The IPF GL Points system is the official scoring method used by the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) to compare the strength of lifters across different bodyweight classes. It replaced the older Wilks formula in 2019. Unlike Wilks, the IPF Points formula was developed using a massive dataset of actual competition results, making it a more statistically robust and fair system. It accounts for differences between men and women, as well as between raw (classic) and equipped lifting. This calculator allows you to easily find your IPF GL Points score.
