Go beyond just logging your workouts. RecovaCoach is a strength training app that helps you manage not only your workouts, but your recovery too. ■ See each muscle's recovery at a glance Check which muscles have recovered and which are still recovering on a body map, covering your chest, back, legs, shoulders, arms, core, and more. It also shows about when each muscle will be recovered. With Pro, recovery times are estimated from your sets, weights, and profile, such as age and body type. ■ Know what to train today Based on your split (push, pull, legs, and so on) and your recovery, RecovaCoach suggests today's day and muscles, helping you train efficiently while avoiding overtraining. With Pro, Today's plan shows weight × reps for each exercise from your last session, the reason, and when to add weight. It fits your equipment at each place and your goal, and can fit a workout of up to 30 or 45 minutes. ■ Simple yet detailed logging Log weight × reps, time, or bodyweight exercises, each in the format that fits. Your previous numbers are shown automatically, so logging is quick. Work in kilograms or pounds, and set your height in feet and inches. Add notes to each day and exercise, and keep your start and end times. ■ 162 exercises, each with an illustration Chest, back, legs, shoulders, arms, glutes, traps, forearms, calves and abs — 162 free-weight, machine, and bodyweight exercises are built in. Each illustration shows the movement and highlights the muscles it works. One exercise can work more than one muscle, so a bench press counts toward your shoulders and triceps as well as your chest. You can add your own exercises too. Search also finds exercises by other common names, such as "pec fly." ■ Watch your strength climb Every set shows its estimated 1RM, and sets that match or beat your previous best are marked MAX. Open any exercise to see how that number has moved over weeks and months, alongside its personal best history. ■ Start from your routines Exercise combinations you do often are detected automatically, so you can start them again in one tap. ■ Never miss a personal best Every set is checked automatically, and RecovaCoach celebrates the moment you hit a new PR. ■ Review your progress Stats are split into Summary, Exercises, Muscles, and Recovery, from overall volume and weekly sets per muscle down to a single lift. Pro also flags stalled lifts and forecasts your next milestone. The free version covers the last 3 months; Pro unlocks a full year and your entire history. ■ Share your effort Turn a day's workout, a list of every exercise you did, your week or month, or a new personal best into an image. With Add to Photo, a sticker of the muscles you trained and your volume goes right onto your own photo. Tap Finish on the Log screen after your last set to share the day's summary right away. Transparent stickers are available too. ■ Check your rest time on the Lock Screen Your rest timer appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so you can see the time until your next set without picking up your phone. It also appears on Apple Watch. (iOS 16.2 or later; Apple Watch requires watchOS 11 or later) Your workout logs are stored on your device, and you can log workouts even when you're offline. Some features require a Pro subscription (in-app purchase), available monthly or annually. Great for you if you: • Just started strength training and aren't sure what to train • Want to avoid overtraining • Want to manage recovery, not just log workouts • Want to see the results of your training About Pro (auto-renewing) • Pro Monthly — renews automatically every month • Pro Annual — renews automatically every 12 months • How to cancel: cancel in your device's Settings at least 24 hours before your next renewal date Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://recovacoach-app.github.io/recovacoach-site/en/#privacy
