Your friends make sure you show up. Rebase is workout accountability with friends. Set a weekly workout goal, say 3 sessions, invite your crew, and everyone sees who kept their word. Cheer, comment, get the weekly verdict. Private by default. FITNESS CHALLENGES WITH FRIENDS • Start a challenge (4-12 weeks) and invite friends with one link. They land straight in it, app installed or not. • Everyone sets their own weekly target. A beginner, a bodybuilder and a marathoner can be in the same group challenge. • Show up, check it in (photo optional). Your friends see it. Cheers and trash-talk follow. • Every Monday: the weekly recap. Who hit the week, who came up one short, streaks and the leaderboard. • No workout buddies free right now? Join an open challenge and meet people who are also trying to stay consistent. WORKOUT ACCOUNTABILITY THAT ACTUALLY WORKS Nobody feels bad letting an app down. Everybody feels bad letting friends down. Rebase turns the promise you made to yourself into one you made to your crew. The kind you keep. Gym, running, cycling, climbing, pilates, home workouts: if you did it, it counts. LOG WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS No sets, no reps, no muscle maps. Rebase counts whether you went, and your friends see it. Keep using whatever you track with; Rebase Pro even imports your Strava activities automatically. REBASE PRO (optional) Run up to 5 fitness challenges at once, auto-import workouts from Strava and Apple Health, unlock every group leaderboard and the advanced weekly recaps. Recurring billing, cancel anytime. Start a challenge tonight. Send the link. See who shows up. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
