Wilks & Sinclair Score Calculator
Compare strength across weight classes. Wilks for powerlifting (squat, bench, deadlift total), Sinclair for Olympic weightlifting (snatch + clean & jerk).
Calculate Your Score
Enter your powerlifting total (squat + bench press + deadlift)
What This Means
The Wilks coefficient allows you to compare strength across different body weights. A higher score indicates greater relative strength. Elite powerlifters typically score 400+.
Scientific Basis
Developed by Robert Wilks to compare powerlifting totals across weight classes. Uses a polynomial equation based on body weight to calculate a coefficient. The formula is: Score = (Total × 500) / Coefficient
The coefficient varies by sex and body weight, accounting for the non-linear relationship between body weight and strength potential.
