PlateForge Barbell
PlateForge Barbell Math is a visual barbell-loading and warm-up-ramp engine for powerlifters, strongman athletes, Olympic lifters, and strength coaches who need to know instantly which plates go on the bar, in what order, and how to ramp safely to a heavy single. Instead of mental math or scribbled plate math on a whiteboard, the app renders an actual color-coded barbell on screen, built from the lifter's real plate inventory, and auto-generates percentage-based warm-up ladders, competition attempt plans, and session history, all tuned to IPF/IWF calibrated-plate conventions.
