Feature 1 of 7

Your workout, in your hand

Programmed by Marvic. Run by you. No guesswork.

Every workout is built by hand for you — your goals, your injuries, your equipment, your week. The app delivers it set by set, tracks every lift, and tells your trainer what really happened. No AI coach. No template library. Just your programme.

Your workout, in your hand on the MyPT app
What is in this feature

Everything your workout, in your hand does for you.

  • Programmed by Marvic and Miriam — never by an algorithm
  • Adjusted weekly based on how you actually trained, not a generic progression
  • Live during the session: sets, reps, RPE, rest timers, technique cues
  • Audio coaching for conditioning blocks so you stay in the right zone
  • Auto-captured from Apple Watch, Garmin, Whoop and Health Connect
  • PR alerts the moment you hit one — your trainer sees it too

What this is, plainly

This is the part of the app that delivers the workouts your trainer wrote for you. Every set, every rep, every rest interval — all of it built by Marvic or Miriam by hand, for the person who will do it. The app is the layer that puts it in your pocket so you can run it cleanly in the gym, at home, or on the road. The programming itself is ours.

We do not use AI to write your training. We do not pull from a template library and rebrand it. We do not let an algorithm decide what your week looks like. If a plan goes wrong, there is a person who is accountable for it. That is the whole point.

How the work actually happens

The week before yours starts, Marvic sits down with last week's data and writes the next one. He looks at:

  • What you completed, missed, and how the sessions actually felt
  • Your wearable data — sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, training load
  • Notes from any check-ins or conversations during the week
  • Where you are in the current phase, and what the next phase needs
  • Any practical constraints — you are travelling Thursday, the gym is closed Sunday

The result lands in your app on Sunday evening, ready for the week. If something needs adjusting mid-week, you message us and we adjust. The plan is a conversation, not a download.

What the app does during a session

Workouts open into a focused, full-screen logger so there is nothing pulling your attention between sets. The app shows you:

  • The next set, with last session's numbers pre-filled as the baseline
  • The rest timer, counting down from your prescribed rest period
  • Technique cues your trainer left for that specific exercise on that specific day
  • A short video demo if you want a refresher
  • An RPE picker so you can tell us how it actually felt

The interface is deliberately quiet. No notifications during a working set. No streak gamification interrupting a heavy lift. The work needs to come first; the app's job is to stay out of the way.

Conditioning, the way it should be coached

Most cardio apps offer one button labelled "cardio". We have written your conditioning into one of five distinct modes, because Zone-2 base work, tempo intervals, anaerobic threshold pushes, HIIT, and recovery walks ask very different things of your body — and a coach who treats them the same is a coach who will get you tired without getting you fitter.

  • Zone 2 (aerobic base). Long, conversational efforts. Audio cues nudge you up if you drift below the band, ease you off if you creep above.
  • Tempo. Sustained Zone-3 work. The app tracks how much of the block was actually at tempo and tells your trainer honestly.
  • Anaerobic threshold. Short, hard pushes at the edge of Zone 4. Used carefully, scheduled when your readiness supports it.
  • HIIT. Built-in interval timer with audio cues for work and rest. Stores your historical performance per protocol so we can see real progress.
  • Recovery. Slow walks, gentle mobility, breathwork. Counts toward conditioning volume but not training stress — important for managing the long arc.

Which mode you do on which day is something your trainer decides. The app just makes the chosen mode easy to run well.

Strength sessions that remember what you lifted

Every lift has a profile. When you start an exercise, the app pre-fills last session's load, reps, RPE, and any notes your trainer left. You confirm, tweak, or push. The app handles the maths quietly in the background — estimated 1RMs, volume per muscle group, weekly tonnage — and surfaces only what is relevant. A PR badge when you beat your previous best. A back-off suggestion when your intensity is unsustainable. Everything else is one tap deeper if you want it.

How your wearable fits in

If you have an Apple Watch, Garmin, Whoop, Fitbit, Oura, or any Android wearable that writes to Health Connect, we pull live heart rate during conditioning sessions and auto-capture completed lifts during strength work. The integration runs in both directions: sessions you do in the app show up in your watch's activity rings, and unplanned activity your watch picks up gets suggested to us so we can decide whether it counts.

The most important piece is the daily readiness signal. Each morning, the app computes a green / amber / red score from your overnight sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, and yesterday's strain. We look at it, and we change your plan before you open the app. Amber day? The HIIT block becomes a Zone-2 walk. Red day? The session is mostly mobility and breathwork. The plan adapts to the body that woke up — not the body the programme assumed.

What you can expect, honestly

If you do the work for twelve weeks: you will be measurably stronger on the lifts you train, measurably fitter on the conditioning modes we prioritise, and you will have a body composition that has moved in the direction we agreed on. The change does not happen in week three. Most clients see the inflection at around week eight, and a "this is different from before" moment at week twelve.

The work itself is unglamorous. The programming is what makes the unglamorous work add up to something. That is what you are paying us for.

"I have used MyFitnessPal and Strong and FitBod over the years. The difference with MyPT is that when I miss a session, somebody texts. When I hit a PR, somebody knows. It does not feel like an app. It feels like a coach."

Frequently asked

Your workout, in your hand — your questions, answered.

Who actually writes my workouts?

Marvic, by hand, for you specifically. He is a Certified Personal Trainer with an MBA in Sports Management, currently reading for an MSc in Youth Athletic Development — programming is his actual job, not a side gig. No template gets dropped into your account on signup. No AI coach. A real qualified person who has spoken to you, looked at your assessment, considered your goals, sleep, past injuries, and equipment.

How often does the plan change?

Every week. We look at how you actually trained — what you hit, what you missed, how you felt, what your wearable said — and write next week from there. Big phase changes happen every four to six weeks based on the goal. Nothing is on autopilot.

What does the app do during a session?

It delivers the workout your trainer wrote — set by set, rep by rep, with rest timers, technique cues, and the historical numbers from your last session pre-filled. It records what you actually did so we can see it the next morning. Audio cues run on conditioning blocks to keep you in the target heart-rate zone.

Do I need a wearable?

No. The full workout system works without one — you log every set, rep and conditioning interval manually if you prefer. A wearable just makes the data richer: live heart rate during conditioning, auto-detected lifts, and the readiness signal that lets us adjust the plan before you open the app.

What if I get sick or travel?

You tell us. We re-write the week. Travel weeks usually mean hotel-gym templates we have made for the trip, or bodyweight options that need a doorway and a towel. Illness weeks mean rest, then a gentle ramp back. The plan respects your life — that is most of the job.

Do you coach beginners?

Yes — a lot of our roster started with us as beginners. The progression is slower, the technique work is heavier, and the early sessions are mostly in-person until you are confident running them solo. The app is set up to teach as well as deliver — exercise videos, RPE explainers, gentle scaling cues. There is no level you need to "be at" before you start.

When you are ready, we will be too.

Install the app, take a look around, train with us in person whenever it feels right. There is no rush, no upsell, and no waiting list you cannot get on.
