Peak is a full fitness app for people who want one place to plan workouts, train, log strength sets, track nutrition and recovery, build habits, and reach their peak. Most fitness apps track. Peak trains with you. WORKOUT ENHANCERS 
Make live workouts more engaging with built-in enhancers: HIIT timer, pace coach, cadence beeps, box breathing, motivational callouts, random challenges, workout dice, video player, and boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, and MMA-style strike callouts and combos. Great for running, boxing, cardio, HIIT, breathwork, and home workouts. WORKOUT TRACKING
 Start live sessions for running, cycling, walking, HIIT, boxing, strength training, yoga, rowing, hiking, jump rope, sports, recovery, and more — with heart rate, heart rate zones, distance, and live stats. Review history with duration, calories, heart rate summaries, and strength logs. Full HealthKit workout saving. APPLE WATCH
 Live workout tracking, heart rate, distance, and phone/watch syncing. Start on one device and stay connected. STRENGTH TRAINING 
Log exercises, sets, reps, weight, notes, form ratings, and training-to-failure details. Follow strength plans with rep targets, RIR, supersets, and warmups — push/pull/legs, upper/lower, full body, or your own structure. TOTAL WORKOUT PLANS 
Let Peak structure your week across cardio, strength, recovery, and rest days. Know what kind of workout to do today, and let logged workouts count toward progress. MICRO HIIT
 Short, guided bodyweight interval workouts that take only minutes. Use presets or build custom routines with reminders that launch straight into the session. NUTRITION
 Log food, calories, protein, carbs, fat, water, caffeine, and supplements. Search foods, scan barcodes, snap photos, save favorites, and track daily macro targets with meal history and calorie balance. AI FOOD LOGGING 
Describe what you ate in plain language or take a picture and get calories and macros instantly. Runs privately on your device — no waiting on a server. DAILY GOALS & HABITS 
Create daily checks for workouts, hydration, mobility, sleep routines, and more. Attach proof photos and review your daily check calendar. ACTION SCORE & STREAKS 
Your recent activity, recovery, and Health data — steps, active calories, workout minutes, HRV, resting heart rate, VO2 Max — distilled into one simple number compared against your personal baseline. HEALTH & RECOVERY DASHBOARD
 HRV trends, resting heart rate, workout minutes, sleep stages, training progress, daily goals, and plan guidance in one view. REACTION TIME TESTING 
Train and measure your reflexes: visual, haptic, audio, direction choice, anticipation, dual task, and more. Track speed, accuracy, and consistency over time. QUICK SPEECH
 Use voice commands to start workouts and log food, water, or supplements from the main action button. PERSONALIZED PROFILE
 Build a profile around your goals, experience, equipment, schedule, injuries, and HealthKit data so Peak feels built around your actual training. For runners who lift. For lifters who care about cardio. For boxing, HIIT, and home workout fans. Track your workouts, build your plan, log your meals, and reach your peak.
