If I can lift a given weight on Seated Shoulder Press, what should I lift on Full Squat?

Enter your Seated Shoulder Press weight in the exercise comparison tool. Lyfta estimates an equivalent Full Squat based on how those two lifts typically compare at the same strength percentile.

Is Seated Shoulder Press vs Full Squat a 1:1 conversion?

Usually not. The tool uses strength standards, not a simple ratio, so the equivalent Full Squat can be higher or lower than your Seated Shoulder Press depending on the lifts.

Which lifts can I compare?

You can compare any two exercises in the Lyfta standards library, including bench vs squat, squat vs deadlift, and accessory lifts such as rows, presses, and curls.

Is the equivalent weight a training recommendation?

No. It is a statistical estimate of what lifters at a similar strength percentile typically lift on the second exercise. Use it as a starting point, not a prescription.
