Tools
Quick tools
Score yourself, estimate your max, load the bar and time your tests, a minute each. US units first, kilograms on a switch.
How strong am I?
Your tests against your age and sex, each with its source, your weak link and a date to test again.
Floor rise score
Sit down on the floor and stand back up. Count the touches for your score out of 10.
One-rep max from a set
Any set of 1 to 12 reps in, your max out as a range across seven formulas.
How much is enough?
Your lifting and walking minutes against 147,374 US adults.
Plates and warm-ups
The plates for each side of the bar, and the warm-up sets to get there.
Test timer
Prop up your phone. It says the rules aloud and times the hang, plank, one-foot balance and chair stand.
What should my strength plan be?
The quiz: your goal, days and equipment in, your own week of lifting out, with the tests as an option.
Run the strength tests in Gyroscope (push-ups, pull-ups, plank, squat, dead hang, floor rise and one-leg balance), most about a minute and each scored 0 to 100 against your peers, and retest when a result turns yellow after two months. Log every set as you lift, with weight, reps and reps in reserve, and each lift builds its own estimated one-rep max trend. Open Gyroscope
