SMART COACH A.I.
What is it?
The smart coach system is a program that adapts to you as you progress through training, providing you with a truly personalised program.
Your program is tailor-made by your coach to suit your unique capabilities; such as fitness levels, individual biomechanics and goals; and then the smart coach will make adjustments to your sessions depending on your input.
WHY USE IT?
When looking to build muscle we want to expose our muscles to a certain amount of what we call “volume”. Volume is the term for total amount of sets dedicated to a certain muscle group.
Our muscles have certain landmarks of volume figures that provide a range of results. For optimal growth we want to work our way through these landmarks as we progress through training.
what are the volume landmarks?
First we have maintenance volume. This represents the amount of sets per week required just to maintain our current level of muscle for that particular muscle group. However, muscle growth does not occur at this lower level of volume.
Maximum recoverable volume is the amount of sets per week that our muscles can tolerate before it begins to affect future training sessions.
​
In between these two landmarks is where we make optimal growth.

An effective program will take you from the minimum effective volume all the way up to your maximum recoverable volume as the weeks progress. You may think it is more beneficial to spend more time at maximum recoverable volume and that more volume equals more growth. This is just not the case as this leaves very little room to progress your training each week.
Some muscles can tolerate more volume than others depending on genetics and program design. With this in mind the program will progress each muscle group independently, based on how well it is recovering from training.
