Weighted Plank Hold vs Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Strength Standards
Compare your weighted plank hold and weighted reverse plank hold against strength standards for your sex, age range, and bodyweight. Enter one result for each exercise to see your strength levels, next targets, and priority.
Enter the external load and strict hold time in seconds for each exercise. Pounds and kilograms can be mixed. For the first exercise, shoulders, hips, knees, and ankles remain aligned; elbows/forearms and toes stay in position; load remains secure without partner support; hips do not sag or pike. For the second exercise, maintain locked elbows, straight knees, full hip extension, neutral head/trunk, fixed hands/heels, and stable vest. Repetitions are never converted into weight. Each exercise keeps its own measurement type. Age range is saved for anonymous usage reports and does not change the standards.
Weighted Plank Hold vs Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Strength Standards by Bodyweight
The tables list the minimum result each exercise needs for Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, and Elite. Weight targets appear in pounds and kilograms; repetition and time targets remain in their original measurement and include the applicable age ranges.
Choose the men’s or women’s table and locate your bodyweight. Because weight, repetitions, and seconds measure different performances, the calculator rates them separately instead of converting one into another.
Men’s Weighted Plank Hold vs Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Standards
How to read the table: Each table entry lists the minimum result for both exercises. Weight-based targets show pounds and kilograms; direct-performance targets show strict repetitions or seconds for each age range. Scroll horizontally on smaller screens.

How Your Weighted Plank Hold vs Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Result Is Calculated
The two exercises can use different measurements. The calculator rates each result against the standards for that exercise first, then compares the resulting strength levels and progress toward the next level. It never invents a reps-to-weight conversion.
2. Rate the Weighted Plank Hold result
The exercise-specific model supplies sex-specific weighted-hold score thresholds; its compute implementation applies the approved age adjustment before assigning a tier. The calculator uses external added load divided by bodyweight and normalized to the exercise-specific 60-second hold with the defined load-duration curve and preserves both external load and hold time.
3. Rate the Weighted Reverse Plank Hold result
The exercise-specific model supplies sex-specific weighted-hold score thresholds; its compute implementation applies the approved age adjustment before assigning a tier. The calculator uses external added load divided by bodyweight and normalized to the exercise-specific 60-second hold with the defined load-duration curve and preserves both external load and hold time.
4. Compare strength level and progress
The lower strength level is the priority. When both exercises reach the same level, a priority appears only when one is at least 10 points farther from its next target. Otherwise, the result is Balanced. Age range is recorded anonymously and does not change either standard.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Rate the weighted plank hold weighted hold | Preserve both external load and hold time, then use the exercise-specific normalized weighted-hold score. Measurement: estimated one-rep max. |
| Rate the weighted reverse plank hold weighted hold | Preserve both external load and hold time, then use the exercise-specific normalized weighted-hold score. Measurement: estimated one-rep max. |
| Compare levels | Use each exercise’s own level and next target; do not compare or divide results that use different measurements. |
How Men’s Weighted Plank Hold and Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Standards Differ
What the men’s standards show:
Weighted Plank Hold Elite targets0.5× BW score → 0.325× BW score
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 lb bodyweight.
Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Elite targets0.4× BW score → 0.26× BW score
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 lb bodyweight.
Comparison boundaryStrength level first
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s strength tier and progress within that tier.
The exact table above is the correct way to inspect direct or unlike measurements. A pounds-difference chart would be invalid because repetitions, seconds, and estimated weight do not share a unit.
How Women’s Weighted Plank Hold and Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Standards Differ
What the women’s standards show:
Weighted Plank Hold Elite targets0.4× BW score → 0.26× BW score
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 lb bodyweight.
Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Elite targets0.32× BW score → 0.208× BW score
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 lb bodyweight.
Comparison boundaryStrength level first
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s strength tier and progress within that tier.
Use the calculator to apply the correct age range and exact bodyweight before comparing the two strength levels.
Weighted Plank Hold and Weighted Reverse Plank Hold Exercises Used by This Calculator
For a useful comparison, perform a strict weighted plank hold and a strict weighted reverse plank hold using the setup and load rules below. Use strict, repeatable Weighted Plank Hold and Weighted Reverse Plank Hold tests that follow each exercise’s setup, range of motion, equipment, and load rules. Do not mix variations, assistance, partial range, momentum, or different load conventions.
Use the Weighted Plank Hold setup and load convention
Score is external added load divided by bodyweight, adjusted to the 60-second reference hold using the defined load-duration curve. Bodyweight is not added into the scored load for this tool. The curve balances load and hold time so very light long holds and very heavy short holds are not automatically equal. Shoulders, hips, knees, and ankles remain aligned; elbows/forearms and toes stay in position; load remains secure without partner support; hips do not sag or pike. Enter only valid externally loaded timed holds for this exercise; unloaded holds, assisted holds, and adjacent movement substitutions are outside this calculator.
Use the Weighted Reverse Plank Hold setup and load convention
Score is external added load divided by bodyweight, adjusted to the 60-second reference hold using the defined load-duration curve. Bodyweight is not added into the scored load for this tool. The curve balances load and hold time so very light long holds and very heavy short holds are not automatically equal. Maintain locked elbows, straight knees, full hip extension, neutral head/trunk, fixed hands/heels, and stable vest. Enter only valid externally loaded timed holds for this exercise; unloaded holds, assisted holds, and adjacent movement substitutions are outside this calculator.
