How it works
Ratio = weight lifted ÷ body weight
Relative strength compares your lift to your body weight, so lifters of different sizes can be measured fairly. A 1.0 ratio means lifting your own body weight.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good ratio?
It depends on the lift; bodyweight (1.0) on the squat or bench is a common milestone.
Why measure relative strength?
It levels the field across body sizes better than the raw weight lifted.
