Unlike subjective labels like "strong for your weight," this system provides concrete numerical standards for every exercise and weight class. Meet the standard — earn the rank. Simple and objective.
Why it's useful: You always know where you stand, what your next goal is, and how you compare to other athletes. This motivates and structures your training.
