The Rise of AI Training: How Machine Learning Predicts Your Plateaus
The future of fitness isn't just tracking what you did; it's predicting what you CAN do. In 2026, AI is no longer a gimmick—it's the coach in your pocket.
Track total tonnage and weekly set volume. The key driver of hypertrophy.
Volume is the primary driver of hypertrophy. If you aren't tracking your total tonnage and hard sets per week, you are leaving gains on the table. RepLog is built around volume metrics.
Sets x Reps x Weight. Calculated instantly for every exercise and session.
Ensure you are staying within the optimal 10-20 hard sets per week range.
Use RPE to filter out warm-up sets from your net volume stats.
Volume management is about staying between two lines: 1. **MEV (Minimum Effective Volume):** The least amount of work you need to do to grow. 2. **MRV (Maximum Recoverable Volume):** The most work you can do before you can't recover. RepLog helps you find these bounds. If you do 10 sets of chest and don't get sore or grow, you are below MEV. If you do 20 sets and your strength crashes, you exceeded MRV. Use the "Weekly Set Count" graph to tune your volume into the growth zone.
Most research suggests 10-20 hard sets per muscle, per week, is optimal for hypertrophy.
No, RepLog automatically excludes sets marked as 'Warm-up' from your volume stats.
