As a coach, you've likely used your client's 1 rep max to calculate their training weight. This is a straightforward way to program workouts, but can eat up a lot of time if you have to do it manually!

That’s why we added an auto-progression feature to enable easy percentage-based training. This allows you to program workouts based off your client's 1RM instantly. 

We use the Epley Method for the calculation.

How to use 1RM%

Choose a client and go to their training calendar.

  1. Add an exercise or choose an existing exercise.

  2. Click Use %.

  3. Add the % of 1 RM you’d like to program.

  4. The weight will auto-complete based on past workouts.

It’s as simple as that. And as your clients hit new PRs, their programming will continue to adjust automatically.

** Note: At least one workout using a given exercise must be logged in order to use this feature. Or else, you can manually update the client's 1RM for the exercise.
