A better everyday GRITFIT

Better coaching. Clearer screens.
More of your week, connected.

The latest releases improve the details you use every day, from reviewing a plan to recording the last set and finding your saved results.

Coach V2

Advice with something behind it.

Relevant saved workouts and progress give Coach context. Open Supporting details, copy a reply and keep your draft when you switch conversations.

Guided training

Less friction between sets.

See sets, reps and weight together, edit completed rows and follow a focused rest countdown. Minimise and return with your typed inputs intact.

Your whole week

Plan, fuel and review.

Choose the place and equipment for each training day. Log meals and macros, record runs and see your history without piecing together separate notes.

Everyday reliability

Clearer when life interrupts.

Improved recording checkpoints, save recovery, retry messages, larger-text layouts and exercise previews help you understand what happened and what to do next.

More than a one-off workout

A useful plan has to join up four things.

I built GRITFIT around a question I kept asking in my own training: what should I do today, and what should change after I finish? The plan, the session, the numbers you log and the next decision need to speak to one another.

01

Build around today

Build a session or programme around your goal and available time. Set Home, Gym or a saved GritSpace and its equipment for individual training days.

02

Train in the app

Follow strength, cardio and timed formats with the right controls for sets, intervals, distance or steady work.

03

Record what happened

Completed sets, reps, load, effort and session feedback create a more useful picture than the plan alone.

04

Let the next step evolve

Relevant history, check-ins and programme state can influence whether GRITFIT holds, progresses or adjusts.

Meet Coach V2

Your training has context.
Your Coach should too.

Ask about your planned session, logged progress or a practical nutrition question. Coach V2 can draw on relevant saved training and explain the details behind its response.

  • Open Supporting details to see the training evidence used in a progress reply.
  • Prepare a new workout around your available time and equipment.
  • Copy replies, keep drafts between conversations and return to a New reply.
  • Review supported workout and programme changes before confirming them, with recovery for background requests.

Coach uses a large language model and can be wrong. It is not a human coach or clinician. Relevant prompts and training context may be processed by GRITFIT's contracted external AI provider; see AI Transparency.

Workout system

Clearer from the first rep
to the final rest.

Guided strength brings each exercise and its sets together. Intervals, conditioning and cardio keep the controls that suit their own session.

StrengthSets, reps, load, rest and effort
AMRAPTimed rounds with completion state
EMOMMinute-by-minute rotation
Tabata + intervalsWork, recovery and transitions
Steady cardioRunning and cardio-machine sessions
ProgrammesStructured multi-week training

Watch features remain in beta. Sync workouts from your phone before heading out; direct watch cloud upload is not included. GPS and sensor behaviour vary by device.

Nutrition, alongside your training

Keep food and training
in the same picture.

Log the food you eat and review calories, protein, carbohydrate and fat without leaving GRITFIT. Build meals you can use again, with portion previews before saving.

  • Find foods, add your own or enter the values from a food label.
  • Create saved meals and recipes, then choose the portion you ate.
  • Review daily and weekly progress, with partly logged days clearly identified.
  • Set or review your daily guide and choose whether to publish a recipe under your food contributor profile.

Demo values are illustrative. Food data and targets can be estimates; review portions and labels. Nutrition guidance is general wellness information and is not personalised medical advice.

Running, routes and recovery

Plan the route.
Keep the work you record.

Build a route, record your run and review the result. Recent updates focus on the moments that matter when a session runs long, the screen locks or saving is delayed.

01

Prepare before you start

Route planning remembers your map area and offers a pace-based time estimate. Optional Jay and Lucy cues support the run experience.

02

Stay in control

Pause, resume and choose whether to finish or keep going after a goal. Build 191 improves pause and stop recovery when saving or sync is delayed.

03

Review what happened

Recording checkpoints, resume saves and clear retry messages help recover interrupted sessions. Add or correct a measured distance in history using kilometres or miles.

Outdoor GPS accuracy depends on the device, permissions and conditions. Keep recordings on the device until they have saved and synced; update in place.

Progression and adaptation

Progress is based on the work you record.

GRITFIT does not have to assume every planned set went perfectly. Individual exercises can be considered separately, and cardio follows its own rules.

During training

Log the work

Record completed sets, reps and load, plus exercise and overall effort where available.

After training

Compare plan with reality

Completion, effort, pain or fatigue signals and recent history can help determine whether progression is appropriate.

Next matching session

Hold, progress or adjust

GRITFIT may keep a target steady, suggest more reps, make a small load change or reduce the next exposure. Important mutations require confirmation.

Progression is conservative and cannot guarantee a particular result. Logged data may be incomplete or inaccurate, so your judgement still matters.

Private media. Protected on your device.

Private photos and videos.
End-to-end encrypted.

After photo encryption setup, new Progress Photos and Hidden Folder photos and videos are encrypted on your device before upload.

Available in the current phone beta. Update your app and complete photo encryption setup before adding private media.

  • Encrypted files and thumbnails: private media is encrypted before it reaches cloud storage.
  • Keys stay with you: your devices unlock your encrypted media. GRITFIT does not receive your recovery code.
  • Extra access controls: separate folder PINs and optional device biometrics help protect access on your device.
  • Upgrade older uploads: use Encrypt older photos in the app. Earlier files are not automatically encrypted.

