It brings together precise strength logging, AI-powered programming, Apple Watch support, muscle recovery, Training Score, insight cards, cardio tracking, body measurements, social features, and progress analytics — everything you need to train smarter with more clarity and consistency. Track every set with weight, reps, RPE, rest time, warm-up sets, drop sets, and custom exercises. A built-in rest timer with Live Activities keeps you on pace without touching your phone, while estimated 1RM and personal records update automatically. Plan your training week from the redesigned Workout tab. Schedule strength and cardio sessions ahead, follow active programs, review targets, browse your exercise library, and jump into training faster. Genova supports workout programs, template management, weekly planning, and post-workout summaries. The AI coach helps you create workouts, build periodized programs, ask technique questions, analyze weak points, and get recommendations based on your training. The AI overlay lets you ask contextual follow-up questions from supported screens without leaving the flow. You stay in control with AI consent, memory, and data preferences. Recovery and readiness are built in. Genova estimates when muscles are ready using training volume, RPE, age, and feedback. Training Load and recovery signals help you spot fatigue and adjust before overtraining. Training Score summarizes your consistency, balance, recovery, and progress, while insight cards surface useful signals. See your progress. Track exercise stats, muscle group trends, cardio performance, template progress, Training Score, VO2 Max, muscle balance, Training Load, plateau detection, smart weight recommendations, and training heatmaps. Clear charts and shareable summaries show what is improving and what needs attention. Track any cardio type with duration, distance, calories, and heart-rate data when available. Use interval cardio for HIIT sessions with configurable high and low phases, then review clearer post-cardio summaries after each session. With Apple Watch, you can start and track workouts from your wrist, see live workout metrics, log strength and cardio sessions, and keep your phone in your pocket. Genova syncs training, recovery, progress, and dashboard data between iPhone and Apple Watch, with Apple Watch complications for quick access.
