FAQ

Straight Answers About Forjex

What is Forjex?
Forjex is an iPhone app for strength training. It combines a workout tracker, AI form check, macro tracker, readiness score, squads and coaching in one app with one training record.
Is Forjex free?
Yes, the core is free. Workout tracking, squads, challenges, leaderboards and limited form analysis cost nothing. Forjex+ adds the AI layer, and Forjex Coach adds the coaching workspace.
Is Forjex on Android?
Not yet. Forjex is iOS first: an iPhone app with an Apple Watch app. Coaches can also work from the web app in any browser.
Does Forjex need an Apple Watch?
No. Logging, form checks, food and squads work on iPhone alone. An Apple Watch adds workout logging from the wrist and the sleep and heart data behind the readiness score.
How does the AI form check work?
You film a set on your iPhone. Forjex AI scores the lift and points to the reps where depth, bar path or joint position broke down. It flags technique; it does not replace a coach.
Where do the macro targets come from?
Forjex sets calorie and macro targets from your own TDEE, calculated with the Mifflin-St Jeor equation from your body data and activity. You log food by search, barcode or photo.
What is the readiness score?
Readiness reads your sleep, heart rate variability and resting heart rate from Apple Health and compares them with your own baselines, not with population averages.
Does Forjex use kilograms or pounds?
Both. Forjex stores every figure in metric and shows kilograms or pounds, and kilometres or miles, by your preference.
Can I import my training plan?
Yes. You can import a plan, build your own, or, with Forjex+, ask Forjex AI to propose one from your goals, schedule and equipment. AI changes wait for your approval.
Can I hire a coach in Forjex?
Yes. Coaches list a public profile, and you can message them, start coaching and pay inside the app. Your coach then sees the training you log.

Workout Tracker

Is the Forjex workout tracker free?
Yes. The workout tracker is part of the free plan, with your last 30 days of history, squads and leaderboards. Forjex+ keeps a longer history.
Can I log workouts on Apple Watch?
Yes. Forjex has an Apple Watch app for logging sets from the wrist.
Does it track kilograms and pounds?
Yes. Forjex stores weight in kilograms and shows kilograms or pounds by your preference.

AI Form Check

Which lifts does the form check cover?
It is built for barbell lifts such as the squat, bench press and deadlift, and works on other recorded lifts too.
Is the AI form check free?
The free plan includes limited form analysis. Forjex+ expands it.
Can AI replace a coach for form?
No. It flags obvious technique errors quickly. A coach still reads context the camera cannot see.

Macro Tracker

Does Forjex scan barcodes?
Yes. Forjex scans food barcodes and can log a meal from a photo.
How are calorie targets set?
From your TDEE, calculated with the Mifflin-St Jeor equation from your height, weight, age and activity.
Can my coach see my food log?
Only if you work with a coach in Forjex and share it. Coaching access is controlled by you.

Readiness Score

Do I need a Whoop or an Oura ring?
No. Forjex reads the sleep and heart data Apple Health already holds.
Which data does readiness use?
Sleep, heart rate variability and resting heart rate, compared with your own baselines.
Does readiness work without an Apple Watch?
It needs overnight heart data, which usually comes from an Apple Watch through Apple Health.

Squads and Challenges

Are squads free?
Yes. Squads, challenges and leaderboards are part of the free plan.
What can a squad challenge count?
Workouts, training volume, active energy, distance, exercise minutes or readiness.
Do my squad mates see all my data?
No. Each member chooses which metrics the squad can see.

Find a Coach

How do I find a coach in Forjex?
Open the coach directory in the app, read a profile, and send a message or start coaching.
Can a coach change my plan without asking?
Your coach assigns plans in Forjex, and you see every change in your training plan.
I am a coach. Can I list myself?
Yes. Forjex Coach gives you a public profile, a client roster and payments.

AI Workout Plan

Is the AI workout plan free?
AI plans are part of Forjex+. The workout tracker itself is free.
Will the AI change my plan on its own?
No. Forjex AI proposes changes, and they apply only when you approve them.
Can I import a plan instead?
Yes. You can import a plan or build your own.

Run and Ride Tracker

Does Forjex track runs?
Yes. Forjex tracks runs, rides and hikes with a mapped route.
What is a route flythrough?
A 3D video that flies along your route, with distance, time and pace, ready to share.
Does cardio count in squad challenges?
Yes. Distance, energy and exercise minutes can all count.
