Progress & insights

Progress — the strength tab, with your best lift of the week and your training zone

The Progress tab turns your logged sessions into trends. Five views run along the top: STR, VOL, BODY, PAT, and AI.

STR — strength

The default view, and the densest. It stacks several cards:

  • Best lift this week — your standout set, with its estimated 1-rep max (e1RM) worked out for you.
  • Training zone — what share of your working sets landed in the hypertrophy sweet spot (RIR 1–3) versus strength (RIR 0–1) or junk volume (RIR 4+).
  • Overload momentum and e1RM trajectory — slope-fitted across weeks, so you can tell progressing from flat from sliding.
  • Personal records — every lift's best, with how long it's been since you beat it.

The PR table — each lift's best set, its e1RM, and how long since you beat it

A lift that hasn't moved is tagged STALLED, with the days since your last PR next to it. That's the cue to swap a variation or run a deload rather than grind the same weight again.

Exercise rotation

Exercise rotation — muscle groups running the same movement every session

A card most people miss. It watches how many different exercises you use per muscle group and flags the ones running STALE — the same lift, session after session. Low rotation is one of the quieter causes of a plateau, and this is where you'd catch it.

VOL — volume

The muscle-balance map — every muscle scored against its minimum effective volume

Weekly training volume over time, plus the muscle-balance map: a front-and-back body diagram with each muscle coloured by where its weekly sets fall — ON TARGET, BELOW MEV, or ABOVE MRV. Tap any muscle for the detail behind its score.

BODY — bodyweight & wellness

The body tab — bodyweight trend, biggest movers, and wellness trends from your check-ins

Bodyweight trend, biggest movers across your tracked measurements over 30 days, and wellness trends — sleep, stress, energy, and mood pulled from your daily check-ins.

These need a little history before they draw anything: three or more weigh-ins for the bodyweight trend, and two or more readings on a body part before it can be a "mover". Until then each card tells you exactly what it's waiting for.

PAT — patterns

Correlations BurnGauge detects between your inputs and your performance — and, with a wearable connected, how sleep, HRV, and activity relate to your training. These also surface as proactive home-screen alerts.

Patterns need four weeks of workouts and check-ins before they mean anything, and the card shows your progress toward that (1 / 4 WEEKS) rather than pretending to a conclusion it can't support.

AI — coach insights

The AI tab — the insight viewer and your coach feed

The insight viewer and your coach feed — see AI Coach.


BODY, PAT, and AI are part of Pro. On the free tier each shows what it would give you and an upgrade route, rather than hiding entirely.
