How to read the result
Enter your last deadlift set and get your next target. The notes below show the assumptions behind that recommendation.
Deadlift Next Set Calculator
Enter your last deadlift set and get your next target. Deadlift jumps should be conservative because fatigue cost rises faster than most lifts. Jacked turns the set into a clear next move.
Log the set in Jacked and the next target stays with the workout.
How Jacked chooses your next deadlift set
The calculator reads load, reps, and RIR, then applies deadlift-specific progression context. Deadlift jumps should be conservative because fatigue cost rises faster than most lifts.
When to add weight
Add load when you hit the top of the target range at the planned RIR without changing the deadlift standard.
When to add reps instead
If the load jump is large or reps are still inside range, keep the same deadlift weight and add reps first.
Common mistake
Do not chase a heavier pull when speed, brace, or start position has clearly degraded.
Short answers
What should I lift next for deadlift?
Use the smallest load jump when reps, RIR, and execution all support it. Otherwise add reps or hold load.
Why does RIR matter for deadlift?
RIR separates a repeatable progression signal from a set that only succeeded because effort spiked.
Jacked turns your training history into next-set targets, RIR tracking, rest timing, smart warm-ups, PRs, and progress feedback.
Method, assumptions, and privacy
Method
Uses reps plus RIR to estimate effective reps to failure, then applies rep-range progression rules: add load, add reps, hold, or reduce.
Assumptions
Best signal comes from recent sets in a stable rep range with consistent technique and a clear RIR estimate.
Privacy
Inputs are handled in the browser for the web tool experience. Jacked should only store lifting data when a user chooses to log it in the app.
Check the method before you trust the number. Bad inputs still produce tidy-looking outputs.
This is one set.
Jacked does it for your whole workout: next-set targets, RIR, rest timing, warm-ups, PRs, and progress feedback.
