Scroll Patrol vs EqualSet

Scroll Patrol puts the apps you lose hours to behind a workout. Pick the apps that pull you in. They stay locked until you have minutes to spend on them — and the only way to get minutes is to move. EARN TIME WITH YOUR BODY Push-ups, squats, jumping jacks and planks are counted by your camera, automatically, while you move. Prop your phone up, start a set, and watch the count climb. No wearable, no manual logging, no honour system. Prefer to walk? Scroll Patrol reads your steps and distance from Apple Health and turns them into minutes too. That happens in the background — no workout to start. SPEND IT WHERE IT MATTERS Earned minutes go into one balance. You decide which app gets them. Give Instagram fifteen minutes, keep the rest for later, or spend the lot in one go. MINUTES YOU ACTUALLY USED Time counts down while you are in the app, and stops when you leave it. Put your phone in your pocket and your minutes are still there when you come back. Every patrolled app shows how much is left, and warns you a minute before it locks. Adding time tops up what is already there rather than starting over. NO QUIZ. NO ACCOUNT. NO WAITING. No twenty-screen questionnaire, no "calculating your personalised plan", no email address. Three short screens and you are picking apps. You can be earning minutes within a minute of opening it for the first time. PRICED TO BE KEPT Apps in this category routinely ask $10-15 a month. Scroll Patrol is $2.99 a month with the first week free, $24.99 a year, or $49.99 once for life. Every version includes everything; there is no higher tier and nothing is held back.

EqualSet is used to calculate a One Repetition Maximum (1RM) Target (from either direct input of the maximum weight, for by entering a Target Set (Weight and Reps)). And from the 1RM, the app will calculate sets that are equal to the 1RM, or Training Load percentage. Usage Target Set: 1.) Either enter the Target Set -> One Rep Max or enter the set that will be used to calculate the One Rep Max. a.) If the Weight and Reps are entered in the Target Set, the One Rep Max will be calculated. b.) If the One Rep Max is entered directly in the Target Set, the Weight will equal the One Rep Max, and the Reps will equal 1. Equal Sets: 1.) If "Reps" are entered, the "Weight" will be calculated to use to equal the Equal Sets -> Load. 2.) If "Weight" is entered, then the "Reps" will be calculated that are needed to equal the Equal Sets -> Load. a.) If the Weight is more than the Equal Sets -> Load, or the calculated Reps is less than 1 or more than 99, the Reps will show "NA". The Reps will display a valid number after the Weight has been adjusted. Training Load Chart: 1.) After the "Target Set" is entered and the 1RM is calculated, a "Training Load Chart" will be generated in the bottom part of the screen. 2.) The "Training Load Chart" will display the Percent (% 1RM), Reps, and Weight of the Target Set -> One Rep Max. a.) The table will display the % 1RM, Reps, and Weight for up to 20 Reps, or 60% of the Training Load. 3.) If you are wanting to do a workout less than 100% (e.g. ~91%) then you would select the row in the Training Load Chart that contains 91% in the % 1RM. a.) Click on the 91% row and it set the Weight in that row to the Equal Sets -> Load and and recalculate the the calculated Equal Sets (Reps and Weight). Example Usage: You are going to do a bench press workout but don't want to do a max workout. You decide to make it a lite day and do a 70% workout. You know your max is 420, so you enter 420 in the Target Set -> One Rep Max. You look up the the row in the Training Load Chart for a % 1RM of 70% and select the row. The weight of 293 for the selected row will appear in the Equal Sets -> Load and the Equal Sets are recalculated (Reps and Weight) If you are doing 20 Reps or less, you could just use the updated Training Load Chart to see the Weight and Reps you need to lift to equal the Target Set -> One Rep Max, but if you want to do more than 20 reps, or you want to use a weight that is not listed in the Training Load Chart, you would enter those values in the Equal Sets fields to calculate an equivalent set. For example, you want to do a set with 30 Reps. Enter 30 into Equal Sets -> Reps and it will calculate a Weight of 147. Well that is an odd weight and you know that you have the correct bar and plate combinations for 150, or the machine has a setting for 150, so enter 150 into the Equal Sets -> Weight and it will tell you that you need to do 29 Reps to equal the Equal Sets -> Load of 293, which in turn is 70% of the Target Set -> One Rep Max. I have used this approach (equal sets) along with lifting to failure for many years and I am still getting stronger!
