Track, manage and review training performance just like elite and professional athletes right across the globe, through the Major Leagues, UFC, Premier League and Olympic institutes. Developed by the team at GymAware, FLEX packages everything we learned from delivering gold standard products to the pro ranks into the only VBT system developed specifically for individual use.

Set targets on key performance metrics to benchmark effort across your session. *Group Training* Add other lifters into your session for group training with up to three people.

Training partners can be added or removed from sessions at any time. *Video Mode* Switch to video mode and record your set with synced data overlaid on the saved file. Send to friends, coaches or share online. Handsfree start and stop. Set your device up and lift.

Set targets based on their results and compete and compare over the same workout. *1RM Predictions* Use the automated 1RM prediction protocol to gauge current strength and readiness levels without an actual 1RM attempt. *Multitasking* There are no limits in the FLEX app. Start regular sessions and add in training partners, or start a pre-programmed workout. Background the app and switch on your favourite tunes. Browse your historical results in the middle of your training sessions. Whatever you need is accessible any time. *Community* Create connections in the FLEX community so you can browse their training history, download sessions (complete with their results), send workouts, train in groups.
