How it works
Powerlifting class and performance context
Enter your bodyweight, competition standard, and best squat, bench, and deadlift. Liftally shows your weight class, SBD total, DOTS score, and nearby class context using historical OpenPowerlifting data when available. These results are for training and meet-planning context, not an official ranking.
What does Weight Class Explorer do?
Weight Class Explorer uses your entered bodyweight, competition standard, and lifts to show powerlifting class context, SBD total, DOTS, and historical comparison context.
What does nearby weight class comparison mean?
Your bodyweight is mapped to the selected federation-style standard. Nearby weight class comparison shows how the same entered lifts are contextualized around adjacent class boundaries.
What is included in SBD total?
SBD total is the sum of your best squat, bench press, and deadlift. Enter all three lifts for the most complete total and DOTS context.
What does the DOTS score mean in this tool?
The DOTS score uses bodyweight and SBD total to provide a bodyweight-adjusted performance context. Liftally shows it alongside available historical context.
What does OpenPowerlifting percentile mean?
An OpenPowerlifting percentile indicates where an entered result falls within matching historical data available to this tool. Data coverage can vary by class and filter combination.
How are historical results organized?
Your best squat, bench press, and deadlift are compared with the best valid results retained for each approximate historical lifter within the same benchmark group and recent ten-year period. Groups are separated by competition standard, sex, weight class, testing status, Raw equipment, and SBD event. Historical lifter identity is approximated using name and sex, and the three lift samples may include different historical entries.
Where does the benchmark data come from?
The benchmark data comes from OpenPowerlifting’s May 2026 public dataset. Liftally uses filtered historical raw SBD results to estimate weight class, DOTS, and percentile context. The results are for training and meet-planning reference only, not official rankings.
What is Scenario Lab?
Scenario Lab lets you preview how selected bodyweight or lift changes affect the tool's displayed class, total, DOTS, and percentile context.
Does the tool predict meet placing?
No. The tool provides historical and class context only; it does not predict meet placing, determine whether you should compete, or recommend bodyweight changes.
