Score your squat, bench and deadlift total against your bodyweight, in DOTS and Wilks.
DOTS lets two lifters at different bodyweights compare fairly. It weighs your total against a curve built from thousands of competition results, so a lighter lifter with a smaller total can still out score a heavier one. It is the coefficient most federations now use in place of the older Wilks formula, and this tool shows both.
Enter your competition total, or your best gym singles added together, along with your bodyweight. You get your DOTS score and your Wilks score side by side. As a rough guide, a DOTS around three hundred is a solid intermediate, four hundred is advanced and five hundred is elite territory.
Wilks came first and ruled for two decades. DOTS was fitted to newer data and behaves better at the very light and very heavy ends of the scale, which is why it has become the standard. If your federation still ranks on Wilks, use that number, otherwise lead with DOTS.
As a rough guide, around three hundred is a strong intermediate, four hundred is advanced and five hundred is elite. Scores depend on sex and are calibrated so lifters of any bodyweight can compare.
Both adjust your total for bodyweight so lifters can be ranked fairly. DOTS was fitted to newer data and behaves better at the extremes, so most federations have moved to it, but Wilks is still used by some.
Add your best squat, bench press and deadlift. Use competition bests, or your best gym singles if you have not competed, then enter that total here with your bodyweight.
