Gym workouts planned around the other sports you do. Log your surf, padel, runs or rides, and the AI coach plans today's gym session around them. Or paste a plan you already have and train it set by set, with exercise guidance, set tracking and rest timers. MAKE YOUR PLAN USEFUL Create a single session or a multi-day program for your goals, available equipment and training routine. Import a plan from a chat or your notes.

A weight specified in your plan takes priority. Adjust targets with simple buttons or reset them to the plan. Open available step-by-step technique guides from the exercise screen. KEEP YOUR TRAINING MOVING Use rest timers, timed exercises and the interval timer for work/rest rounds. Pause and resume your session. Follow active timers on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.
