Finally—a powerlifting specific app to help you intelligently plan your year (or years) of lifting, adding serious pounds to your lifting total. This app is built for the non-nonsense lifter, your long haul companion for sustained progress. Programming: Unlimited access to an ever-growing library of expert strength and powerlifting programs written by a seasoned powerlifting coach. Whether you’re just getting started with lifting, or you’re looking for some serious PRs on the platform, there’s something valuable here for every lifter. Also featured is our extensive exercise library with thorough descriptions and video tutorials. Customization: Once you pick your program, you have the ability to schedule accordingly, swap out exercise, make modifications, recalculate your remaining sets based on fatigue level, and so much more. With our readiness calculator, you can input your sleep, nutrition, stress level and more to get a feel for how ready you are before every session, and adjust accordingly. Much better than a spreadsheet, your programming actually grows and adapts with you by the session. Powerful training metrics: Easy to interpret visuals and graphs help you keep track of important metrics, such as 1RM, e1RM, average recovery, session volume, and much more over time.
