About Smolov Squat Calculator
This Russian squat cycle has also been used by many for other lifts such as the bench press, shoulder press and deadlift with big jumps in strength. Smolov isn't for new lifters, but if you have some experience under your belt (like with 5/3/1, starting strength, 20 squat, etc.), then this may be a great lifting protocol for you.

Wrong Calculations
The app does a good job calculating based off percentages of your inputted 1RM. However, it does not add the 20 and 30 pound increases during the intermediate phase of the program (weeks 4 and 5). It only goes up by the increment you set app (5-10lbs).

Handy
Great overall, but all the resources I viewed mentioned a 20 pound and then 30 pound increase during the base cycle, but the app only calculates a 5 pound incremental increase.
