PUMPZZ turns your lifting into one number — a Strength Score from 0 to 999 — and tells you exactly what to lift today. Exact weight. Exact reps. Log the set, and the next target is already picked. No spreadsheet math. No "add weight or add reps?" debate between sets. You show up, hit the targets, and watch the number climb from Foundation to Elite. PHYSIQUE SCORE Your physique gets a number too. Take one photo and get a 0–999 Physique Score: every visible muscle group graded, with notes pinned right on your photo showing what's developed, what's lagging, and what to train to fix it. Add back and side poses for the full analysis, rescan later, and watch the score move. Photos are stored only on your device — scans are processed securely and never saved on our servers. PROGRAM LIBRARY Start a proven program in two taps: Wendler 5/3/1, nSuns, GZCLP, 5x5, Reddit PPL, PHUL, PHAT-style, upper/lower, full body, and more. Percentage-based programs set up your training maxes for you and handle week-to-week progression automatically — no percentage math between sets. WHY LIFTERS USE PUMPZZ Know your next weight and rep target before every set Adapt when the gym is busy: swap days, replace exercises, edit sets and reps — for today or for every week Log real strength training: warmups, working sets, AMRAPs, drop sets, failure sets, RPE, RIR, and rest times Import your own program from text, XLSX, or CSV instead of rebuilding it by hand Load barbells faster with the plate calculator in kg or lbs Search 873 exercises with images, muscle filters, and offline access See PRs, e1RM trends, volume, Workout Rewind, and What-If Projections BUILT FOR THE GYM PUMPZZ works offline and does not require an account.

Is that a good lift? Benchmark answers the only question that matters when you hit a number: where does it actually place you? Enter a lift. Get a percentile against real, judged, competition data. Watch that placement move over time. This is not a workout logger. There is no exercise library, no rest timer, no programme builder. It does one thing. WHAT YOU GET • Percentile ranking for bench, squat and deadlift • Your placement against 1.8 million judged competition lifts • Compare within your age group — IPF divisions from 13–18 to 70+ • Targets: the weight that reaches the 50th, 75th, 90th or 95th percentile at your bodyweight • Log a set of up to 10 reps and get an estimated one-rep max, labelled as one • Tier labels from Untrained through Elite • Percentile drift — your placement over time, not just your PRs • Composite ranking across your three-lift total • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Share cards, generated on your device • iPhone and iPad, with optional iCloud sync between them BUILT ON REAL DATA Comparison curves are derived from OpenPowerlifting, an open public-domain database of sanctioned meet results. Our curves reproduce independently published, peer-reviewed norms to within 3%. We show you the sample size behind every curve. We tell you when a number is less reliable. PRIVACY, PROPERLY • No account. Nothing to sign in to. • Your lifts, bodyweight and history stay on your device — or, only if you turn on iCloud sync, in your own private iCloud, which we can't see. • Comparison data ships inside the app — the percentile is computed offline. • No Apple Health access. • Anonymous usage analytics, which you can switch off in Settings. PRICING Bench press is free forever — not a trial, and not limited. Check it as often as you like and you'll never be asked for anything. Squat, deadlift, full history, percentile drift and widgets are $2.99 a month, or $24.99 a year with the first week free. Cancel any time. A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS Meet data is a selective population — everyone in it chose to compete. Your percentile against it will read lower than you expect. That's the honest reading, and we'd rather show it than flatter you. Benchmark is a comparison tool, not a health assessment. It doesn't tell you what to train or what's safe for you to attempt.
