Why Do We Need a Strength Index?
Typical strength standard tables tell you how strong your squat or bench press is in isolation, but they fail to give you a complete picture of your body's overall strength balance. A lifter with an Elite bench press but a Beginner squat is not an Elite lifter overall — they are highly unbalanced.
The **Strength Index (SI)** solves this. It averages your percentile rankings across entered lifts, applying a weighted model that corresponds to muscle mass distribution. This provides a single rating — akin to a credit score or IQ score for strength — that reflects your overall development.
Lifting Pattern Weightings
To calculate a valid composite index, each exercise is weighted according to its physiological contribution to overall body strength:
- Squat (30%): Evaluates lower-body anterior chain, knee extension, and core bracing.
- Deadlift (30%): Evaluates posterior chain, hip extension, grip, and upper back stability.
- Bench Press (20%): Evaluates horizontal upper-body pressing (pectoralis, anterior deltoids, triceps).
- Overhead Press (10%): Evaluates vertical pressing, shoulder girdle strength, and overhead stability.
- Pull-Up (10%): Evaluates upper-body pulling, lats, upper back, and grip.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to enter all 5 lifts?
No. The index uses a coverage-weighted composite score. It computes the weighted average of the lifts you *do* enter. You will not be penalized for omitting lifts, but entering all 5 yields the most precise, complete rating.
How does the age adjustment work?
Strength naturally declines as we age, beginning around age 40. If you enter your age, we apply a conservative masters coefficient (+0.3% per year from 41–59, and +0.5% per year from 60+) to adjust your raw score, recognizing the physiological difference in maintaining strength at older ages.
