Your plan, your numbers, and your habits stay in sync across devices so you can execute without juggling five apps. Built for lifters & physique-focused athletes Structured workouts, progress you can see, and clarity on what “done” looks like each week. Whether you’re running a long cut, pushing a surplus for size, or cycling phases, Refactor is built around the reality of training blocks—not generic “10-minute abs.” Nutrition that matches your ambition Dial in calories and macros, log meals fast (including voice and photo flows where available), and keep daily targets aligned with your goals. When you adjust targets on web or phone, your snapshot stays consistent so you’re always working off one source of truth. Data that actually supports decisions Connect wearables and log biofeedback so recovery, sleep, and activity inform how you train and eat—not just how you feel in the moment. Coaching & accountability Check in with your coach, stay on top of milestones, and keep momentum when motivation dips. Recomp is built for people who want structure, not another empty tracker. For aggressive fat-loss goals—done responsibly If you’re committed to a hard cut or a major body recomposition, Refactor helps you run it like a project: clear targets, consistent logging, and visibility into progress—without pretending transformation is effortless. Who it’s for • Bodybuilders & strength athletes in prep or off-season • Serious gym-goers optimizing body composition • Anyone running disciplined fat-loss or recomp phases with real training volume Download Refactor Stop guessing.

Every workout tracker makes you stop and tap. Re-rack doesn't. Finish a set, say what you did — "bench press 225 for 6," "handstand push-ups for 3," "L-sit hold for 30 seconds" — and Re-rack understands it, logs it, and files it under the right exercise. No menus. No typing between sets. Just lift and talk. WHY LIFTERS SWITCH TO RE-RACK • Log by voice (or type). Say it in plain English and AI figures out the exercise, the weight, the reps — even the movement pattern. Prefer to type? One tap does that too. • Automatic PRs. Every set is checked against your bests. Search any lift to see your top sets and exactly when you hit them — so you always know the number to beat. • See yourself get stronger. Estimated 1RM, warm-up vs. working sets, and clean strength trends over time. No spreadsheets. • Know your weak points. Re-rack maps your training across the real movement patterns — horizontal & vertical push, horizontal & vertical pull, hips, knees, ankles, and core — so you can see where you're strong and where you're lagging. • Built for every style of training. Barbells, dumbbells, machines, cables, bodyweight reps, and calisthenics/isometric holds like planches and L-sits all log the same effortless way. • A home screen that's alive. The background tracks your real time of day — sunrise, drifting clouds, a moon at night. • Private by design. Your training history lives on your device. No account required. Export or back it up anytime. RE-RACK PRO Logging your sets and viewing PRs is free, forever. Re-rack Pro unlocks full movement analysis, complete history and trends, unlimited saved exercises, and backup. Start with a 3-day free trial. Stop breaking your focus to log. Just say it, and get back to lifting. — Re-rack Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. • Monthly and Annual options; pricing shown in the app. • A 3-day free trial is available; payment is charged to your Apple ID at the end of the trial. • Your subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Terms of Use: https://comfy-phoenix-9dea9b.netlify.app/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://comfy-phoenix-9dea9b.netlify.app/privacy.html
