Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Strength Standards Calculator
Under strict Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull strength standards, Novice starts around 0.7x bodyweight for men and 0.5x for women, while Elite starts around 2.05x for men and 1.6x for women using the normalized 60-second weighted-hold score.
Enter your sex, bodyweight, age, added load, and hold time to see whether your Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull is Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite for your bodyweight and age.
The calculator converts added load and hold time into an equivalent added-load-to-bodyweight ratio at 60 seconds, then compares that score with the Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull standards for your sex, bodyweight, and age. This keeps the result focused on weighted isometric strength instead of reps, estimated 1RM, or unloaded hold time.
Understanding Your Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Score
Your score shows how strong your Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull was for your bodyweight. It considers both the weight you added and how long you held the position.
A higher score means you held more weight, held the position longer, or did both. For example, adding weight can improve your score even if the hold is shorter, while holding the same weight longer can also improve it.
Your result is classified as Beginner, Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite. Use that level to understand your current performance, then use the calculator’s next target to plan what to improve.
Only compare attempts performed with the same setup, body position, load placement, side-handling rule, and stop rules. Otherwise, a higher score may reflect an easier setup rather than improved strength.
Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Strength Standards
The tables below show the added weight needed to reach each Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull strength level when the hold lasts 60 seconds.
Find the row closest to your bodyweight, then compare your added weight with the Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, Elite, and Stretch targets. If your hold lasted more or less than 60 seconds, use the calculator because hold time changes the result.
These are Endura’s standards for comparing consistent Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull attempts. They are not population averages.
How Endura set these standards: We anchored the test at a strict 60-second Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull, calibrated added-weight-to-bodyweight targets to balance load and hold time, and checked the tiers against the reviewed movement anchors for this exercise. These are Endura benchmarks, not population percentiles.

How the Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Calculator Works
The calculator first compares the weight you added with your bodyweight. It then adjusts the result based on how long you held the Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull. Pounds and kilograms are converted automatically, so you can use either unit.
For example, a 180 lb person holding 225 lb for 60 seconds scores 1.25x bodyweight. Holding the same weight longer raises the score, while holding it for less time lowers the score. Extra time can improve the score for up to 120 seconds; holding longer than that does not add more credit.
Your age and sex determine which strength standards your score is compared with. They do not change the score produced by the attempt itself.
The calculator also shows how much added weight you would need to reach the next strength level at the same hold time you entered. This gives you a practical target without requiring every test to last exactly 60 seconds.
Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Load and Hold-Time Comparisons
Added weight and hold time both affect your Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull score. These examples show how different attempts compare for a 180-pound person.
| Added weight | Hold time | Added-load ratio | Normalized score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 225 lb | 60 sec | 1.25x | 1.25x |
| 315 lb | 30 sec | 1.75x | 1.041x |
| 110 lb | 120 sec | 0.611x | 1.222x |
A heavier attempt does not necessarily produce a higher score if it is held for much less time. Use the calculator to compare attempts using your own bodyweight and exact hold time.
Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Milestones and Next Targets
Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull progress can come from adding weight, holding the position longer, or improving both. These changes do not affect your score equally. A shorter hold requires more added weight to reach the same strength level, while a longer hold requires less weight because the calculator gives credit for the additional time.
For example, a 180 lb man reaches the Intermediate benchmark with 207 lb for 60 seconds. He would need about 348 lb for a 30-second hold, or 138 lb for a 90-second hold, to reach the same level. Use the table for reference, then enter your own bodyweight, sex, age, and hold time into the calculator for your exact next target.
| Example user | Hold time | Novice | Intermediate | Advanced | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 180 lb man | 30 sec | 212 lb | 348 lb | 484.5 lb | 620.5 lb |
| 180 lb man | 60 sec | 126 lb | 207 lb | 288 lb | 369 lb |
| 180 lb man | 90 sec | 84 lb | 138 lb | 192 lb | 246 lb |
| 140 lb woman | 30 sec | 117.5 lb | 200 lb | 294.5 lb | 376.5 lb |
| 140 lb woman | 60 sec | 70 lb | 119 lb | 175 lb | 224 lb |
| 140 lb woman | 90 sec | 46.5 lb | 79.5 lb | 116.5 lb | 149.5 lb |
Isometric Hex Bar Deadlift Pull Testing Rules
User stands inside the hex bar, reaches the approved fixed pull height, stabilizes the bar motionless without rack support, and starts timing once position and load are controlled. During the attempt, bar height, neutral grip, stance, trunk position, shoulder control, and hip/knee angle remain consistent for the full entered duration.
Timing stops when the bar drops, rests on blocks or pins, rises into a shrug or lockout variant, grip fails, stance changes materially, or the user ends the hold. Entered load is total hex-bar or trap-bar load held in the pull position, including bar and plates; it is external load only and does not include bodyweight. Bilateral hex-bar hold; no side selector or summed-side behavior applies.
| Attempt rule | Counts? |
|---|---|
| Bar height, neutral grip, stance, trunk position, shoulder control, and hip/knee angle remain consistent for the full entered duration. | Yes |
| Bilateral hex-bar hold; no side selector or summed-side behavior applies. | Yes |
| Max-force pulls against immovable pins, force-plate pulls, high-handle rep sets, trap-bar shrugs, resting on supports, straight-bar substitutions, carry attempts, and unloaded holds do not count. | No |
| The recorded time continues after a stop condition occurs: the bar drops, rests on blocks or pins, rises into a shrug or lockout variant, grip fails, stance changes materially, or the user ends the hold | No |
