Calculadora de Pontuação DOTS — Formula
## How the DOTS Score Works
DOTS (Dynamic Objective Team Scoring) is a modern coefficient for comparing powerlifting performances across weight classes.
### Formula
**DOTS Score = Total (kg) x DOTS Coefficient**
The coefficient uses a 4th-degree polynomial fitted to updated performance data, providing a more balanced comparison across weight classes than the older Wilks formula.
### Advantages Over Wilks
DOTS uses more recent competition data and provides a fairer comparison at the extreme ends of the body weight spectrum.

Exemplo Resolvido
An 82 kg male lifter with a 500 kg powerlifting total.
- Calculate denominator for male at 82 kg using polynomial
- DOTS coefficient is approximately 0.687
- DOTS score = 500 * 0.687 = 343.5
