How a guided workout session works
Open today's workout and press start. The player handles everything else in order.
See and hear every exercise
Each exercise comes with a video demonstration and audio instructions, so you know exactly what to do without reading through descriptions mid-workout.
Timers run automatically
Exercise and rest timers start and stop on their own for consistent timing across every set. No fiddling with a stopwatch between sets.
Track as you go
Reps and weights are logged directly in the player, with recommended values pre-filled by the Progressive Overload Assistant. You can also record your sets with the exercise recorder to check your form later.
What is a guided workout app?
A guided workout app walks you through a training session in real time instead of just showing you a list of exercises. In Simple Calisthenics, the Workout Player presents each exercise with audio and video instructions, runs the work and rest timers automatically, and collects your reps and weights as you train. The result feels closer to training with a coach than to reading a plan from a note on your phone.
Can I train hands-free?
Largely, yes. Timers start and stop automatically and instructions are spoken out loud, so you rarely need to touch your phone mid-set. Combined with the AI Rep Counter, which counts your reps through the camera, or the Apple Watch app, which puts the controls on your wrist, complete sets can run without touching the phone at all.
Why record your sets during a workout?
Form is the foundation of calisthenics, and you cannot see your own form while training. The built-in exercise recorder captures your sets so you can review technique afterwards, compare recordings from previous workouts, and watch your movement quality improve alongside your numbers.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need headphones for the audio instructions?
- No. Audio plays through your phone speaker or any connected headphones, whichever you prefer.
- Can I adjust rest times?
- Yes. Rest times come pre-configured from your program and can be edited to fit your preferences, along with rep ranges and exercise choices.
- What happens if I need to stop early?
- You can shorten a session on the fly and the app prioritizes the most important exercises, so a short workout still moves you forward.
- Does the player work with the Apple Watch?
- Yes. Timers, reps, and weights can be viewed and controlled from the synced Apple Watch app without picking up your phone.
- Are my logged sets used for anything?
- Yes. Every logged set feeds the Progressive Overload Assistant and your statistics, improving future recommendations and your progress charts.
