Squat Percentiles — 47 kg Wraps Women
The 47 kg class covers women weighing up to 47 kg (104 lb). These percentiles are computed from 469 raw with knee wraps competition results in the OpenPowerlifting database. Remember that everyone in this dataset trained hard enough to enter a meet, so the 20th percentile here is already well above the average gym-goer.
| Percentile | Lbs | Kg | Band |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5th percentile | 66 lb | 30 kg | Novice |
| 10th percentile | 77 lb | 35 kg | Novice |
| 20th percentile | 105 lb | 47.5 kg | Intermediate |
| 30th percentile | 125 lb | 56.7 kg | Intermediate |
| 40th percentile | 138 lb | 62.5 kg | Intermediate |
| 50th percentile | 149 lb | 67.5 kg | Advanced |
| 60th percentile | 165 lb | 75 kg | Advanced |
| 70th percentile | 182 lb | 82.5 kg | Advanced |
| 80th percentile | 204 lb | 92.5 kg | Elite |
| 85th percentile | 215 lb | 97.5 kg | Elite |
| 90th percentile | 231 lb | 105 kg | Elite |
| 95th percentile | 259 lb | 117.5 kg | World Class |
| 97.5th percentile | 275 lb | 124.7 kg | World Class |
| 99th percentile | 320 lb | 145 kg | World Class |
Novice = below the 20th percentile of competitors. Intermediate = 20th–50th. Advanced = 50th–80th. Elite = 80th–95th. World Class = top 5%. Percentiles are calculated on the best squat from each meet entry, so a lifter with ten meets appears ten times; this weights the data toward experienced competitors.
How to Improve Your Squat
Squat strength is built on consistent volume in the 70–85% range with two to three squat sessions per week. Most stalls come from one of three places: getting folded over out of the hole (build the upper back and add paused squats), knees caving (tempo squats and adductor work), or simply not squatting heavy often enough. Competition-style low-bar squatting with a belt typically adds 5–10% over a beltless high-bar max once the technique is grooved. See the accessory selection guide for weak-point work and the program generator for a periodized plan.
