Hi everyone, I’m Michael, the maker of PR Wiz. I’ve been lifting for a long time and have run all kinds of programs. One thing I kept noticing is that a lot of serious lifters are still using spreadsheets to track their training. A lot of workout apps are great for beginners. I wanted something that gave more insight into my lifts and let me plan programs that run across weeks and blocks, not just repeat the same template forever. So I built PR Wiz and added the features I wanted for my own training. You can build programs around percentages of 1RM, organize training into blocks, and run workout sessions based on those blocks. It also surfaces PRs beyond just a new 1RM, which mattered to me because a lot of advanced programs are built around submaximal work. Seeing a new estimated 1RM from a rep PR, or a new max volume PR, can show real progress even when you’re not testing an all-out max. I also wanted things like gear tracking and custom volume coefficients. I go back and forth on using a belt for squats, so being able to associate gear with lifts was important. And simple weight x reps can be misleading across exercises, so I wanted a better way to account for movements like leg press or bodyweight work. If you lift, coach, or just care about training data, I’d really love to hear what you think.
