Weightlifting Volume Calculator

Multiply sets, reps, and load.

Your inputs

kg

Volume

1,920 kg

Sets times reps times load. The bar is included only if it is already in the load.

Formula

Tonnage for one exercise is the product of the three numbers:

Volume = sets × reps × load

A warm-up set is included only when you type it. The plate page builds a bar. This page does not.

Assumptions

  • Every set uses the same reps and load.
  • Load already includes the bar if the bar was lifted.

Worked example

4 sets of 8 at 60 kg are 1,920 kg of volume.

Input definitions

Sets
How many times the rep group is repeated.
Load
The weight on each rep, in kilograms.

Limitations

Volume is not fatigue, proximity to failure, or a program. It is only the product.

Questions

Do warm-ups count?

Only if you include them in the sets you type. The page cannot see the session.

What if the last set has fewer reps?

Enter that set as its own line in your notes. This page uses one rep count.
