Most workout apps hand you the same plan as everyone else. Adapt doesn't. Adapt uses AI to read your actual body — from four photos — then builds a multi-week workout plan made for your shape, your goals, and your schedule. As you change, your plan changes with you. And when you're ready to dial in what you eat, Adapt tracks your nutrition against daily targets built from the very same body data — so training and eating finally pull in the same direction. HOW IT WORKS 1. Snap four photos. Adapt's AI analyzes your body composition, posture, and proportions — a real starting point, not a guess. 2. Get your plan. A personalized multi-week program built around your experience level, available days, session length, and equipment — at home or in the gym. 3. Train with guidance. Follow each workout set by set, with demo videos, rest timers, and live logging. 4. Fuel your training. Log meals by photo, search, or barcode and hit daily calorie and macro targets built from your body analysis. 5. Re-analyze and adapt. Every few weeks, take four new photos. Adapt sees what changed and evolves your plan so you never plateau. WHAT YOU GET • AI body analysis — composition, symmetry, and focus areas read straight from your photos • Personalized multi-week plans — built for your body, goals, and real-life schedule • A library of 800+ exercises — every move with step-by-step instructions and demos • AI coach chat — ask about form, swap exercises, or adjust your plan in plain language • AI nutrition tracking — log food by photo, USDA search, or barcode, and save your go-to meals • Smart daily targets — calorie and macro goals auto-tuned to your body analysis and goals • Workout logging — track sets, reps, weight, and effort with a built-in rest timer • Progress tracking — see your body change with side-by-side comparisons and trends • Streaks & calendar — a training heatmap that keeps you consistent • Home Screen & Lock Screen widgets — today's workout, always one glance away • Flexible by design — home or gym, minimal or full equipment, 3 to 7 days a week FREE TO START Your first body analysis and your first AI workout plan are free — no account needed to begin.
