W8M8 for Coaches

Powerlifting Coaching Software: Real e1RM and PR Tracking

Powerlifting programming lives and dies on the numbers: what did the top single actually move, is the estimated max trending up, and did the client hit the prescribed RPE. Generic fitness apps bury this under step counts and calorie rings. W8M8 was built around the lift.

Every top set becomes real data

When a client logs a set, W8M8 computes an estimated one-rep max with the Epley formula in real time and flags a PR the moment it happens, no client needs to know their own max to see progress. Open any client's squat, bench, or deadlift and see the e1RM trend across every session, not just the ones you happened to be there for.

Volume and best-set data sit next to the trend, so a stalling e1RM with rising volume tells a different story than a stalling e1RM with falling volume. That distinction is the difference between adding a back-off set and deloading.

Program the meet, not just the week

The program editor is a real strength-programming surface: drag exercises from a 4,300-movement catalog onto specific training days, set exact sets, reps, and a coaching note per exercise (bar speed cues, RPE targets, pause requirements). This is hand-built programming, not an AI guess at a template.

Build a block once, in the editor, then send it to every lifter following the same peaking cycle in two clicks. Save it to your library and reuse it for the next training cycle without rebuilding from scratch.

Free access for your lifters

Invite your first 2 lifters free, forever. They get the full tracking app, no subscription required, for as long as they train with you. Powerlifting clients are often students, amateur competitors, or federation athletes on tight budgets. Removing the app-cost objection removes a real barrier to them logging consistently.

Try it with 2 clients, free

Invite a client, see their real training data, and send your first AI-drafted program, in under five minutes.

FAQ

Does W8M8 calculate estimated one-rep max automatically?

Yes, using the Epley formula (weight × (1 + reps/30)) applied to every logged set, so you see e1RM trends without anyone needing to test a true max.

Can I program specific bar weights and RPE, not just AI-generated sets?

Yes. The program editor lets you set exact sets, reps, and a coaching note (RPE, tempo, bar speed) per exercise by hand, using the full exercise catalog. AI drafting is available but optional, not required.

Is it free for my lifters?

Your first 2 lifters get the full tracking app free for as long as they are linked to you. Beyond that, it's €39/month flat for unlimited athletes, not a per-lifter fee.
