BenchPress AI turns your iPhone into a real-time bench press tracking and training tool. Place your iPhone behind your head on a stable tripod, start your set, and let BenchPress AI track your bench press performance while you lift. Monitor repetitions, bar movement, bar speed, tilt, shoulder balance, workout history, ranks, leaderboards, and collectible rewards. Whether you are working toward a new personal record, improving your bar path, or looking for a better way to track every set, BenchPress AI gives you immediate workout feedback and long-term progress tracking in one focused app. KEY FEATURES REAL-TIME BENCH PRESS TRACKING Use your iPhone camera to track your bench press movement and receive feedback while completing your set. AUTOMATIC REP COUNTING Automatically count completed repetitions so you can focus on lifting instead of manually logging every rep. BAR SPEED AND TILT FEEDBACK View bar speed and tilt indicators to better understand how your repetitions move throughout each set. SHOULDER BALANCE FEEDBACK Receive feedback when one side appears lower or uneven, helping you stay more aware of your bench press position. WORKOUT HISTORY Save your training sessions and review your weight, repetitions, total volume, scores, and set performance over time. PROGRESS TRACKING Review previous workouts and track changes in strength, volume, consistency, and training activity. RANKS AND GRIND SCORE Stay motivated with a ranking system based on your training activity, consistency, volume, and performance. LEADERBOARDS Compare your grind score, estimated one-repetition maximum, training volume, streak, and other workout statistics with other lifters. COLLECTIBLE REWARD PACKS Complete sets, reach training targets, and unlock collectible reward packs and cards as you progress. BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR BENCH PRESS BenchPress AI focuses on one lift: the bench press. The experience is designed around rep tracking, bar movement, form awareness, workout history, and strength progress. SUBSCRIPTIONS BenchPress AI may offer automatically renewing monthly and yearly subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account after purchase confirmation. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. You can manage or cancel your subscription through your Apple ID subscription settings. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION BenchPress AI is a fitness and workout tracking tool. It is not a medical device, physical therapy tool, professional coaching replacement, emergency safety system, or injury prevention system. Tracking results and feedback may be inaccurate, delayed, incomplete, or unavailable. Do not rely solely on the app when making training or safety decisions. Always lift safely, use appropriate equipment, secure your phone and tripod, and use a qualified spotter or properly positioned safety arms when bench pressing heavy weight.
