## What is Plates on Plates?

Plates on Plates is the fitness tracker built around one idea: 
plates. The weight plates you stack in the gym. The plates of 
food you put on your table.

Two tabs. One metaphor. Zero fluff.

LIFT
Log workouts the way you actually train. Pick a muscle group, 
choose your exercises, and track your sets. A live plate 
visualization shows exactly what's loaded on the bar — no 
mental math required.

- Full exercise catalog (50+ movements, all muscle groups)
- Per-set weight, reps, and completion tracking
- Barbell plate visualizer with color-coded plates
- Lifting history to track your progress over time
- iCloud sync across all your devices

EAT
Ditch calorie counting. Log what you ate by plate type — 
Protein Heavy, Balanced, Carb Heavy, Light, Indulgent, or 
Smoothie. Adjust the portion slider. Done.

- 6 plate categories with sensible macro defaults
- Portion slider scales macros proportionally
- Daily macro totals: calories, protein, carbs, fat
- Automatic time-of-day grouping (no manual meal labeling)

PLATES PRO
Upgrade for power-user features: unlimited history, saved 
workout templates, progressive overload nudges, custom 
exercises, exercise notes, favoriting, meal history browsing, 
weekly macro summaries, and more.

Monthly - Annual (7-day free trial) - Lifetime

The free tier is fully functional. No session caps. No feature 
timers. Just a clean, fast tracker that gets out of your way.
