From setup to finished workout
How ReadySetLift works
ReadySetLift starts with what you want to accomplish and what is practical today. It then builds a complete strength workout you can review before you begin.
1. Choose the kind of workout you need
Start with a focused muscle workout or a total-body session. Choose a goal, intensity, available time, and workout format so the plan fits the session you actually have time to complete.
ReadySetLift supports practical strength goals and guided formats without requiring an account or a network connection for its built-in planning.
2. Tell ReadySetLift what is available today
Select the equipment you can use, from body weight, bands, and dumbbells to common gym equipment such as machines, cables, barbells, benches, kettlebells, pull-up bars, suspension trainers, and medicine balls.
You can also add practical constraints such as no floor work, low impact, no jumping, a small space, quiet movement, standing only, or beginner-friendly choices.
3. Account for readiness and sore areas
Mark focus areas as ready, go easy, sore, or avoid. ReadySetLift uses those choices as workout-planning constraints rather than treating them as a diagnosis or medical recommendation.
4. Build and review a complete plan
ReadySetLift's built-in rules create the workout on every supported device. The preview shows the exercise order, prescriptions, rest guidance, equipment, and instructions before you start.
When a compatible, prevalidated alternative is available, you can swap an exercise without rebuilding the entire workout. If you selected Apple Intelligence refinement on an eligible device, ReadySetLift may then refine approved exercise choices before showing the workout in Preview.
5. Follow the workout
Work through each exercise, track sets and actual reps, load, or time, and use the workout timer behavior that matches the selected format. ReadySetLift preserves completed work and can recover an active session locally after an interruption.
6. Finish and remember what you did
Completed workouts are saved in local Recent Workouts history. Exercise cards can use that history to show conservative last-used and best-used hints without overwriting the values you enter for the current workout.
