Program overview

After entering competition date, would be good to see what the created program roughly looks like in terms of volume and intensity changes. Also would be good to see what the week would look like so you know if you need to bring certain equipment to the gym.

    The program does not exist as a prewritten plan, only the rough goals are known. Volume and intensity generally want to trend up over time but there will be day-to-day fluctuations according to your wellness. Stay healthy and things will take their natural course of rising over time.

    Is there a way of telling the app how many days I want to train in the week or does it adjust based on what you input?

    Related to this, I’d love if the app would give me am estimated outline of the entire workout for the day. Like, based off the past month, coach knows he’s going to give me a 14 set bench day today if everything goes well, but I have no idea. I just have to keep entering sets until finally 14 are done.

    I like surprises, but I also really like having an idea of the plan. On-the-fly adjustments would still be used, but maybe a greyed-out summary of the day’s plan while going in.

    In what situation are you getting your assigned sets extended out to 14 sets? I can see that happening in PPL sets to failure when you aren’t actually going to failure. In that case the app adds another set until you get there.

    Honestly, I don’t remember. This happened before I lost all my data due to phone reset. I am on PPL though, so that could’ve been the case. I also might have started at 10lbs under the assigned weight because I just didn’t feel I had that in me that day.

    Ok. The target for PPL weight gain is 3 sets to failure on each exercise. The fewer sets you do overall the better. So try to get your 3 and get out. An RPE 9 is also OK too.
