User reviews

Doesnt calculate 2,5 increments

Doesnt work correctly. If you put in an increase of 2,5 every week stays the same.

Incredibly basic

Do not pay for this. It is unbelievably basic.

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.

Great

This apps awesome
