LIFT is a hypertrophy coach that autoregulates your training volume and tells you why it changes. Every week, in plain language. Most apps hand you a fixed program. LIFT watches what you actually log and how each session felt, then adjusts your sets per muscle between the least that makes it grow and the most you can recover from: more where you're recovering well, steady where you're already working hard, less where you're digging a hole. Sharp joint pain caps volume and flags a swap. The difference: it's a glass box. Every change ships with the reason behind it, drawn from your own numbers. No mystery "AI," no black box. • Autoregulated volume per muscle, from your logged sets + quick post-session feedback (soreness, pump, workload, joint pain) • Double progression on load and reps, from how many reps you had left after your last set • 2–6 day programs that build around your schedule and equipment • A fast, no-nonsense logging screen and inline rest timer • Swap any exercise. Suggestions come in the order the plan builds from, with what your equipment can do first, and nothing is locked • See exactly where each muscle sits on its volume band, and the receipts that set this week's target • Optional Apple Health export (write-only). LIFT never reads your Health data • Private iCloud backup LIFT Pro unlocks the full experience with a 14-day free trial. Monthly or annual; cancel anytime.
