Set Tracking · Zero Friction

Periodized Training That Tracks Itself.

You don't need another tracker. You need a system where logging is a side effect of doing the workout, not a second job after it.

Sound familiar

You've tried the trackers. Strong, Hevy, spreadsheets, notes apps, whatever. They all do the same thing: ask you to type numbers into boxes.

That works for the first two weeks. Then you're mid-set, 85% of your max is on the bar, and the last thing you want to do is tap through three screens to log what just happened.

“I've tried Strong, Hevy, spreadsheets, Apple Notes. They all ask me to type numbers while I'm trying to train. By week 3, my log is fiction.”
— r/weightroom

So you start rounding. Or logging after the session from memory. Or skipping the accessory work because who's going to type in four sets of lateral raises. By the end of the block, your training log is fiction.

“I stopped logging accessories because who's going to enter four sets of lateral raises between rest periods? Now I have no idea what volume I actually ran last block.”
— r/fitness

“The best tracker is the one you actually use. The problem is I stop using all of them by week 4.”
— r/weightroom

The problem isn't discipline. The problem is the interface.

The pattern

Why Every Tracker Fails The Same Way.

They Treat Logging As The Activity

Open app, select exercise, enter weight, enter reps, tap save. Four steps per set, five sets per exercise, six exercises per session. That's 120 taps minimum. You're not training. You're doing data entry with barbells.

They Don't Know What You Planned To Do

Strong and Hevy track what happened. They have no concept of what was supposed to happen. When you skip a set or swap an exercise, the log doesn't know the difference between "I chose to deviate" and "this is what I always do."

They Reset Every Block

Your training log from last mesocycle is a wall of numbers. There's no summary, no trends, no "here's what changed and why." Starting a new block means scrolling through history and trying to remember context that was never recorded.

They Optimize For Logging, Not For Training

The best session tracking system is one where the log is a side effect of doing the workout. You finish a set, you tap complete, you move on. The system captures the data. You never feel like you're being asked to log.

The math

What Changes When Tracking Gets Out Of The Way.

120 taps per session × 5 sessions per week × 8 weeks = 4,800 manual inputs per block.

That's not tracking. That's a second job.

Fire Your Coach reduces this to one tap per set. Finish, tap, move on. Weight cascades automatically. Previous session numbers are already loaded. Deviations are captured by the system, not typed by you.

The result: your training log is complete at the end of every session, not because you were disciplined about data entry, but because the system captured it while you were focused on the work.

Tracking that stays out of the way

Log Less. Know More.

Tap To Complete, Not Type To Log

Finish a set, tap the checkmark. Weight cascades to remaining sets automatically. Rest timer starts. You're already focused on the next set before the data hits the database.

Previous Weights, Already There

What you lifted last session shows up as a reference. No scrolling through history. No "what did I do last time?" Just the number, right where you need it.

Deviations Tracked, Not Typed

Swap an exercise because equipment was taken? The system records the deviation, the reason, and adjusts the training context. You made a decision. The system remembers it. You didn't have to write a paragraph about it.

Who this is for

Roster & Cuts.

Built for you if

You've tried multiple trackers and abandoned all of them within a month
You care about training data but hate the process of collecting it
You run periodized programs and want plan-vs-actual comparison, not just a log
You want previous weights showing up automatically without scrolling through history

Not for you if

You enjoy detailed manual logging. Strong is built for you, and it's excellent at it
You don't follow structured programming. A general fitness tracker is a better fit
You only care about PR tracking. Most trackers handle this well already

Frequently asked

Questions From The Floor.

How is this different from Strong or Hevy?

Strong and Hevy are excellent set loggers. They track what you do. Fire Your Coach tracks what you planned, what you did, and why the difference matters. It carries that context across blocks, adjusts sessions based on readiness, and gives you plan-vs-actual comparison. Different tool for a different job.

Can I import my data from Strong or Hevy?

Yes. Import your training history via CSV. Fire Your Coach normalizes it so your historical data feeds into the same insight pipeline as FYC-native sessions.

What about Apple Watch integration?

Not yet. FYC is mobile-web-first, designed for phone use at the gym. Watch integration is on the roadmap but not in the current beta.

Do I still need to enter weights manually?

For the first set of each exercise, yes. After that, the weight auto-cascades to remaining sets. Tap to complete. If you used a different weight, just change the number. Previous session weights show up automatically as a reference.
