Best app ever

I’ve been powerlifting for 2.5 years this app has saved my life not even kidding. I’ve used it for meets, for PR attempts, everything. I can’t believe it only has 250 reviews, I hi honestly think everyone (not only powerlifters) should use it.

Best value and features

I never write reviews but I had to for this one. I’ve tried many different calculators for the gym because my brain no work so good. This had the most features for the value. Even the free part is great. No subscriptions!

Cleanest plate loading app

I really love the warmup suggestions with added plate loading images. Brain - off. Ability to share loaded bar images with both kilo and pound totals is a must.

Amazing App

This app is great for gym! Takes away a lot of guess when just getting started and even if regular gym goer. Very easy to use and developer did a great job with making everything simple to understand and has links to anything and everything you could ask when comes to powerlifting, weight tracking, etc! Def worth the download and have it on my main screen for easy access and immediate logging of routines and PR achievements!!

Perfect gym companion

A lot of times at the gym I’m brain dead and can’t even do simple math. Even though I don’t lift that much and usually it’s just one plate on each side, this still saves me the trouble of doing math.

GOATED CALCULATOR

Brain turns off when I'm in the gym with this makes kg way easier to navigate the built in 1rm estimators is absolute cinema

Great

Perfect for my gym workouts

SIMPLE LOADING

I like it when apps just focus on one thing. I just need an app to load the freaking bar, especially when it’s in kilos! I don’t need logging or training programs and the best part, there is no subscription!! The features are things I never knew I needed, sharing the barbell on my ig posts, calculating DOTS. Great, keep up the good work

Кляс

Мне очень понравилось приложение! я щадолпблся все это по отдельности гуглить, нейросетить и ТД. А ЗДЕСЬ СОБРАНО ВСЕ, что нужно! жалко , что в Росси нельзя оплатить и получить вкладку «мои рекорды» , но даже и без этого это приложение очень лютое

Updated re: App Keeps Crashing

Updated response: They updated the app and now it’s working like a charm! Original response: The app is great and extremely helpful. However, recently it’s been crashing every single time I open it up and I’ve had to delete the app and redownload each time I want to input weights. Once that can be fixed this app gets 5 stars again.

Response from developer

Hey! I’m sorry to hear this, can you provide more details and some it over dongledan@yahoo.com or @barisloadedapp on ig?

Bar is really loaded

I skip bench day but with this app I get to add 3 red baddies and pretend I did my top single for the day #povertybenchboi

All jokes aside, this calculator is simple to use. There are a lot of features available & the app is always being updated with improvements. Most calculators are filled with ads & pop up but not this one. The developer is always available to answer any questions & actually takes feedback into consideration.

Love the Records Update

The one thing on my wish list for this app was the ability to record records thanks for adding it. Overall the app is great and super helpful while working out.

Love it until

Revised... Deleted and reinstalled. Everything works fine now. Absolutely love this app. Unfortunately the current update does not work at all. Hope it gets fixed. This app is quite useful when it's working.

One of the best apps for powerlifters

Call it lazy. I call it safe. Genuinely such a good app to use to plate up the bar. Find out what to use for warm ups and help make use of what you do have.

Amazing bruh!

Awesome can never go back to using the stupid google calculator or remembering the plates saves so much time and is easy to use love it

5kg glitch!

I use this app a lot and have for a couple years now. it’s typically great, however over the past year or so myself and many others have run into a 5kg glitch in the “reverse” section where it says the weight on the bar is 5kg lower than what it actually is (i.e. red red yellow on the bar is actually 150kg/331lb but the app is saying it’s 145kg/319lb). no, there was not a setting changed to a different barbell weight or added comp collars or anything, the app randomly glitches and shows the incorrect numerical value for the given kg plates. I still use the app, and it is great 95% of the time, just make sure you always double check, especially if it’s a weight range you’re unfamiliar with.

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. To be clear, this is just in the “Reverse” tab right? I personally haven’t ran into this since 2.6.1, so please be patient for this a resolution for this bug. I have some free time in a couple of weeks and will try to get a fix in by then.

Glitch

My self and several people I know have been getting missloaded plates/ weight over the last few weeks. Like we’ll input 15k and 1.5k on a 20bar and sometimes it’ll give 47.5 and other times 52.5. I have screenshots if any developer wants to see
