Landmine Deadlift vs Trap Bar Deadlift Strength Standards
Compare your landmine deadlift and trap bar deadlift against strength standards for your sex and bodyweight. Enter one recent set of 1–12 reps for each lift to see your estimated one-rep maxes, strength levels, next targets, and which lift you should prioritize.
Use each exercise's canonical input: Total barbell load and a whole number from 1 to 12 reps for Landmine Deadlift and Total external weight and a whole number from 1 to 12 reps for Trap Bar Deadlift. Use the total loaded free-end landmine weight used for the set and a strict, repeatable trap bar deadlift set that follows the canonical setup, range, and lockout rules. You can enter either lift in pounds or kilograms. Each lift is compared with its own standards, so the heavier lift is not automatically the stronger one.
Landmine Deadlift vs Trap Bar Deadlift Strength Standards by Bodyweight
Use these tables to compare the estimated one-rep max required for the landmine deadlift and trap bar deadlift to reach the same strength level at each listed bodyweight. They show the targets used by the calculator—not a required difference between your landmine deadlift and trap bar deadlift.
Choose the men’s or women’s table, find your bodyweight or the closest listed row, then read across to Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, or Elite. Every entry shows Landmine Deadlift / Trap Bar Deadlift, with pounds first and kilograms underneath. For a result based on your exact bodyweight and recent sets, use the calculator above; you do not need to test either true one-rep max.

How Your Landmine Deadlift vs Trap Bar Deadlift Result Is Calculated
The calculator estimates each max, rates it against the standards for that exercise and bodyweight, then compares the two ratings. Here is the complete process.
1. Estimate a one-rep max from each set
For one rep, it uses the weight entered. For 2–12 reps, it runs both formulas and keeps the lower, less aggressive estimate.
- 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. Estimates are more dependable from clean, difficult, lower-rep sets. See the Back-squat formula validation study and Published discussion of back-squat one-rep-max prediction research.
2. Find the landmine deadlift strength level
The standards use the sex-specific thresholds from the individual Landmine Deadlift tool. Targets begin at 190 lb for men and 150 lb for women, then adjust to your exact bodyweight: reference target × (user bodyweight ÷ reference bodyweight) to the two-thirds power.
The target rises more slowly than bodyweight so larger lifters are expected to lift more without requiring strength to increase pound for pound.
3. Find the trap bar deadlift strength level
The standards use the sex-specific targets from the individual Trap Bar Deadlift tool. Targets begin at 190 lb for men and 150 lb for women, then adjust to your exact bodyweight: reference target × (user bodyweight ÷ reference bodyweight) to the two-thirds power.
The target rises more slowly than bodyweight so heavier lifters are expected to lift more without requiring strength to increase pound for pound.
4. Compare the two results
Each max receives a level from Beginner through Elite. The lower-level lift is the priority. If the levels match, a priority appears only when one lift is at least 10 points farther from its next level. Otherwise, the result is Balanced.
The result shows which lift ranks lower, not why. Technique, fatigue, training history, and set quality can affect it. Age range is recorded anonymously but does not change the standards.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Estimate each max | Use the entered weight for 1 rep; for 2–12 reps, keep the lower formula result. |
| Rate the landmine deadlift | Use the canonical estimated max and adjust targets to exact bodyweight with the approved two-thirds rule. |
| Rate the trap bar deadlift | Adjust trap bar deadlift targets to exact bodyweight with the two-thirds rule. |
| Compare different levels | Name the lower-level lift as the priority. |
| Compare matching levels | Use Balanced unless the difference in progress toward the next level reaches 10 points. |
Use the calculator above to see both estimated maxes, strength levels, the priority or Balanced result, and both next-level targets.
How Men’s Landmine Deadlift and Trap Bar Deadlift Standards Differ
How to read both charts: Choose a strength level, find bodyweight along the bottom, and follow that level’s line. Zero means the two standards are equal. Above zero means the trap bar deadlift standard is higher; below zero means the landmine deadlift standard is higher. On a phone, swipe the chart left and right to inspect the full-size lines and labels. The tables provide the exact pounds and kilograms.
What the men’s data shows:
The standards come closest at 120 lb.
Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, and Elite at every displayed bodyweight.
24 → 44.5 kg from 120 to 300 lb bodyweight.
How to read the table: Every number is the trap bar deadlift standard minus the landmine deadlift standard. A plus sign means the trap bar deadlift standard is higher. A minus sign means the landmine deadlift standard is higher.

Landmine Deadlift and Trap Bar Deadlift Exercises Used by This Calculator
This calculator uses a strict landmine deadlift test and a strict trap bar deadlift. Use strict canonical Landmine Deadlift and Trap Bar Deadlift tests. Do not mix variations, assistance, partial range, momentum, or different load conventions.
Use the canonical Landmine Deadlift setup and load convention
the total loaded free-end landmine weight used for the set strict free-end landmine deadlift reps pull the loaded free end of the anchored bar from the accepted bottom position to full standing control, keeping the angled bar path stable and avoiding bounced, hitched, rowed, or raised-block substitutions Consistent setup, range, and finish quality across the entered set No substituted exercise or assisted reps
Use a strict, repeatable Trap Bar Deadlift
High-handle trap bar deadlift only. Strapless, neutral grip, from floor to lockout. Load entered is total external load on the trap bar. If reps > 1 are entered, 1RM is estimated using the Epley/Brzycki blend. No age adjustment applied; adult lifter standards (18–50). Percentiles are tier-anchored approximations, not precise population statistics. Enter total external weight. Keep the same equipment and setup when retesting.
Enter one recent Landmine Deadlift result and one recent Trap Bar Deadlift result
Use each exercise’s canonical input: Total barbell load and a whole number from 1 to 12 reps for Landmine Deadlift and Total external weight and a whole number from 1 to 12 reps for Trap Bar Deadlift.
