Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength Standards Calculator
Under strict Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly strength standards, Novice starts around 0.13x bodyweight for men and 0.08x for women, while Elite starts around 0.45x for men and 0.31x for women.
Enter your bodyweight, weight lifted, and reps to estimate your 1RM and see whether your Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly is Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite for your bodyweight.
The calculator converts your set into an estimated 1RM-to-bodyweight ratio, then compares that ratio with the Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly standards for your sex. This keeps the result focused on relative strength instead of only the absolute weight lifted.
Understanding Your Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength Score
Your Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly result compares your estimated one-rep max with strength targets adjusted for your sex and exact bodyweight. The result is still specific to Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly; it should not be treated as a rating for a nearby exercise.
A heavier lifter receives higher target loads, but those targets do not rise pound-for-pound with bodyweight. This is why the calculator uses your exact bodyweight instead of assigning every lifter’s tier from one fixed bodyweight ratio.
Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength Standards
Use the men’s or women’s table and find the row closest to your bodyweight for a quick reference. For an exact result, enter your bodyweight, weight lifted, and reps into the calculator. It will estimate your one-rep max, identify your strength level, and show the next target to pursue.
Enter the weight of one matched dumbbell and count only 1–15 controlled reps with the chest held against the same incline bench, a stable softly bent elbow, a clear reverse-fly arc, and a controlled return. Do not enter combined-pair weight, a standing or bent-over fly, a row, shrug, cable or machine repetition, pad bounce, loss of chest contact, shortened range, or unequal paths.
Endura built these standards from reviewed Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly targets and adjusts them for different bodyweights. They are practical benchmarks for this exact test—not population averages or standards for an unsupported, cable, machine, or row variation.

How the Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Calculator Works
Enter your sex, bodyweight, weight lifted, and reps. The calculator estimates your one-rep max from the set, then compares that estimate with the Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly targets for your exact bodyweight. A one-rep entry uses the entered weight directly.
The bodyweight adjustment starts with reviewed targets for a 190 lb man and a 150 lb woman. For example, the men’s Advanced target is 52 lb at 150 lb bodyweight, 61 lb at 190 lb, and 69 lb at 230 lb. That is why the calculator needs your exact bodyweight instead of using one fixed bodyweight ratio for everyone.
Elite Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength Levels
Elite Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly strength means reaching the Elite target for your sex and exact bodyweight while following the calculator’s accepted testing rules. The target increases as bodyweight increases, but not pound-for-pound, so use the calculator for your exact Elite and Stretch targets.
| Sex | Bodyweight | Elite begins | Stretch begins |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men | 150 lb | 73 lb | 89 lb |
| Men | 190 lb | 85 lb | 104 lb |
| Men | 230 lb | 97 lb | 118 lb |
| Women | 120 lb | 41 lb | 50 lb |
| Women | 150 lb | 47 lb | 58 lb |
| Women | 180 lb | 53 lb | 65 lb |
Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength Compared to Other Lifts
Use these comparisons to see how your Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly strength carries over when the implement, starting position, or finish changes. Test each movement under its own rules so every result reflects the exercise you actually performed.
Compare the strength levels each calculator gives you instead of assuming the same weight means the same thing in different exercises. A meaningful gap can point you toward the part of the movement worth working on next.
| Compare with | What the comparison can show | How the test differs |
|---|---|---|
| Dumbbell Reverse Fly | Compare the same broad free-weight rear-delt pattern while keeping the fixed incline chest support explicit here. | Uses an unsupported reverse-fly setup, so it does not require continuous chest contact with the same incline bench. |
| Cable Reverse Fly | Contrast the current free-weight rear-delt test with cable resistance through the arc. | Uses cable resistance rather than matched dumbbells and does not share this per-dumbbell, fixed-incline test. |
| Machine Reverse Fly | Compare a guided rear-delt path with the free-weight control required here. | Uses a machine path and stack convention rather than matched dumbbells moved freely from an incline bench. |
| Dumbbell Lateral Raise | Separate nearby strict dumbbell shoulder-isolation strength from rear-delt strength. | Raises through a lateral-delt path rather than the supported reverse-fly arc used for this result. |
| Chest-Supported Dumbbell Row | Compare shared bench support while preserving the difference between a rear-delt fly and a row. | Uses rowing elbow drive and back strength rather than a long-lever reverse-fly path with stable elbow angle. |
Milestones in Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly Strength
Your next Chest-Supported Incline Dumbbell Reverse Fly milestone is the next strength level above your current result. Enter your sex, bodyweight, weight per dumbbell, and valid chest-supported incline dumbbell reverse fly reps to see exactly how much estimated one-rep-max strength separates you from that level.
Use that gap as a concrete training target. Because your score is based on estimated one-rep-max strength, you can close it by lifting a heavier dumbbell, completing more strict reps at the same weight, or improving both. Recalculate after a strong set to see whether you reached the next level and, if not, exactly how much remains.
| Group | Reference bodyweight | Novice to Intermediate | Intermediate to Advanced | Advanced to Elite | Elite to Stretch |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Men | 190 lb | +15 lb | +21 lb | +24 lb | +19 lb |
| Women | 150 lb | +9 lb | +12 lb | +14 lb | +11 lb |
