Measured in Pounds (lbs)

Powerlifting strength standards provide a clear benchmark to compare your one-rep max lifts in the bench press, squat, and deadlift (both conventional and sumo styles) with other lifters at your bodyweight. These standards are categorised by gender and offer insights into where you stand in your powerlifting journey.

Gender

To make the standards relevant and accurate, results are divided into male and female categories, further segmented by bodyweight.
