Bar Path vs Heavy Loads

Instead of simply tracking only the quantity of your training, you can now also track the QUALITY. Bar Path helps you answer fundamental questions about your training. * Plot the path of the barbell. Did it have an unexpected trajectory? * Did your exercise travel through the complete range of motion? * Where is your weakest point in the lift? * How much power can you generate? * Do your reps look consistent across a set? * At what intensity does your form start to break down? * And much more… Get it now and start training smarter.