Keep your recovery code safe. If you lose it and every device holding your key, GRITFIT cannot restore your encrypted media. This protection does not cover all app data: account details, training records, ordinary check-in notes and Coach conversations are outside this media encryption. Read what is protected.

Designed with boundaries

You see the proposal.
You make the call.

Review supported plan changes and the reasons behind them before applying. Completed workouts stay in history, with saved confirmations and undo for supported weekly changes.

Structured constraints

Duration, equipment, location, workout format and programme state are handled as data, so they can be checked.

Additional checks

Workout and progression outputs pass through fixed validation rules and conservative limits before they can affect training.

You confirm changes

When an important supported change can be made, GRITFIT presents what will change so you can review it first.

Important: GRITFIT provides fitness information, not medical advice. Safety checks reduce risk but cannot remove it. Stop if something feels wrong and seek qualified advice when appropriate.
Available in the current beta build

More ways to keep your training moving.

Alongside the latest improvements, the current beta brings together event-aware planning, private accountability, optional voice cues and an evolving Workout of the Week.

01

Goal and event-aware plans

Choose your main goal and, for supported event goals, add an event date. Generated running blocks can place the event and use a conservative pre-event taper when that date falls within the block.

02

Calibration without fake certainty

Your first three completed sessions finish the introductory calibration week. Evidence confidence remains a separate signal, so recommendations stay conservative while useful goal-specific history builds.

03

Private accountability

Connect with one invited partner, control the limited weekly information you share and send a fixed encouragement nudge without opening your private training content.

04

Choose your workout voice

Select Jay or Lucy for short spoken prompts in supported timed and cardio experiences. Voice cues remain optional and can be switched off.

Event planning cannot guarantee race performance. Push delivery depends on device permission and a store-installed build. Feature availability can vary by platform and beta release.

Straight answers

Before you join.

How it works, what is available and where your judgement still matters.

Does GRITFIT include food and nutrition tracking?

Yes. The current beta includes a food diary, calories and macros, custom foods, label-value entry, reusable meals and recipes, and daily and weekly progress. Partly logged days stay visibly incomplete. Targets and food values can be estimates, so check labels and portions.

What is GRITFIT.AI?

GRITFIT.AI is a fitness training app. It creates structured workouts and programmes around information such as your goal, experience, equipment, location and schedule, then uses the training you record and relevant feedback to help inform future recommendations.

How is it different from asking a general AI for a workout?

A general AI usually responds to the prompt in front of it. GRITFIT combines an AI conversation with your programme state, completed workouts, logged sets, recent history and additional validation rules. The language model helps with communication and reasoning, but it is not the workout database or the final authority over protected training state.

Does GRITFIT remember previous workouts?

GRITFIT stores your account's training history and can load a bounded amount of relevant recent history, exercise trends, check-ins and active-plan context. That information can influence future coaching and progression. It does not have perfect memory, and incomplete logs can lead to incomplete conclusions.

Does it automatically increase my weights?

Not blindly. Recorded sets, reps, load, effort, pain and recent exposures can influence a progression decision for the next matching exercise. GRITFIT may hold, progress, reduce or ask for more information. Important plan mutations require confirmation.

Can I use it at home or when I am short on time?

Yes. Equipment, training location and available duration are supported inputs when building a workout or programme. Coach can prepare a new session around changed constraints. Some edits to an already confirmed live session are intentionally more limited.

Can it work around injuries or limitations?

You can record injuries, movement limitations and recovery constraints, and GRITFIT uses them when filtering or validating supported training. This does not make the app a diagnostic or rehabilitation service. Seek a qualified medical or physiotherapy professional for symptoms, injuries or return-to-training decisions.

What devices are supported?

The current private beta supports compatible iPhones and iPads running iOS or iPadOS 15.0 or later, plus Android phones and tablets running Android 8.0 Oreo (API level 26) or later. Support is based on the operating-system version rather than a specific phone model. Tablet layouts are supported. Apple Watch and Wear OS companions are available within the matching tester releases; sync from the phone before using downloaded workouts away from it. Watch and outdoor sensor behaviour remain under beta evaluation.

How is my data used?

Account, profile, training and Coach information is used to operate and personalise the service. GRITFIT uses contracted providers for authentication, hosting, database, storage, security, telemetry and AI processing. Relevant prompts and training context may be processed by the external AI provider. Optional health connections and cloud step history have separate permissions and controls. Read the Privacy Policy for the full data map.

How are Progress Vault and Hidden Folder media protected?

After photo encryption setup in the current phone beta, new Progress Photos and Hidden Folder photos and videos, including their thumbnails, are end-to-end encrypted on your device before upload. Keep your recovery code safe: GRITFIT cannot restore encrypted media if you lose the code and every device holding your key. Use Encrypt older photos to upgrade earlier uploads. Account details, training records, ordinary check-in notes and Coach conversations are not covered by this media encryption.

Can I delete my account and data?

Yes. The app includes export, training-reset and account-deletion controls. A completed account deletion removes account-scoped active data and private media from GRITFIT's operating systems and removes the Firebase authentication identity; residual backup copies may age out later under the confirmed retention schedule.

Is GRITFIT medical advice?

No. GRITFIT provides fitness and wellness information only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, physiotherapy, rehabilitation or emergency support. AI, wearable and sensor information can be wrong or incomplete.
