More hours is the wrong answer
When progress stalls, the usual fix is to add. More sets, more days, more time you don't have. That's the fastest way to quit something that was nearly working.
Align. Develop. Achieve.
It takes the right work, done consistently. ADAPT is strength training built on the minimum effective dose, and the habits that hold it together. Built around your life, guided every step.

The dose
The first 2 hard sets drive most of the strength and growth. Sets 3, 4 and 5 add a little and cost a lot.
Long enough to do the work properly. Short enough that a bad day doesn't cancel it.
A week you can hold through a busy month will take you further than one you drop after 3.
Everything past that costs more than it gives back. Build your own week, free →
Why it hasn't stuck
5 days a week. 2 hours a session. Perfect recovery. A plan like that works right up until real life turns up. Then it stops working at all.

When progress stalls, the usual fix is to add. More sets, more days, more time you don't have. That's the fastest way to quit something that was nearly working.
02 / Consistency
A program you follow for 6 weeks and drop leaves you exactly where you started. The one you can hold through a bad month is the one that moves you.
03 / Guesswork
If nothing is written down, nothing can be progressed. You end up repeating the same session at the same weight and calling it training.
The method
The smallest amount of the right work that still moves you forward, done every week, for a long time. Not the most you can survive. The least you can repeat.
That's what makes it fit around a job, a family and a week that rarely goes to plan. And it's why the habits sitting around the training matter as much as the sessions themselves.
“Less, done right.”
The first 2 to 3 sets taken near failure produce most of the strength and growth, because that's when the muscle is freshest and recruitment is highest. PMID 20300012 · PMID 27433992
The plan is built around the week you actually have, the equipment you can actually reach, and the point you're actually starting from.
Strength work that progresses on purpose, each block building on the last, so the weight on the bar moves for a reason.
Measured. Weight, metrics and progress photos live in the app, so you can see the direction of travel instead of arguing with the mirror.
I write every block myself, and I'm in the app when you need me. You get a coach's judgment on your training.
The idea underneath all of it
Anyone can train hard when the week is clear, you slept properly and nothing went wrong.
What decides your year is how high your lowest point stays when the week goes wrong.
Raise the floor and your progress stops depending on perfect weeks. There are hardly any of those.
Inside the app
My programming is already built in. You get the session, tick the habits, log the numbers, and watch the line move.

Metrics + Add
My strength work, laid out session by session.
Every weight and rep you lift, recorded and kept, session after session.
The daily basics, tracked, because they're what hold the training together.
Weight, custom metrics and progress photos in one timeline.
A feed and a leaderboard, so you're not doing it on your own.
Questions, form checks, a week that fell apart. I'm in the app.
Where you train
The programming is mine. Where you do it, when you do it, and how it bends around a week that changes is yours.
Where
Your session is on your phone before you walk in, and in a browser if you'd rather. Your gym, a rack in the garage, or whatever the hotel is calling a gym this week.
When
Sessions aren't chained to particular days. Push one, train Tuesday instead of Monday, pick the block up where you left it. The progression doesn't care what the calendar did.
If it needs changing
Equipment you don't have, a tweak in your back, a week that fell apart. Message me in the app and I'll tell you what to do instead.
What you get
Straight answers
ADAPT is $97 a month. That covers your programming and everything inside the app, and you can cancel any time.
No. ADAPT is the app, so the programming, the log and your progress live in it wherever you train. I'm reachable in there if you need something changed.
Not having much time is what ADAPT is built around. The minimum effective dose is the least work that still moves you forward, done consistently. Sessions run 30 to 45 min, 2 to 4 days a week.
My training programming, habit tracking, a full training log, progress tracking with photos and custom metrics, a community feed with a leaderboard, and direct messaging with me.
No. The programming is built to be picked up from where you are and progressed from there, and every movement is laid out session by session. If something isn't working, message me in the app and I'll tell you what to change.
Yes, there's a full web version you can use in any browser. Same account, same data as the phone apps. You'll get the address with your login details when you join.
Join through the link on this page. You'll get your login details straight after, then install ADAPT on your phone or open it in a browser. Your first session is waiting when you log in.
