AUSBB Wilks Total Record Board - Page 3 - Ausbb

Wilks score is NOT lift dependant, it simply spits out a score by combining a lifters bodyweight and total weight lifted. Sinclair does the same thing.

Its to work out best lifter at a comp, the lifts are totally irrelevant, hence why the calculator doesnt ask for lifts, just total and bodyweight, the ONLY relevant things.

Strong is strong.

Nice Wilks Nick.......should be soooooooo much better....January.

Yeah shoulda, woulda, coulda. I've got no chance of taking out the wilks anyway, not with kelly, michael and chris hanging around. I should do some damage on the total though.

In any case they can keep the 5 lift comp. I'm going to focus on taking out the strongman.

I do not think those lifts were anything to be ashamed of...

You mean you don't OHP and clean very much?

Neither do I, but I don't give sht to those who do. Play nice. A lot of people have built some very good strength, we should respect that achievement and their efforts.

for anyone interested, heres a nice article on how the wilks score is actually calculated: More on the Wilks Formula or Wilks Coefficients

Great link James.

I'm a number cruncher nerd so that was very interesting to me.

Looks like they collected some data (doesn't say how much though - usually the more data the better), and fit a curve to it. The obvious questions that I have are: how well does the curve fit (what are the residuals left over), and why did they choose that particular function? Eh... I think I'm thinking too deeply
