Ratings and Reviews
3 White Lights!
I originally started using this app after converting to kg from lb plates. It was good for not only helping me know how the bar should look, but also a comparison to the lb conversion that I was more used to.
I used it for a while before digging into the other tabs. I like to work up to a daily training max and then do down sets for additional volume. Here is where I found the app incredibly useful. Depending what intensity I want to work at for the day, I can easily calculate the drop I weight for the intensity level. Do 5 sets of 5 with a starting RPE of 7 or 3 sets of 5 starting at RPE 8. Even .5 increments can be entered.
The only thing I can thing of is keeping multiple bars in the inventory for switching between from 25kg squat bars, 30kg SSB to 20kg power bars. For now I just manually change the bar weight but find myself googling for the SSB weight since I have long times of not using it.
Great job on the app

Necessary for all gym members
Wow, I got this app because my friend posted a screenshot of the main page, his bar being loaded to show off his weight, thought it was cool. We are both competing powerlifters, and after playing around with the app for 5 minutes, and seeing all the features, this apps math and estimates have become a crucial part of my every day workout as my Season approaches for THSPA. Game changer, love it.
Crucial time saver
This app is incredibly useful when using the alternate unit system. Recently began using kilos with new plates and instead of relying on a chart, being able to load which plates, empty bar weight, and collars allowed the app to select the closest combination of the three to make my weight selection. This cut down on time and allowed me to get the work done. Great work, thank you!
