Attempt for coaches · a demo

Watch the coaching loop

One coach, one athlete, one block. An invite code, the athlete's record already on file, the spreadsheet you already use, the grid, and a check-in. Everything below is a fixture; the e1RM arithmetic is the workspace's own.

Start free

Meets are the other half. Watch a meet run.

A coach invites an athlete

A name and an email make a code. Read it out at the gym or send the link; the athlete types it under My coach and lands on your roster with their competition record already attached.

What the coach sees

Nothing to type twice. The athlete's page in the workspace opens with their class, their federation, every meet on record and their bests, and asks one question: does the programming live here, or in the spreadsheet you already use.

Import the spreadsheet

Drop the file you already use. Attempt detects the layout, including the week grid most powerlifting coaches actually hand over, reads every set with its RPE and load, and turns the top sets into an e1RM the athlete's page can track.

Reading Triples Block.xlsx

xlsx or csv · up to 12 sheets

What is on the right is the importer, run on this file in your browser. The layout, the columns and the week count are what it worked out — nothing there was typed in by us, and the mapping it learns is remembered for the next block.

Weeks across, days down, one line per prescription: a top set and its backoffs, in RPE or in percent. Copy a week forward and change what changed. The athlete opens their phone and sees today, with the loads already worked out from their numbers.
