothes (not shoes) they are going to lifting.  Weight classes are 25 pounds apart.  100, 125, 150, etc.  Your weight class will be rounded to the nearest class.  So 113-132 will be in the 125 pound weight class.
