Only one bar

The app is visually pleasing, but there is only bar; no list of preset bars to choose from. I’d gladly give 5 stars if the app had this feature.

Very useful timesaver.

Very useful

No cluttered interface. Very useful and quick. Good to convert pounds to kilos.

Awesome Again

Last update fixed my crash problem. Thanks. This is a must have app for any ironhead. Great on DL days.

More Flexible than Previous Versions

Selecting the "i" button in the bottom right hand corner of the screen brings up the screen with all the configurable options.
I like the fact that that I can show loads for a 55 pound bar, as well as a 45 pound bar. I also like that I can toggle on/off the use of 100 pound plates, 35 pound plates and 5 pound collars. Makes the app useful in the gym and at a meet.

This app runs great on my iPhone 4 and iPhone 3G both running iOS 4. Unfortunately, it's crashing on my first generation iPhone running iOS 3.1.3 whenever I hit the "i" button to bring up the options screen. Hopefully, the soon to be released v1.4.1 will fix the problem.

Pretty cool, if you've got the plates

Pretty cool app!
It would be nice if you could set up how many of each plate you have and have it figure out what to use. For instance, for 445#, it says 4x45 + 2x10 on each end of the bar. At our garage gym, we don't have 8 45# plates, so we use 35, 15, whatever to make up the weight.
Keep up the good work!

Cant change bar weight Bar weight

Restricted to 45lb bar instead of the 55 and 60 lb bars that are standard at most gyms and meets outside ipf

Good App - Needs One Thing

As a powerlifting coach, this app is invaluable when I am double checking the loading of the bar for my athletes. It also helps me in my own workouts when I am unsure about an odd weight that needs to be loaded. The interface is clean and easy to use. The only thing keeping me from giving it 5 stars is that I wish it had a feature to change the weight of the bar. In training we use bars of many different weights, and I would like the option to be able to set the weight of the bar.

Great - Just needs one more thing...

See my review of version 1.1. Very cool! Just add one thing - 35 pound plate support. That would replicate most US gyms and loading schemes in pound competitions, and eliminate occasionally calling for two of the same plates. When using metric loads, this app is all the way there.

The sound is nice, too!

Decent app

BarzLoaded is a great app for lifters that don't like waiting and counting how much weight to put on the bar. It's original and to the point.

I have recommendation though. Could the developers add an option to use 35 lbs weights too? It would make it a little bit easier.

Still overall, I suggest this app for any weightlifter, it's a must have an easy way to support the developer.
