By replacing rudimentary step-functions and static algorithms with continuous mathematical curves and variance-adjusted modeling, Protokl adapts to your metabolism and recovery capacity in real-time. Protokl is your all-in-one fitness transformation companion, built on exercise science to help you reach your body composition and strength goals faster. SET YOUR GOALS Choose your path — fat loss, muscle gain, or body recomposition. Protokl builds a personalized plan based on your current stats, experience level, and preferred pace, then projects your timeline using our proprietary algorithm grounded in published physiological research. DAILY PROTOCOL Your personalized daily checklist keeps you accountable. Track sleep, meals, workouts, body composition, steps, and custom tasks — all in one place. Smart reminders keep you on schedule, and tiles auto-complete as you hit your targets. SMART WORKOUTS Recovery-based workout programming that adapts to you.

Warm-up sets, supersets, drop sets, and rest timers are built in. NUTRITION TRACKING Log meals from a curated recipe database or search thousands of foods. Protokl calculates your daily calorie and protein targets based on your TDEE, goal, and pace — then tracks your progress throughout the day. BODY COMPOSITION ANALYTICS Track bodyweight, body fat percentage, and lean body mass with interactive charts. See your 2-week trend, plan forecast, confidence intervals, and goal progress. Syncs automatically with Apple Health. STRENGTH TRACKING Monitor your lifts over time with per-exercise history charts, estimated 1RM tracking, and strength progression forecasts.

Choose from 55+ plans with picks for you, build your own routine, or have your coach build a program that changes block by block. "Up now" always shows the day you're on, ready in one tap. Training off a plan someone else wrote? With Pro, paste it in and it becomes a routine: days, sets, reps and rest. STACK: TRACK YOUR SUPPLEMENTS Your supplements, one tap per dose. Creatine, protein, vitamins, electrolytes, grouped by when you take them, with a streak and a 12-week consistency grid for each one. Search the library or add anything you track yourself: name it, set the dose and the schedule. Everything you log stays yours. It never turns up in a coach message or a leaderboard. dynaimic records what you enter; it doesn't dose or advise. WHAT MAKES DYNAIMIC DIFFERENT • It listens after every session.
