Everything it does,
and where it stops.

Eight things, coaching first, with the daily ceilings written next to them rather than discovered later.

Your coach

Maya or Marcus, both of whom have already read your logs.

What it does: Answers with your program, training history, plates and form checks in view. Send a photo of a meal and it proposes the log. Anything that changes your data is proposed first and only applied when you tap Confirm.
What it needs: Nothing beyond using the app — context comes from what is already logged.
Limits: 20 messages a day free · unlimited on Premium

Human coach

For the questions software should not be the last word on.

What it does: A 30-minute call with a real coach — form, programming or nutrition — who has your training and nutrition history open in front of them.
What it needs: Booking a slot in the app.
Limits: Premium only · 2 a month

Programs

A weekly plan shaped around the days you actually train, not an idealised week.

What it does: Builds a plan from your goal, experience and available days, with week-one loads set from your bodyweight and level. Miss a day and the week reshuffles rather than breaking.
What it needs: A few questions at setup. Changeable any time.
Limits: No limit

Form check

The whole clip is analysed as motion, so depth, tempo and bar path survive — none of which a single frame can give you.

What it does: Returns a score, what held up, and corrections ranked by severity. Reps, tempo and range of motion are read from the footage.
What it needs: One set filmed side-on, whole body in frame, decent light. One to three reps is plenty.
Limits: 1 a day free · 5 a day on Premium · 10–30s per clip

Nutrition

Photograph the plate or type it in — both end up in the same daily total.

What it does: Estimates calories and macros from a photo, totals them against a target built from your sex, age, weight, goal and training days.
What it needs: A reasonably lit photo of the meal, or thirty seconds of typing.
Limits: 3 scans a day free · 20 on Premium · manual entry unlimited

Workout logging

Logged set by set, because a workout marked "done" tells you nothing a month later.

What it does: Tracks weight and reps per set, estimated 1RM, weekly volume and personal records. Bodyweight lifts progress on reps instead of load.
What it needs: Tapping in your sets as you go.
Limits: No limit

Exercise library

Every movement has a demo video, so you can see the pattern before you load it.

What it does: Browse by muscle group, watch the demo, then send it straight into a session.
What it needs: Nothing. Demos are cached after the first play and work offline after that.
Limits: 395 exercises · no limit

Body check

An occasional read on what is developing and what to prioritise next.

What it does: Plain-language feedback on physique progress from a photo you take yourself.
What it needs: A full-body photo, consistent lighting and distance if you want to compare over time.
Limits: 1 a week free · 1 a day on Premium
