A session, start to finish

You lift. It does the arithmetic.

Warm-ups, the plates a side, rest and the next weight are worked out before you ask. Change a set with − and +, no keyboard needed.

  • Rest that listens

    The countdown takes the set's place, with −15, +15 and Skip. With the Watch on, a rest guided by heart rate ends early once you've recovered.

  • A last set that tells the truth

    As many as you can. A rep-out after a rated set shows how honest the rating was.

  • On the wrist

    The Watch app logs and rates sets, times rest by heart rate and runs conditioning by zone. A Live Activity holds the rest on the phone.

How it works

From first open to steady progress.

  1. Set up once

    Days, time, equipment, experience, and goals as outcomes. If Stadig Macro already asked, Stadig Lift doesn't.

  2. A short assessment block

    Safe-to-fail anchors find your real numbers and calibrate your ratings. Weekly notes say what was learned. Experienced lifters finish early.

  3. One plan, with a why

    After the assessment you get one block, not a menu. Stadig Macro's phase sets its direction if you use both.

  4. Train, rate, repeat

    Sets autoregulate, stalls get read in context, and check-ins keep the scores honest.

Stadig Lift in detail

Every session prescribed. Every set adjusted to how it went.

  • It learns whether to believe you

    Everyone misjudges reps in reserve. Stadig Lift starts with a guess from your experience and rebuilds its trust in your ratings from evidence: a rep-out after a rated set reveals the truth, and a heavier later set proves more was left.

  • A fatigue budget, never a score

    Every set has a systemic and a local cost. Martial arts classes, runs and anything from Health spend the same budget. Sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, soreness and life stress feed it. When signals stack, the deload comes early.

  • Blocks that bend around life

    Five weeks plus a deload by default, shorter in a cut, longer in a bulk. A vacation near the deload becomes it. Crunch, injury and illness modes change the plan instead of breaking it.

  • Scores that only move on tests

    Strength is scored against bodyweight standards, free weights only, and imbalances become priorities. Endurance from VO₂ max, resting heart rate and benchmarks. Agility from five mobility tests. Physique from the tape.

  • Your equipment, your joints

    It picks the exercises your equipment and joints allow, says how hard each one is on a shoulder or an elbow, and lists the substitutes in your gym.

  • Offline, and yours

    The exercise library ships inside the app, so it works in a basement gym. No account, no analytics. Export to CSV and back up whenever you like.

Progress Sample scores, as the app shows them

Am I progressing?One number answers.

Overhead press is the limiter, so the next block makes it a priority. The number moves only on what you lift, never on time in the app.

Stadig Lift measures Strength, Physique, Endurance and Agility, and the training half of Discipline. Add Stadig Macro and both apps show all six scores.

Your shape in Stadig Lift: five scores drawn as a hexagon, Strength 56, Endurance 97, Agility 62, Discipline 100 and Physique 77, with Vitality waiting on Stadig Macro, and a row for each score.

The other Stadig app Nutrition

Stadig Macro sets the phase. Stadig Lift builds around it.

Stadig Macro learns your real maintenance, picks the phase and adjusts your targets weekly. A cut shortens the block and reads stalls as expected. A bulk lengthens it.
