A strength coach that reads every set you log and tells you what to push next — per exercise, per set. Other trackers just record; Squatly moves them forward. Ask it anything, and the answer comes from your real training, with the reasoning shown right in your data. Your plan. Your progress. FAST LOGGING, BUILT FOR BETWEEN SETS - Ghost sets prefill your last performance, so you confirm and go. - A per-set rest timer counts down on its own, so your next set starts on time. - Log RPE in a tap to capture how hard each set really felt. - 800+ exercises, warmup, working, drop, and myo-rep set types, and offline-first logging that works with no signal and syncs when you're back. A COACH THAT DRIVES YOUR PLAN FORWARD (PRO) The coach reads your full logged history and moves your plan forward. When the work starts getting easy, it tells you to add weight — before you stall, not after. Ask it anything — what to push next, whether to add volume or hold steady, how to structure your week — and the answer comes grounded in your own logged numbers, with the reasoning shown right in your data. Not a plan you follow blind: a coach that explains itself. You stay in control: it recommends, you decide. LIVE COACHING BETWEEN SETS (PRO) After a working set, the coach weighs how today has gone, your program week, any injuries you've flagged, your recent history on that lift and, with Apple Health, your recovery. When your next set calls for a change, you get one plain line and the exact numbers: "You missed your rep target at that weight. Drop to 270 for 5 reps." One decision can change every remaining set of the exercise, and ramps, back-off sets and AMRAP finishers keep their shape. Press and hold to accept. Undo puts back the sets you haven't logged yet. A rest nudge tells you when your rest runs long, even on your lock screen. GROUNDED IN YOUR NUMBERS Every workout you finish runs through Squatly's training engines — volume, estimated 1RM, fatigue, strength tiers, progression, mesocycle position, and your Squatly Score, one number that answers "how am I actually doing?" The coach reads all of it, so what it tells you is based on your real training. STRUCTURED PROGRAMS Follow a program day by day. The coach adapts the next session to how the last one went, so the plan keeps moving with you. PROGRESS YOU CAN SEE Personal records log themselves. Watch per-muscle volume and strength tiers climb over time, keep an eye on fatigue and readiness, and track body weight, measurements, and progress photos. APPLE HEALTH AND PRIVACY Squatly can write your completed workouts and body weight to Apple Health. With your permission, it can also read sleep, recovery and outside training.
