Heavy Loads

A barbell plate calculator for iPhone and iPad. Enter a weight and Heavy Loads shows you exactly which plates go on each side, using the plates you actually own.

Three ways to load the bar

• TargetType any weight on the keypad, or fine-tune with quick −5, −2.5, +2.5 and +5 buttons (1.25 and 2.5 kg steps in kilos).
• PercentSet your one-rep max and pick a percentage from 50% to 95%, or adjust 1% at a time.
• PlatesLoad plates yourself and see what the bar weighs. Every plate you own is in one list, showing how many are on each side.

What it does

• Uses the plates you ownSet up your plate inventory, and Heavy Loads finds the closest load to your target without going over, even when the obvious heaviest-plate-first approach can't get there.
• Pounds and kilos togetherThe “On the bar” readout shows the loaded weight in both units. When your target can't be matched exactly, you'll see how far off you are.
• Your bars, your collarsChoose from standard bars or add your own with custom weights and colors. Olympic bars use their true kilo weights, and collar weights are counted accurately.
• Built for iPad tooA bigger barbell, controls that fill the screen, and a landscape layout with the bar on the left and your controls on the right.
• Private by designNo accounts, no ads, no tracking. Nothing you enter leaves your device.

Made for powerlifters, Olympic weightlifters, CrossFit athletes, and coaches. For iPhone and iPad.
