How this is computed

vs general population is not shown: no credible general-population one-rep-max norms exist for this lift, only lifter-population data. vs lifters who track uses Strength Level community standards (one-rep-max thresholds by sex and bodyweight, with their age adjustment), a self-selected crowd of people who log their training, which is why its median sits well above the general population's. Weights are one-rep maxes or estimated one-rep maxes (Epley, from any set of one to ten reps).
