01Logging
Effort-based set logging
Log weight, reps, and RIR or RPE for every set. Mark warmups separately from work sets so your data stays clean.
The training stack
Run your block, hit your numbers, check the PRs.
Plan
Set up a block with accumulation and peaking phases. Use 5/3/1, a built-in program, or your own template.
Log
Record weight, reps, and effort for every set. The plate calculator tells you what goes on the bar.
Progress
Track max weights per lift, weekly volume, and strength trends. Export your history when you need raw data.
On the platform
Less math, more lifting.
Powerlifting sessions are simple on paper but messy in practice. Obsidian handles the logging details so you can focus on the bar.

Example block
Accumulation into a peak
Build multi-week programs with different blocks. Training and rest days are built into the schedule.
Accumulation
Higher volume at moderate intensity. Log RIR or RPE for every working set and let volume charts track the load.
Peaking
Heavier singles and doubles with longer rest. The plate calculator handles bar loading between attempts.
Meet day
Log attempts with weight and reps. Your PR history updates automatically after the session.
