Built: Strength Training Coach

Built is a strength training coach in your pocket: a real strength or hypertrophy program matched to your equipment and schedule, your calories and macros, and a 7-day meal plan made of real dishes. I built it so you stop guessing.

Tell me your goal, the equipment you actually have, the days you can actually train, your height and weight, how active you are and how you eat. Built hands you the whole plan.

BUILT FOR YOUR SITUATION
• Plateaued on a lift? You get a program with a real progression rule, so you always know next week's number. Progressive overload, tracked, not guessed.
• Coming back after a layoff? Pick "getting back on track" and the program starts from where you are now.
• Training over 40? Built plans around the days you can actually hit, not a five-day split that assumes unlimited recovery time.
• Home gym or minimal equipment? It programs around what you have: a barbell, a pair of dumbbells or just your bodyweight.
• Playing a sport? The Sport Performance goal fits strength work around practice and games.

NEW: PILATES AND CORE
Two mat programs I wrote for lifters: Beginner Core Foundations and a Strength + Pilates Hybrid. Every move has cues, an easier version and a harder one. Took a class instead? Log it in the Pilates tab.

NEW: PLATE CALCULATOR
Type the weight and see exactly what goes on each side of the bar. Pounds or kilos, 45 lb, 35 lb, 20 kg, 15 kg, EZ and trap bars, and your own plates, microplates included.

NEW: MEAL DELIVERY, MATCHED TO YOUR MACROS
Use a meal delivery service? Built has menus from three of them. Pick yours and which meals it covers, and Built picks the menu items that fit your macros and plans the rest of your day around them.

WHAT YOU GET
• A program from a library of 40 strength, hypertrophy and sport programs, with exact sets, reps and a progression rule
• Calories and macros from your own body and activity, with sensible floors built in
• A day-by-day meal plan of real dishes, every portion in grams, plus a grocery list for the days you're shopping. Vegetarian supported.
• A Today checklist and calendar for workouts, meals and supplements
• A coach for the follow-ups: why a lift stalled, how to train around a tweaked shoulder, what to do when the week goes sideways. Past chats are saved.
• Set logging with your next target, and a bodyweight trend
• A clean light design with Petrol accents, a dark mode, or follow your phone's setting
