Features
Everything a serious lifter needs. Nothing they don't.
Free lifting on iOS, Android, and web. Plus adds nutrition and AI. Coach and Coach Pro sit alongside — never on top of — the lifter's account. Pick a section:
Logging
Set logging that keeps up with the working set
A set is one tap. Not a modal, not a bottom sheet, not a network round-trip. Weight and reps drop into place from your last set; edit them or don't.
Rest timers auto-start and buzz your wrist. Between-set edits (weight, reps, notes, RPE) commit locally and hop the queue on the next sync.
- Backdated log-catching for missed sets
- RPE, RIR, % of 1RM, tempo, and rest — all optional
- Bar-drop detection turns rest timers on automatically
- Voice logging when your hands are chalked
Library
873 exercises. 127 built-in programs. Or roll your own.
The library ships with every exercise you actually reach for. Barbell, dumbbell, machine, cable, kettlebell, bodyweight — plus the variations coaches program.
Programs cover linear progression, block periodization, DUP, conjugate, powerbuilding, hypertrophy-first, running/lifting hybrids, and hitting-a-wall reset templates.
- 873 seed exercises with muscle + equipment metadata
- 127 templates you can start today or fork tomorrow
- Import Trainerize and TrueCoach CSVs (day one)
- Program builder handles supersets, circuits, and pyramid schemes
Apple Watch
A Watch app that replaces your phone in the rack
Start, log, and finish a whole workout without touching your phone. Digital-crown-scroll the plate math, tap once to log, feel the haptic when rest is up.
The Watch app is standalone. If HealthKit sharing is on, workout summaries roll into Health so your Fitness rings actually reflect training.
- Native standalone Watch app — no phone required in-gym
- Rest-timer haptics tuned so you feel them under a hoodie
- HealthKit workout summaries when you opt in
- One-tap plate math for barbell lifts
Coach layer
Coaching with permission toggles, not a monitor mode
When you attach a coach, they see assigned work, adherence, check-ins, and messages — no more, no less. Progress photos, food-log detail, self-directed workouts, sleep, and wearables are permission toggles that live in your account, not their dashboard.
Enforced server-side. A UI hide isn't privacy; a database rule is. Disconnect in one tap. A 30-day wind-down keeps you in the app while everything gets exported.
- Six permission toggles the client owns (photos, food, workouts, sleep, wearables, notes)
- One batched daily digest for coaches — not 40 pushes
- Disconnect is a client-side action; wind-down runs 30 days
- .maxtopia export at any point during wind-down
Nutrition (Plus)
Nutrition that admits when it's guessing
Search, barcode scan, meal-photo macros, USDA FoodData Central lookups. When AI estimates macros from a photo, it labels the estimate as such and shows its confidence.
Log a meal in three taps. Copy last week's Tuesday breakfast forward. Water and micros stay lightweight — no forced macronutrient religion.
- Barcode scanner + USDA FDC + custom foods
- Meal-photo macro estimation (Plus) with confidence tags
- Copy-forward meals, favorites, quick add
- Optional water, sleep, weight — not required
AI (Plus)
AI that helps, not spies
Every AI feature has a per-account quota, a kill switch, and full telemetry. Cache hits are free. The gateway logs what was called, what came back, and what it cost.
Nothing goes to a third-party model without the account being on Plus and the feature being on. Free-tier accounts never touch AI endpoints.
- Meal-photo macros, program generation, exercise substitution
- Voice-to-set logging, barcode-miss label OCR
- Kill switches per feature, per account, and global
- Quotas visible to the user; no surprise cutoffs
Sync engine
Sync that never bothers you
Zero polling. Silent-push wake. Last-write-wins with a visible conflict log. Log a set on your phone and it's on the web app in seconds.
A day of workouts syncs in under a second on 4G. No spinners, no "please wait", no "this workout failed to save".
- Watermarks per resource: session, program, food, media
- Conflict log — see what changed and where
- Silent-push wake so you rarely see a syncing indicator
- Sub-second sync for a day of logs on a 4G connection
Portability
Portable .maxtopia files
Programs and history round-trip as byte-identical .maxtopia files. Send one to anyone through any app — iMessage, email, AirDrop. Anyone else with a .maxtopia importer can read it, whether they use us or not.
The format spec is public and licensed CC0. We'd rather compete on the app than on lock-in.
- Program export → import round-trip is byte-identical
- Format is documented and CC0-licensed
- Import from Trainerize and TrueCoach CSVs on day one
- One-tap full export from Settings → Data

The web client opens in your browser — no install, no wait. The native apps ship next.
