YOUR ADAPTIVE COACH (PRO) Move a session, swap an exercise, plan around a ski trip, or ask what to focus on this week. The coach knows your program, your logged sessions, your check-ins and your personal records, so every answer is about your training. It can build or adjust your plan, and nothing changes until you approve it. TRAIN WITH FOCUS Work through each session set by set, with rest timers, your previous numbers and load suggestions right on screen. Personal records are tracked the moment you set them. Day, week and block views show exactly where you are in the plan. BUILD THE HABITS THAT WIN SEASONS Daily check-ins for sleep, soreness and energy. Habits that keep you consistent. A Sunday recap of how your week went and what is coming next. FUEL LIKE AN ATHLETE (PRO) Snap a photo of your meal or describe it, and see your calories and macros against your daily targets.
