Wilks coefficient

The coefficient calculated using the Wilks formula is used to compare the results of athletes of different weights. The Wilks coefficient reflects the relationship between the athlete's own mass (with an accuracy of up to 0.1 kg) and the weight lifted. To determine the absolute result, it is necessary to multiply the total powerlifting sum by the Wilks coefficient. An athlete with a greater absolute coefficient has an advantage.
