SwoleX is the workout app built for lifters who actually show up. Log your training, share it to your feed, and watch others hit your exact routine — with weights automatically scaled to their own history. That's the SwoleX loop: post a workout, someone taps DO WORKOUT, and they're training your program in seconds. KNOW BEFORE YOU LIFT Connect Apple Health and SwoleX scores your readiness each morning from your sleep, resting heart rate and HRV, against your own baseline. Load and Form tell you whether to push or back off, and every workout shows your heart rate set by set, time in zone and recovery between sets. TRACK EVERY LIFT Log sets, reps and weight fast, between sets. Your history builds automatically into a personal performance record with streaks, PRs, and volume charts. EAT LIKE YOU TRAIN Log food in seconds — search the food library or pull from your saved My Foods. Pick a diet style — Balanced, High Protein, Keto, Low Carb, Mediterranean, Endurance, or Zone — add your goal and activity level, and SwoleX sets your daily calorie and macro targets for you. Pro adds barcode scanning and describe-a-meal AI that breaks down the macros for you. MEAL PLANS BUILT AROUND YOUR MACROS Tell Kevin your diet style and the foods you eat, pick which meals to plan, and get a multi-day plan with a grocery list in real shopping quantities. Log an item, a meal or the whole day, or export the plan as a PDF. TRAIN WITH KEVIN — YOUR AI STRENGTH COACH Tap TRAIN WITH KEVIN and he assembles a session tailored to your training history, goals, and how you're feeling that day. Every set is pre-scaled to your actual strength — no guessing, no math. ASK KEVIN — AND GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER Kevin reads your log, so ask him about it. "Why has my incline bench gone backwards?" He checks your real sets, your weekly volume and your gym's equipment, then answers with the numbers in front of him — and if the fix is a whole day, he builds it on the spot. DO WORKOUTS FROM THE FEED Every post in SwoleX is executable. See a chest day you like? Tap DO WORKOUT and run it yourself — weights automatically adjust to your level. Your results link back to the original, giving the creator credit and building their following. LIFT TOGETHER, LIVE Training with someone? Start a live session and invite them. You each run the same workout with weights scaled to your own strength, so you're on the same exercise without lifting the same numbers. Watch each other's sets land live, and finish on a shared recap crediting everyone. PROGRAMS & PREMIUM CONTENT Structured programs from coaches and creators: splits, strength blocks and circuits, run straight from the app. SHARE YOUR WINS Auto-generated share cards for Instagram Stories, TikTok and Snapchat.
