Fortera is a strength-training journal that records what actually happened in your session — not a rough guess. Most trackers give you one number: total time. This one builds a real timeline: when each set started, how long you were under load, how long you truly rested, what your heart rate did. Every number on your charts comes from that timeline. APPLE WATCH COMPANION Run the session from your wrist: pick the next exercise, log a set, start the rest timer with a haptic countdown, watch live heart rate. The watch counts reps from your wrist movement and asks you to confirm. It keeps working while your phone is in the locker and syncs back when they meet again. Watch-face complications and Smart Stack widgets start a workout in one tap, and your stats and body-weight logging are on the wrist too. SMART PROGRAMMING Ready-made programs, a calendar planner and a generator that builds a session around the muscles you have recovered. Weights follow your history and equipment: barbell, dumbbells, machines or cables. • Periodization in blocks: the app works out your weights and tells you when to deload • Guided workout: one exercise per screen, with a warm-up ladder built from your working weight • An 8-week roadmap, home versions of a workout, a safe mode for beginners and one-tap exercise swaps AI COACH Optional and built in: • Programs built from your goal, equipment and history • A second opinion on your working weight, with the reasoning • Form check: record a set, get feedback on your technique Free within a monthly allowance shown on the AI screen. It runs only when you ask for it; nothing is sent otherwise. CARDIO TOO Treadmill, bike, rower, elliptical, stepper and walking — inside your workout, from the phone or the watch. Distance, steps and calories come from Apple Health automatically. FOR WOMEN Optional cycle tracking suggests effort and volume for your phase and asks before adjusting a workout. Turn it on in your profile. SEE REAL PROGRESS • Personal records and estimated 1RM for every exercise • Volume, tonnage and time-under-load charts • Body measurements by zone, left and right apart, and progress photos • Recovery map: which muscles are still fatigued • Food diary with calorie and macro targets • Streaks, lifetime totals and badges • Timeline analytics: workout density, real rest against the plan, how rest length changes your next set • History export to CSV, and import from a Strong, Hevy or FitNotes CSV export (third-party apps; Fortera is not affiliated with or endorsed by them) BUILT FOR THE GYM FLOOR • Plate calculator for each side of the bar • Automatic warm-up sets • Rest timer with notifications • Smart reminders: workout day, the evening before, a missed or unfinished workout • 160+ exercises with photos, step-by-step instructions and technique videos, plus your own custom exercises.

COMMUNITY Share a workout as a card, follow friends in the feed and cheer them on. Report and block are one tap away. You can also confirm your phone number with a code sent through Telegram, a third-party service; Fortera is not affiliated with it. APPLE HEALTH Fortera reads your steps, active energy, sleep and body weight from Apple Health, and writes every finished workout back with calories and distance; workouts recorded on Apple Watch also carry heart rate. OFFLINE FIRST Everything works offline. An optional account syncs your data across iPhone and Apple Watch.
