Cable Crunch vs Lying Leg Raise Strength Standards
Compare your cable crunch and lying leg raise against strength standards for your sex, age range, and bodyweight. Enter one recent result for each exercise to see your strength levels, next target, and which exercise is the priority.
Use each exercise's canonical input: Displayed machine or stack weight for Cable Crunch and Strict repetitions for Lying Leg Raise. Use a strict, repeatable cable crunch set that follows the canonical setup, range, and lockout rules; use one continuous set raising both extended legs to the approved top and lowering to the approved reset. Repetitions are never converted into weight. Each exercise keeps its own measurement type. Age range changes only an exercise whose standards use age.
Cable Crunch vs Lying Leg Raise Strength Standards by Bodyweight
These tables show the minimum result each exercise needs to reach Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, and Elite. Weight-based standards are shown in pounds and kilograms. Direct-performance standards remain strict repetitions or seconds and show every applicable age range.
Find your bodyweight in the men’s or women’s table, then read across the strength levels. Results measured in weight, repetitions, or seconds are not meant to match and are never converted into one another. Use the calculator for your exact inputs and a direct comparison of the strength levels.

How Your Cable Crunch vs Lying Leg Raise 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 Cable Crunch, 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 Cable Crunch result
The standards use the sex-specific targets from the individual Cable Crunch tool. The target adjusts to bodyweight using reference target × (user bodyweight ÷ reference bodyweight) to the two-thirds power.
3. Rate the Lying Leg Raise result
The canonical tool uses cohort-specific repetition bands and a stretch target. The calculator uses strict continuous bodyweight repetitions and does not convert the repetitions into an estimated weight.
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 cable crunch | Adjust cable crunch targets to exact bodyweight with the two-thirds rule. Measurement: estimated one-rep max. |
| Rate the lying-leg-raise set | Compare strict repetitions with the applicable thresholds. Measurement: Strict continuous lying leg-raise reps. |
| Compare levels | Use each exercise’s own level and next target; do not compare or divide results that use different measurements. |
How Men’s Cable Crunch and Lying Leg Raise Standards Differ
What the men’s standards show:
Elite weight targets from 120 to 300 lb bodyweight.
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 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 Cable Crunch and Lying Leg Raise Standards Differ
What the women’s standards show:
Elite weight targets from 100 to 240 lb bodyweight.
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 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.
Cable Crunch and Lying Leg Raise Exercises Used by This Calculator
This calculator uses a strict cable crunch and a strict lying leg-raise set. Use strict canonical Cable Crunch and Lying Leg Raise tests. Do not mix variations, assistance, partial range, momentum, or different load conventions.
Use a strict, repeatable Cable Crunch
Selected or loaded high-cable resistance is used Do not add bodyweight to the entered load Do not enter machine crunch, sit-up, leg-raise, torso-rotation, or lat-pulldown load Strict kneeling high-cable trunk flexion Same cable station, pulley height, attachment, rope position, kneeling distance, and range for the full set Hips, pelvis, and knees stay stable Enter displayed machine or stack weight. Keep the same equipment and setup when retesting.
Count controlled extended-leg repetitions
Raise both extended legs to the approved top and lower to the approved reset with the trunk supported. Do not enter reverse crunches, hanging raises, toes-to-bar, captain-chair raises, V-ups, bent-knee, partial, assisted, or combined-set reps.
Enter one recent Cable Crunch result and one recent Lying Leg Raise result
Use each exercise’s canonical input: Displayed machine or stack weight for Cable Crunch and Strict repetitions for Lying Leg Raise.
