pl8s (“plates”) is a barbell percentage and plate calculator for your wrist. Enter a training max once and it shows each working weight with the exact plates to load per side, so the math is done before you walk to the rack.
Percentages: 90/80/70/60/50 in 10% steps, or 5% steps from 90 down to 60
Exact loads: every row is rounded to a weight your plates can actually build on a 45 lb Olympic bar
Plate glyph: the plates for each row are drawn side view, heaviest first
Your gym’s plates: tell it how many of each size are on the rack (0-10 per side, or 99 for unlimited) and each weight snaps down to a load those plates make
Quick to change: nudge the max 5 lb at a time, hold SELECT for the on-watch settings wizard, or use the settings page in the phone app
Remembers everything: max, step size and plate counts survive leaving the app
Plates are colored as 55 red, 45 blue, 35 yellow, 25 green, 15 pink, 10 white, 5 cyan, 2.5 grey: a disc with its weight printed on the face on the large screens, a side-view bar on the compact ones, and the same drawing in black and white on 1-bit displays.
Everything runs on the watch: no phone needed at the gym.
