Grifter — Your AI Training Partner
Science-backed coaching that reads your real training data. Spots stalls before you feel them, flags volume gaps, and answers your training questions — no generic advice, just your numbers interpreted by an AI that understands periodization, progressive overload, and recovery.
Meet Grifter.
Grit + Lifter. Your AI, Your Data.
Grifter lives inside your training log. It reads your sets, your trends, your PRs — and tells you what the numbers actually mean. Stalling on bench? Grifter sees it in your e1RM curve before you notice the reps dropping. Volume running low for back? It flags the gap against evidence-based targets.
Five insight cards. Zero AI cost. Always watching your data so you don't have to.
When you want to go deeper — ask. Grifter answers training questions grounded in your actual workout history, not internet guesswork.

One session,
start to finish.
From opening the roster to closing out the notes — coach and client move through the same workout on two phones, in real time.
Every client, one screen.
No spreadsheets. Open the Clients tab and see your whole book — last session, current programme, status — all rendered from real training data.
A coaching calendar that thinks like one.
Pending requests, reschedules, cancellations — all surfaced inline. Approve a reschedule with one tap. No juggling Calendly, WhatsApp, and a notebook.
"Ending soon" finds the at-risk ones.
Clients whose last booked session is within 14 days, with nothing scheduled after. One-tap reschedule before they drift away.
Open a client, get the full picture.
Sessions, analytics, notes, chat, schedule — five tabs covering everything you need to coach this person. Quick actions for notes, programme assignment, hand-off, and email at the top.
Schedule with the programme attached.
Pick a client, time, duration, type — and which programme they'll run. Recurring sessions, private coaching notes, and one-tap consult/check-in types all in the same modal.
Today, tomorrow, next Wednesday.
Newly-booked sessions appear instantly under TODAY. Status pills show what's confirmed vs. requested vs. needing your approval.
Your booking. Their phone. Instantly.
A booking from your side becomes a confirmed appointment card on the client's home — with the programme they're running and a one-tap "Start session" the moment it's time.
Built-in chat. No third-party apps.
"Can I sub goblet squat for leg press tomorrow?" → "Sure you can." Threaded with each client right inside their profile, surfaced on the client's home as a notification.
Your client taps Start. You see it.
A "TRAINING NOW" section floats to the top of your roster with a LIVE chip the second a client begins a workout. One tap and you're in the same session.
Same set. Same screen. Same moment.
When the client logs a rep, you see it. When you tweak the weight, they see it. A "Coach is here" banner appears on the client's screen so they know you're watching.
Even the rest timer is synced.
No more "what set are they on?" — when the client's timer hits 0:54, yours hits 0:54 too. Sub-second drift. The whole session is on rails.
Drop a cue mid-set.
"Form looks great, push for one more next set." A note attached to the exercise — visible to your client right where they're training.
A private thread, just for you.
Below the shared cue, a private note only you see. "Tightened up at rep 8 — push to 10 next time." Carries forward across every session of that exercise so you build a memory the client never forgets.
Sessions become trends.
Workouts per week and total volume — the two top-of-funnel metrics that tell you whether someone's actually consistent and progressing.
Stalling vs progressing — auto-tagged.
Each lift gets a chip: stalling, progressing, or holding. Built off e1RM trend, not just last weight. Spot the deload candidates before the client feels them.
Volume by muscle. PRs in context.
Weekly set counts mapped to muscle groups (productive, maintenance, under-stimulated). Recent PRs sorted by max-volume so you know which lifts are actually moving.
Frequently Asked
Is GritLift free? add
Yes — the core app is free. You can log unlimited workouts, build programmes, track nutrition, and review your history without paying. Watch and Trainer features are paid add-ons (with free trials) so you only subscribe if you actually use them.
Do I need a smartwatch to use it? add
No. The phone app stands on its own. The watch is an optional companion for when you'd rather leave the phone in your bag.
Which devices are supported? add
iPhone (iOS 15+), Android (10+), Apple Watch (watchOS 10+), and Wear OS 4+ watches.
Can I create my own workout programmes? add
Yes. Build programmes from scratch, pick exercises from a library of 800+ movements, configure sets, reps, rest, and supersets — or duplicate one of the built-in programmes and tweak it.
Does it suggest weights for me? add
Yes. GritLift uses effort-aware double progression — it looks at your last performance and your reported effort (RPE), then suggests the next weight or rep target. Push the floor when you're ready, hold steady when you're not.
Can I add exercises that aren't in the database? add
Yes — create custom exercises with your own name, muscle group, and equipment. They behave exactly like built-in exercises and feed the same progression engine.
Can I log a workout entirely from my watch? add
Yes. Start a programme from your wrist, log sets, switch exercises, and finish the session — all without touching your phone. Everything syncs back the moment your phone reconnects.
Does GritLift track nutrition? add
Yes — calories and macros (protein, carbs, fat). Search a global food database, scan barcodes, photograph nutrition labels, or save your own meals for one-tap logging later.
What is Grifter? add
Grifter is GritLift's AI training advisor — part insight engine, part coaching chat. The insight cards (progress trends, volume analysis, frequency tracking, PR alerts, deload signals) are free and run on pure math. The chat is a paid add-on ($5/mo, BYOK via OpenRouter) that gives you a science-backed AI coach grounded in your real training data. It won't write your meal plan or tell you jokes — it stays in its lane: your training.
What is OpenRouter, and why do I need a key? add
GritLift uses OpenRouter — an AI gateway — to power smart food search and the nutrition label scanner. To keep the app free and avoid building API costs into the price, you bring your own key. Setup takes about a minute: create a free account at openrouter.ai, generate a key, paste it into Settings, and you're done. Testers can request a shared key by emailing support@gritlift.app.
Does it integrate with Apple Health or Health Connect? add
Yes. Pull in body weight, sleep, and activity data to enrich your dashboard. Permissions are opt-in and you can revoke them at any time.
Where is my data stored? add
Your data is stored securely in Google Firebase (Cloud Firestore). Only you and any trainer you've explicitly connected with can access it. We never sell or share your data with advertisers.
Can I delete my account and data? add
Yes — visit the account deletion page or use the in-app settings. All your workout, nutrition, and personal data is permanently removed.
Can my coach see my workouts? add
Yes — if your coach has a GritLift Trainer account, send them an invite code from the app to connect. They can view your sessions, assign programmes, and add notes. You can disconnect at any time.
