How it works

From eight questions to a training year

What actually happens between downloading the app and being three blocks into a season — and what the app is doing underneath while you train.

Setup

The first ten minutes

Your sport, or your style

Twelve sports, each with its own template — or general fitness, bodybuilding or bodyweight if you do not play one. This decides the sessions, the qualities trained, the prehab and the testing battery.

Your goal and training age

Build muscle, lose fat, get stronger, get fitter or sport performance — and beginner, intermediate or advanced. These set how volume is balanced and how aggressively it progresses.

Your week

How many days you have, how long a session can be, which nights your team trains, and which days you are free for gym and for running. Team nights and game day are protected; everything else is placed around them.

Your equipment and your body

Full gym, dumbbells, bodyweight or bands — plus any individual kit you do not have, and any current injuries. Anything requiring equipment you have excluded is swapped automatically.

A testing session

Every program opens with one: five numbers on your sport’s own battery. They set your starting weights and your conditioning paces, so nothing in week one is a guess.

Every four weeks

The loop that makes it a program rather than a workout list

A program that never measures anything cannot know whether it worked. Every four weeks the same five tests are re-run under the same conditions, and the results go back in.

The test
One conditioning test — the one your own plan is built around — plus two upper-body and two lower-body tests chosen to match your sport.
What it changes
A tested one-rep max re-prices every related exercise across the program. A conditioning result resets the paces in your running plan.
What it displaces
The testing session replaces a session rather than being added on top, and the week it displaced can be restored.
If you cannot do a test
The battery substitutes based on your equipment, and a 3RM is accepted anywhere a 1RM is — nobody should be maxing out alone.
