GYMPULSED helps you stay consistent at the gym through 1v1 accountability challenges with a linked partner. You and your gym partner agree on the rules together: weekly sessions, gym location, and the amount per missed session. Each of you authorizes a challenge deposit. You check in at the gym, track progress together, and at the end of the period settlement applies the rules you both accepted. Each challenge is between two linked partners — outcomes follow your agreed rules and check-ins, not chance. HOW IT WORKS • Link one partner via invite code • Create a challenge together: sessions per week, gym, and amount per missed session • Both partners review and accept the same rules before the challenge starts • Each partner authorizes their own challenge deposit • Check in at the gym (location verification) • At challenge end, settlement calculates outcomes between the two of you from verified check-ins FEATURES (Subscription required) Partner accountability • One linked partner per challenge • Shared weekly tracker — your progress and your partner’s • Rules and deposit amounts shown to both partners before you confirm Gym check-in • Location-based attendance verification • Check-in windows and rules shown before activation Challenges • 1v1 format between linked partners • Typical duration: 7 days • Transparent rules accepted by both partners before start Payouts • Secure payments via Stripe • Set up your bank details to receive transfers from challenge settlement • View past challenge outcomes WHY IT WORKS You’re not training alone. Your partner counts on you, you count on them, and the rules you set together make consistency harder to ignore. SAFE & TRANSPARENT • Rules agreed by both partners before the challenge activates • Deposits are per challenge and settled via Stripe • Subscription is managed in the App Store • Gym check-ins use location to verify attendance, as shown in the app before you confirm • For users aged 18 and over only Terms of use: https://www.gympulsed.com/terms
