The app that coaches, not just counts. Augment is a workout tracker built by a certified personal trainer who got tired of apps that log sets but don't help you get stronger. It tracks your training, remembers what you lifted last time, and tells you when it's time to push harder - based on real exercise science, not arbitrary rules. PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD ENGINE Stop guessing when to add weight. Augment tracks your performance across workouts using volume landmarks (MEV/MRV) from evidence-based training science. It tells you when to increase load, add sets, or take a deload - automatically. FAST, SMART LOGGING - Start from a saved plan or go freeform - same clean card-based UI - Auto-populates weight and reps from your last workout - Built-in rest timer between sets - Supersets, circuits, EMOM, Tabata, and intervals - Plate calculator with competition plate colors - Voice dictation for workout notes TRACK EVERYTHING - Workout history with weekly volume charts - Per-exercise stats and progression trends - RPE tracking per set - 180+ exercises across 8 categories - Manual entry and XLSX import FOR TRAINERS Manage multiple clients from one account.
