Tips for Best Results

  • 💡Be specific about injuries — 'bad knees' tells the AI to avoid high-impact exercises and substitute appropriately
  • 💡Ask for two workout variations (A and B) to alternate each week and prevent adaptation
  • 💡Request a deload week plan every 4 weeks — recovery is when you actually get stronger
