Muscle Up G is the calisthenics app for people who refuse to plateau. Three structured 4-week programs take you from zero pull-ups to ten unbroken muscle-ups. Program 1 — Pull-Up Foundation. - From zero to ten clean pull-ups in four weeks. Assisted reps, negatives, and isometric holds, prescribed set by set. Program 2 — Bar to Muscle-Up. - Ten pull-ups isn't enough. False grip, transitions, explosive pulls, and the first strict muscle-up. Program 3 — Muscle-Up Mastery. - From one to ten unbroken. The conditioning, the volume, and the EMOMs to string sets. What's in the app • A workout player with a rest timer and auto-save on every set. • PR tracking — your pull-up max, your false-grip hold, your longest muscle-up set. • A daily habit log (water, meals, body weight) and a streak you'll want to keep. • A map of outdoor pull-up bars, parallel bars, and rings near you — anywhere in the world the data exists.

Helix Training

Train yourself like you have a coach. Helix is an app for self-coached athletes: AI builds a plan for your goal, workouts go straight to your Apple Watch, and your results, sleep and heart data sync from Apple Health on their own. One picture of your load: running, cycling, swimming, strength, HYROX. WHAT YOU GET • An AI plan for your goal. A 4-week plan built around your race, HYROX event or hybrid goal and your schedule. Generated in a minute — then make it yours. • One load score. A single load scale across every activity type, including strength work. Actuals close themselves from Apple Health (Strava connects too) — so you finally see how hard you really trained this week. • Fitness and fatigue. ATL, CTL and readiness show whether you're building form or digging a hole. Readiness accounts for sleep, resting heart rate and HRV from Apple Health. In plain language, not a chart you have to decode. • An AI assistant. Ask “why is my readiness 54?” or have it swap tomorrow's run for an indoor ride. The assistant knows your data and proposes every change as a before → after card — you apply it. YOUR PHONE AND WATCH DO THE ROUTINE FOR YOU • Apple Health syncs itself: type, time, distance, heart rate — and your morning data feeds straight into readiness. • Plans go to Apple Watch: intervals, alerts for your heart-rate zones, strength steps — in the native Workout app, no separate watch app needed. • Notifications that matter: your plan in the morning, your result logged after the workout. • All your analytics in your pocket: ATL/CTL, readiness, plan vs actual, weekly volume. Requires iOS 17+. Privacy policy: https://helixtraining.ai/en/privacy
