Stop running two apps. Coachly tracks your workouts AND your macros in one place, with an AI coach that adapts your training to the sets you logged and your calories to how your weight is moving. For lifters who want lean bulks, structured cuts, or a strength block without juggling three subscriptions. A 5-star review on the App Store. "Coachly has took my training to a new level" - G Mul WHAT YOU GET Structured training programs Eight-week phases, with "Week 4 of 8" and a progress bar on screen. Upper/Lower, Push/Pull/Legs, Full Body or Bro Split, your pick and changeable later. Each session gets one stimulus: heavy strength, hypertrophy or higher-rep volume, mixed per your goal and split. Set counts are checked against published per-muscle volume bands. Sessions that fit the time you have Say you have 45 minutes and the session is built to fit. Coachly prices every set and rest period, trims what will not fit, and shows the real figure, not the one you typed. Full gym, dumbbells only, or nothing: it prescribes only kit you own. Progression you can argue with Every lift arrives with a load, a rep range and the reason for both. Hit your reps clean and it goes up. Grind them and it holds. Stall for weeks and it deloads. Return from time off and it holds your working weight. Change a rep range and it reprices the session. Real macro tracking Hit your protein target, log meals fast. Barcode scan, food search, favourites, and a grams-or-portions picker that remembers last time. The numbers add up: rows to the meal header, meals to the calorie ring. Calories that move on the scale, not on a hunch Coachly reads your bodyweight trend against your goal every two weeks and adjusts when the trend holds. Protein holds; carbs take the change. With the scale flat and your steps averaging under 8,000 a day, it asks you to walk more before it cuts your food. Pick your goal and your pace Lose Fat, Bulk or Get Strong, each at three paces, plus Maintenance. Change goal mid-block and your calories ramp across weeks instead of jumping in a day. A coach that already has your numbers Ask "should I push today" and the answer carries your logged sets, volume per muscle, weeks since your last deload, this week's macro averages and how you rated your energy and sleep on Monday. Apple Health and Apple Watch Live heart rate on screen during the session. Steps drive your daily target, your streak and the calorie call above. Sleep and resting heart rate drive the recovery bars in Stats. It shows its working Every calorie and protein method cites its source, linked: Mifflin-St Jeor, Cunningham, Frankenfield, the ISSN position stand. WHO IT'S FOR - Intermediate to advanced lifters, 4-6 sessions a week, on a cut, lean bulk or strength block PRICING Coachly Pro is one subscription, monthly or yearly, at the price shown on this page for your country.
