What “good” means in these tables
- Yes — Intermediate
- Meets Endura’s first good strength category for the sex and bodyweight shown.
- Yes — Advanced
- Above that first good category; a stronger result for the profile shown.
- Yes — Elite
- Reaches the highest named Endura category for the profile shown.
- Not yet
- Below Endura’s Intermediate benchmark for that sex and bodyweight. It is a starting point, not a judgment about your potential.
What if you completed 50 kg for more than one rep?
A single is only one way to perform this weight. More completed reps raise the estimated one-rep max Endura scores, which can change the answer for your bodyweight. The examples below use the same model as the calculator; enter any whole-number rep count from 1 through 10 above for your exact result.
| Completed set | Estimated 1RM | Good for men at | Good for women at |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 kg × 1 | 49.9 kg | Every row shown (55–120 kg) | Every row shown (45–100 kg) |
| 50 kg × 5 | 56.2 kg | Every row shown (55–120 kg) | Every row shown (45–100 kg) |
| 50 kg × 10 | 66.7 kg | Every row shown (55–120 kg) | Every row shown (45–100 kg) |
The men’s and women’s columns show the bodyweight ranges where each example reaches Intermediate or higher. If your bodyweight falls between rows, use the calculator result rather than rounding from the table.

Your 50 kg Barbell Curl Answer
At the top of the results card, you will see a direct answer that includes the weight and completed reps you entered. Yes means Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite. Not quite means Novice; Not yet means Beginner.
Your Strength Tier
Your Strength Tier is Beginner, Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite. Intermediate is a good, solid strength result. Advanced indicates greater strength, and Elite is the highest Endura tier.
Your Result Details
The result card repeats the 50 kg set, completed reps, and estimated one-rep max. Check those details before relying on the result. For example, a 85 kg man who completes 50 kg for one rep ranks in Endura’s Intermediate tier. More completed reps at the same weight produce a higher estimated one-rep max.
Your Input Check
The You entered line lists the exercise, weight, completed reps, and estimated one-rep max used for the calculation. The result-context line confirms the sex, age, and bodyweight used to assess that set.
Your Strength Snapshot
The Your Strength Snapshot card gives you a record to compare with a later result from the same exercise.

The What This Means and When to Recheck cards explain the result and when it makes sense to test again.
