Hughie
What Hughie builds your program from
Generic plans fail because they're built for an imaginary average person. Hughie builds yours from what he already knows about you: your goal (build strength, lose weight, or stay active), your experience level (which decides things like whether you start with wall, knee, or standard push-ups), and, as you train, your workout history. Rep targets start from your own average per set, movements you haven't done lately get priority, and he won't hand you an easier version of a movement you've already outgrown.
He also works around your limitations. Tell Hughie about knee pain in chat, or turn movements off in Settings → Personal Details → Movements to Skip, and he leaves out the movements that would load that joint, while the rest of the workout stays at your level. The program preview tells you when something was left out and where to change it.
You set your goal and level once during onboarding, so generating a program asks you nothing new. The output is a circuit workout with rounds and rep targets, built from exercises Hughie can count with the camera.
Your first Hughie-built program is free to try. Beyond that, Hughie Pro unlocks more Hughie-built programs and programs that adapt as you get stronger, plus Chat with Hughie (a conversational agent that gives training advice, remembers your history, and proposes a new program when you ask for one) and post-workout coach notes. A free program is yours to keep and repeat; a Pro one keeps moving.
Built on published exercise science
Program structure isn't improvised: circuit format, exercise count (8–12 for a full session), and session lengths follow published ACSM guidance, rest periods are adapted from NSCA circuit-recovery guidance for the lighter loads of bodyweight training, and exercises are ordered so no muscle group works twice in a row. Sessions are capped by level — 30 minutes for beginners, 45 intermediate, 60 advanced — rather than padded with rest to hit a number. The sources are linked in-app under Settings → The Science Behind Your Workouts.
From generated plan to finished workout
- Generate your program. Nothing new to fill in — Hughie builds it from your goal, level, workout history, and limitations. If you want something more specific, describe it in your own words and he builds it from that instead.
- Open today's session. Your exercises, rounds, and rep goals are laid out — no guesswork.
- Train with live tracking. Run the program in live mode and it auto-advances — hit the rep goal and it flows into the transition, then the next movement, hands-free. And if a goal is too ambitious today, you can enter what you did or skip ahead; the program keeps moving with you.
- Let the plan move. On Pro your program adapts as you clear it: hit your targets two sessions in a row and the next session asks for a little more. It's on by default for programs Hughie builds, and you can turn it off anytime on the program's page with "Let this program adapt". Progression is earned, not scheduled, so it never outruns a hard week or holds you back in a good one. When there's no runway left at your level, Hughie says so and offers the step up rather than piling on volume.
Prefer to build your own? That's free too
If you already know what you want to run, Hughie's program builder lets you make your own: pick the exercises, set each one's reps or time and the number of rounds, and it runs as one continuous tracked circuit. Hughie is there when you want a program built for you, and he never gets in the way when you don't.

AI workout plan FAQ
Is the AI workout plan really free?
Your first Hughie-built program is free to try, no subscription needed. More Hughie-built programs, programs that adapt as you clear them, Chat with Hughie, and post-workout coach notes are Pro features.
What kind of exercises are in the plans?
Bodyweight movements drawn from Hughie's 21-exercise live-tracked library — push-up and squat variants, side lunges, split squats, glute bridges, crunches, high knees, planks, wall sits, and more — organized by level, so the plan matches yours, and every exercise in it is one Hughie can count with the camera.
Can the plan adapt as I improve?
Yes. On Pro, a program's targets rise when you hit them two sessions in a row. And every program Hughie builds, including your free one, starts from your goal, level, workout history, and limitations, so what you've been doing shapes what he builds next.
