Sinclair for Excel


Male
    =if(Bodyweight<173.961,10^(0.784780654*((LOG10(Bodyweight/173.961))^2)),1)

Female
    =if(Bodyweight<125.441,10^(1.056683941*((LOG10(Bodyweight/125.441))^2)),1)

Bodyweight = Cell Containing Bodyweight

 

Sinclair in VBScript


Function GetSinclair(totallift, liftersex, bw)

totallift = CDbl( totallift )
bw = CDbl( bw )
liftersex = CBool(liftersex)
B4 = 173.961
B5 = 125.441
B6 = 0.784780654
B7 = 1.056683941
dim Sin


liftersex = ConvertBit( liftersex)

if (liftersex = MALE_SEX ) then
    if ( bw > B4 ) then
        Sin = 1
    else
        Sin = 10^( B6*(LOG(bw/B4)/LOG_10)^2)
    end if
else
    if ( bw > B5) then
        Sin = 1
    else
        Sin = 10^( B7*(LOG(bw/B5)/LOG_10)^2 )
    end if
end if

GetSinclair = totallift * Sin

END Function

 

Siff in VBScript

Where Siff instead of using % of actual world records, uses % of what the absolute best lifter should be capable of.


Function GetSiff(totallift, sex, bw)

    sex = ConvertBit( sex )
    if ( sex = MALE_SEX ) then
        SiffFact = 512.245-(146230*(bw^-1.605))
    else
        SiffFact = 257.314-(943.063*EXP(-0.05142*bw))
    end if            
    GetSiff = (totallift/SiffFact)*100

END Function
