After performing a set, use the slider bar to indicate how difficult the set was that you performed. The difficulty you choose will indicate how heavy your next set is.

Peak Strength suggests the best weights to lift based on your training history. Use the suggested difficulty to guide how heavy you should lift.

If the suggested weight seems too heavy or too light, change the weight by tapping on the weight number.

After completing the set, select how difficult it actually felt. The app will adjust to a more accurate weight for your next set based on how you feel that day.

Ramping Exercise - The suggested weight will increase each set to push you harder

Difficulty Ratings - Based on the Reps In Reserve (RIR) and Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE)
