This weight conversion tool will allow you to:

  • convert pounds to kilograms
  • convert kilograms to pounds
  • provide the converted weight +/- 5% for adjusting attempts during the meet
  • customize rounding to nearest 2.5 or 5

Be sure to also check out the powerlifting meet attempt selection spreadsheet so you’re not doing conversions on meet day! But just in case, here’s a tool for that. 🙂
