# attempt-selector is your competition strategist. AI Agent Connect > attempt-selector helps powerlifters move past guesswork when planning meet attempts. It uses your gym maxes, experience level, and risk tolerance to calculate a logical sequence for squat, bench press, and deadlift. You can run simulations to see if your third attempts are realistic or if your strategy is too aggressive for your current strength. ## Overview - **Category:** utilities - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_ZlpsXEuZbgj0VjlETG9bbJltaNT7qX9rSPe0EQvh/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** powerlifting, strength, competition, fitness-planning, weightlifting ## Description Planning a meet is about more than just knowing your max. You have to manage the platform, your energy, and the risk of a missed lift. This MCP gives your AI client the math it needs to build a professional attempt plan. Instead of guessing what your opener should be, you provide your gym numbers and let the tool calculate a sequence that builds momentum without being reckless. You can use it to check if your goals align with your weight class or to see how likely you are to actually make a specific weight. It takes the emotion out of the decision. If you are feeling aggressive, you can run a risk analysis to see if that strategy actually makes sense based on your training history. It turns your AI agent into a data-driven coach that helps you navigate the three attempts for every lift. ## Tools ### analyze_risk_profile This tool evaluates how your intended lifting strategy matches your current gym strength. It helps you see if you are being too cautious or too aggressive. ### get_attempt_plan This tool generates a full three-attempt sequence for squat, bench, and deadlift. It builds the plan based on your specific athlete profile. ### simulate_attempt_success_probability This tool provides a statistical estimate of your chances to make a specific lift. It uses your training data to predict success for each attempt in a sequence. ### validate_weight_class_compliance This tool checks if your projected lifts are realistic for your specific weight class. It ensures your strength-to-weight ratios stay within reasonable bounds. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Calculate my attempts for a squat max of 200kg, bench max of 120kg, and deadlift max of 240kg. I am an intermediate lifter with moderate risk tolerance. ``` **Response:** ``` Your squat attempts are 170kg, 190kg, and 200kg. Your bench attempts are 102kg, 114kg, and 120kg. Your deadlift attempts are 204kg, 228kg, and 240kg. ``` **Prompt:** ``` I am a novice lifter with a 150kg squat. What is the probability of me successfully making a 140kg second attempt? ``` **Response:** ``` The probability of successfully completing a 140kg second attempt with a 150kg gym max as a novice is 0.75. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Is a 300kg deadlift realistic for a 83kg weight class lifter? ``` **Response:** ``` Yes, a 300kg deadlift is within the realistic strength profile for an advanced athlete in the 83kg weight class. ``` ## Capabilities ### Attempt Sequencing The AI uses this to build a complete three-lift plan for your competition. ### Risk Assessment Your agent uses this to check if your planned weights are too aggressive for your current maxes. ### Success Prediction The AI runs statistical models to estimate the likelihood of you making a specific weight. ### Weight Class Validation Your agent checks if your strength goals are realistic for your body weight. ## Use Cases ### Meet Prep Generate a full squat, bench, and deadlift plan once you have your gym maxes set. ### Risk Management Check if a heavy third attempt is statistically likely to succeed before you step on the platform. ### Weight Class Check Verify that your strength goals are appropriate for your current weight category. ### Strategy Adjustment Use risk profiling to decide if you should play it safe or go for a PR. ## Benefits - Reduces the chance of a missed lift by calculating logical openers. - Provides statistical backing for aggressive or conservative lifting strategies. - Ensures your planned attempts are realistic for your weight class. - Automates the math required to build a full three-lift sequence. ## How It Works Connect the MCP to your preferred AI client and start planning. 1.
