How Your Close Grip Push Ups vs Wide Grip Lat Pulldown 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.
1. Estimate the weight-based result
For Wide Grip Lat Pulldown, one rep uses the weight entered. For 2–12 reps, the calculator runs both estimates and keeps the lower result.
- Epley: weight × (1 + reps ÷ 30)
- Brzycki: weight × 36 ÷ (37 − reps)
A published back-squat study supports estimated-max prediction under its study conditions. It does not independently validate every exercise or population used by this comparison.
2. Rate the Close Grip Push Ups result
The canonical tool supplies sex-, bodyweight-band-, and age-specific repetition thresholds plus a stretch target. The calculator uses strict continuous bodyweight repetitions and does not convert the repetitions into an estimated weight.
3. Rate the Wide Grip Lat Pulldown result
The standards use the sex-specific targets from the individual Wide Grip Lat Pulldown tool. The target adjusts to bodyweight using reference target × (user bodyweight ÷ reference bodyweight) to the two-thirds power.
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 changes only the exercise whose standards include age; it remains an analytics field for the other exercise.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Rate the close grip push ups set | Compare strict repetitions with the applicable canonical thresholds without an estimated-max conversion. Measurement: Strict continuous Close Grip Push Ups reps. |
| Rate the wide grip lat pulldown | Adjust wide grip lat pulldown targets to exact bodyweight with the two-thirds rule. 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 Close Grip Push Ups and Wide Grip Lat Pulldown Standards Differ
What the men’s standards show:
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 lb bodyweight.
Elite weight targets from 120 to 300 lb bodyweight.
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s canonical 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 Close Grip Push Ups and Wide Grip Lat Pulldown Standards Differ
What the women’s standards show:
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 lb bodyweight.
Elite weight targets from 100 to 240 lb bodyweight.
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s canonical tier and progress within that tier.
Use the calculator to apply the correct age range and exact bodyweight before comparing the two strength levels.
Close Grip Push Ups and Wide Grip Lat Pulldown Exercises Used by This Calculator
This calculator uses a strict close grip push ups test and a strict wide grip lat pulldown. Use strict canonical Close Grip Push Ups and Wide Grip Lat Pulldown tests. Do not mix variations, assistance, partial range, momentum, or different load conventions.
Use the canonical Close Grip Push Ups setup and load convention
Count one continuous set of strict close-grip reps. Each rep uses hands narrower than shoulder width, elbows tracking close, the chest reaching the same bottom range, and full elbow lockout at the top. Do not count standard-width, diamond, wide, decline, incline, weighted, knee-assisted, band-assisted, shallow, bounced, or changed-hand-position reps. Do not combine multiple sets into one score. Use the same rep standard for retests.
Use a strict, repeatable Wide Grip Lat Pulldown
Follow the individual Wide Grip Lat Pulldown calculator’s canonical setup, load convention, range of motion, and finish rules. Keep the same setup when retesting.
Enter one recent Close Grip Push Ups result and one recent Wide Grip Lat Pulldown result
Use each exercise’s canonical input: Strict repetitions for Close Grip Push Ups and Displayed machine or stack weight for Wide Grip Lat Pulldown.
