Compare powerlifting strength fairly across body weights. Enter your bodyweight and total lifted to get your Wilks score and coefficient.
The Wilks coefficient lets you compare powerlifting totals across different body weights. A 60 kg lifter and a 100 kg lifter can't be compared on raw total alone — the heavier lifter has an advantage. The Wilks formula multiplies your total by a coefficient based on bodyweight to produce a single, comparable score.
The Wilks coefficient comes from a fifth-order polynomial of your bodyweight in kilograms, with separate constants for men and women. Your Wilks score is that coefficient multiplied by your total lifted in kilograms. Higher is better, and the formula is tuned so lifters of any size can compete on roughly even terms.
As a rough guide, a Wilks around 200 is a solid novice, 300 is intermediate, 400 is advanced, and 500+ is elite or competitive national level. Women's and men's scores use different constants but land on a similar scale, so the benchmarks apply broadly.
The original Wilks formula (used here) remains the most widely recognized. Newer systems like Wilks2 and IPF GL Points have been introduced to address perceived biases, but Wilks is still the standard most lifters know. You can enter a full three-lift total or a single lift to score an individual movement.
Tip: Use the same unit consistently and enter your competition total (squat + bench + deadlift) for a true powerlifting Wilks. To score just one lift, enter that lift's weight as the total.
