For hybrid athletes · Free beta now open
Your watch gives you a score. Momentum gives you a session.
Strength, priming and recovery in one plan that adapts to the load you’re actually carrying, so a niggle costs you a session, not a season.
A niggle should cost you a session. Not a season.
Momentum turns your training load into today’s session: what to prime, what to lift, what to pull back and what to release afterwards.
The strength plan that pulls back before your body does.
Every set you log feeds your training load. Spike too far past your four-week average and the next session adjusts. Built for hybrid athletes.

The problem
You don’t lose a block to one bad session. You lose it to the load that built up before it.
The niggle shows up late.
The knee that flares on Thursday was earned over the last three weeks. By the time you feel it, the spike is already behind you.
Your watch stops at the number.
A readiness score of 43 doesn’t tell you what to lift, what to drop or what to do instead.
So the week gets binned.
You skip, guess or push through. Either way the block loses its shape, and you start again.
Load is something you can track. Momentum tracks it, then acts on it.
How it works
One session. Three parts. Nothing left to work out.
Open the app and today’s session is there, with the reason it looks the way it does.
Prime
The activation work that should come before the lifting, chosen for the session you’re about to do.
Build
Your strength work, scaled to the load you’re carrying. Push too far past your four-week average and it pulls back.
Recover
The release work that should follow, in the same session. Not a separate app, not an afterthought.
Why it works
Four things a readiness score can’t do.
Load, not vibes
Every set you log feeds an acute-to-chronic workload ratio. Spike too far past your four-week average and the plan pulls the next session back, before your body does it for you.
Prime. Build. Recover.
Every session ships with the activation that should precede it and the release work that should follow. One plan, one app.
Train around the niggle
Flag a cranky knee or a shoulder and the plan swaps the movement instead of binning the week.
Whatever’s in the gym
The same block generates against a full barbell setup, a pair of dumbbells, or a bench and a band.
Momentum vs your watch
The watch gives you a score. Momentum changes the session.
| Feature | Your wearable | Momentum |
|---|---|---|
| Gives you a readiness score | Yes | Yes, as the reason for today’s session |
| Changes the session | No | Yes, from the load you logged |
| Swaps a movement around a niggle | No | Yes |
| Priming and recovery built in | No | Yes, in every session |
| Works without extra hardware | No | Yes. Your phone is enough |
Keep your watch if you like it. Momentum works from what you log.

Questions
How does the beta work?
Join with your email and tell us which phone you use. iPhone testers get a TestFlight invite, Android testers get a Google Play link. You use the app for your normal training and tell us what works and what doesn’t.
Why do you need my Google Play email on Android?
Google only lets accounts on our tester list install a beta, so the email you give us has to be the one on your Google Play account.
What does it cost?
The beta is free. At launch, Momentum is A$15/month or A$99/year in Australia, with prices elsewhere set in your app store. Beta testers get 25% off the annual plan: A$74.99 in Australia and US$49.99 in the US.
Do I need a wearable?
No. Momentum works from the training you log in the app.
What equipment do I need?
Whatever you have. The same block builds against a full barbell setup, a pair of dumbbells, or a bench and a band.
Where is the beta available?
Australia and the United States. If you’re elsewhere, join anyway and we’ll tell you when your region opens.
What is the app called in the App Store?
It’s listed as “Momentum: Strength & Recovery”.
Is this medical advice?
No. Momentum helps you manage training load. If something hurts, see a physio.
What do you do with my email?
We use it to send your beta invite, beta updates and your tester offer. Unsubscribe any time. See our privacy policy.
