Every lift
ranked.
Ascend turns every exercise into a ranked climb. Your MMR is measured against your own bodyweight and sex — so it’s your strength that counts, not anyone else’s. Copper to Champion, one PR at a time.

How ranking works
Same bar. Your story.
Every exercise has its own MMR from 0 to 14,000. A 100 kg bench is Platinum III for an 82 kg man — and Diamond IV for a 62 kg woman. Ascend ranks the effort, not just the number on the bar.
Log a set
Weight × reps becomes an estimated one-rep max (Epley), so a heavy triple counts just like a single.
Scored for your body
Your e1RM is weighed against your bodyweight and sex — Wilks-2 for the big three, sport-science standards for 140+ other lifts.
Climb the divisions
Each tier has five divisions, V up to I. Cross a line and you’re promoted the moment you finish. Ranks never drop.
