## What is AuraBuilt?

Most workout apps are notebooks — you write the numbers, and that's the end of it. AuraBuilt reads them back.

It watches what you lifted, how hard it felt, and what you've recovered, then decides what you should do next. The program writes itself while you train.

A COACH, NOT A NOTEBOOK
• Tell it your goal and your equipment, and it builds today's session from the muscles you've actually recovered
• Your targets progress on their own — from RPE/RIR when you log it, or simply from hitting your reps when you don't
• Load jumps scale to the lift and to your level, so a mature bench moves 5 lb while a new one moves faster
• Stall on a lift and it spots it and prescribes the deload
• Between sets it nudges the next weight up, down, or holds — based on the set you just finished

IT TELLS YOU WHAT'S WRONG
• Plateaus, called out before you notice them
• Muscles you've quietly stopped training
• Push/pull and quad/hamstring imbalances
• A lift lagging the rest of its muscle group
• And one thing that's genuinely going well

KNOW WHEN YOU'RE READY
• A recovery model scores every muscle group and tells you when it's ready again
• A full-body map colours each muscle by how recovered it is
• Stop guessing whether today should be legs

PROVEN PROGRAMS, SCHEDULED FOR YOU
• 5/3/1, StrongLifts 5×5, Starting Strength, GZCLP, Madcow, Texas Method, nSuns, PPL, PHUL, PHAT
• Enter your starting weights and it prescribes every set and puts them on your calendar
• A/B days genuinely alternate — the rotation follows your training days, not the weekday

STRENGTH RATINGS THAT ARE ACTUALLY FAIR
• Your lifts rated against published standards, scaled to your bodyweight and sex
• Sub-levels inside each tier, so progress shows up monthly instead of yearly

LOG IN SECONDS
• Every set shows what you did on that same set last time
• Warm-up, drop and AMRAP set types, supersets, cardio intervals, per-exercise rest timers
• A big, one-handed layout built for the gym floor

TRACK EVERYTHING ELSE
• Bodyweight, measurements and progress photos with before/after compare
• Goals, 63 achievements, training streaks that survive a rest day
• Plate calculator, warm-up ramp calculator, interval/EMOM timer

APPLE WATCH & APPLE HEALTH
• Log and adjust sets from your wrist, with live heart rate and calories
• Optionally save workouts, weight and heart rate to Apple Health

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Works offline, no account required
• Your training, body and Health data stay on your device
• Health data is never used for advertising

FREE & PRO
• Free: every feature, ad-supported, with limits on saved routines, photos, history and analytics
• Pro: removes ads and all limits, unlocks full analytics and backups
