About

Barbell Genie

Barbell Genie works out what to load using the plates your gym actually has, not an imaginary complete set. MIXED KILOGRAM AND POUND PLATES A 20 kg bar with 45 lb plates is normal in a CrossFit gym and awkward to do in your head. Enter both units, get one correct total, and read it in whichever unit you think in. THE NEAREST WEIGHT YOU CAN ACTUALLY BUILD Ask for 205 lb and, if nothing lands on it, you get the closest load under and over, how far each one misses, and which plates would close the gap. Not a wrong answer presented confidently. YOUR GYM, ENTERED ONCE Plates and bars you own, counted as individual plates rather than pairs. Add anything off the standard list, including custom plates and custom bars. Keep a separate inventory for every gym you train at. BUILD A BAR BY HAND Tap or drag plates onto the bar and watch the total update. Take one off, clear it, or hand control back to the calculator. WORKS ENTIRELY ON YOUR DEVICE No account. No sign-in. No network. It works in a basement with no reception because it never needed a connection. Nothing about your training leaves your phone, and nothing can. Built by Black Dragon Lab.
