Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) Strength Standards Calculator
Compare your Cable Incline Pulldown strength with Endura's strength standards for men and women at your bodyweight. A useful benchmark for a good one-rep max is our Intermediate standard: approximately 92 lb at 190 lb for a man and 50 lb at 150 lb for a woman.
How does your best lift compare? Enter your bodyweight, the selected or displayed cable-stack resistance, and the reps you completed below. The calculator estimates your one-rep max and shows your strength level for your bodyweight. Count 1–5 whole repetitions with both sides moving together through the same controlled range.
The calculator compares that estimated one-rep max with the Cable Incline Pulldown standards for your sex at your bodyweight. Use the result to compare sets performed with the same equipment and movement rules. The benchmark is a comparison target, not a working-set prescription.
What Is a Good Weight for Cable Incline Pulldown?
A useful Endura benchmark for Cable Incline Pulldown is the Intermediate level. At the reference bodyweights used by this model, Intermediate begins around 92 lb for a 190 lb man and 50 lb for a 150 lb woman. These are estimated one-rep-max comparison targets, not universal starting weights or measured population averages.
Enter the selected or displayed cable-stack resistance. Keep the same convention when comparing sets. Count 1–5 whole repetitions with both sides moving together through the same controlled range. Enter your bodyweight, exact exercise weight, and valid reps to see how your set compares with the bodyweight-adjusted standards and the next target.
Your Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) result compares your estimated one-rep max with strength targets adjusted for your sex and exact bodyweight. The result is still specific to Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine); it should not be treated as a rating for a nearby exercise.
A heavier lifter receives higher target weights, 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.
Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) 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 selected or displayed cable-stack resistance. Use the same cable station and setup when comparing sets. Count 1–5 whole repetitions with both sides moving together through the same controlled range. Set an incline bench facing away from the cable pulley and attach one bar. Fix the pulley setting, incline angle, bench position, and cable stack before the counted set. Lie supine with feet securely planted or fixed on the bench support. Hold the bar with both hands and begin with arms controlled in the repeatable overhead/forward extension range. Keep torso, hips, and shoulders stable against the bench. Pull the bar toward the thighs with near-straight arms and a smooth shoulder-extension path; the finish is clear and controlled, not a press, crunch, row, or triceps extension. Return under control to the same start range.
Endura built these standards from reviewed Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) targets and adjusts them for different bodyweights. They are practical benchmarks for this exact test—not population averages.

How the Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) 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 Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) 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 110 lb at 150 lb bodyweight, 129 lb at 190 lb, and 147 lb at 230 lb. That is why the calculator needs your exact bodyweight instead of using one fixed bodyweight ratio for everyone.
Elite Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) Strength Levels
Elite Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) 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 | 144 lb | 173 lb |
| Men | 190 lb | 168 lb | 203 lb |
| Men | 230 lb | 191 lb | 231 lb |
| Women | 120 lb | 84 lb | 103 lb |
| Women | 150 lb | 97 lb | 120 lb |
| Women | 180 lb | 110 lb | 136 lb |
Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) Strength Compared to Other Lifts
Use these comparisons to see how your Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) 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.

Milestones in Cable Incline Pulldown (Supine) Strength
Enter the selected or displayed cable-stack resistance. Use the same cable station and setup when comparing sets. Count 1–5 whole repetitions with both sides moving together through the same controlled range. Set an incline bench facing away from the cable pulley and attach one bar. Fix the pulley setting, incline angle, bench position, and cable stack before the counted set. Lie supine with feet securely planted or fixed on the bench support. Hold the bar with both hands and begin with arms controlled in the repeatable overhead/forward extension range. Keep torso, hips, and shoulders stable against the bench. Pull the bar toward the thighs with near-straight arms and a smooth shoulder-extension path; the finish is clear and controlled, not a press, crunch, row, or triceps extension. Return under control to the same start range.
