Questions

How does it work?

Open the app. It tells you the weight, sets, and reps. You lift. It adjusts your next session based on how it went.

Will my weights actually go up?

Yes. Strena adds weight when you are ready and holds back when you are not. You do not have to guess or do math.

What lifts does it cover?

Squat, bench, and deadlift. Each one progresses on its own so nothing holds anything else back.

What equipment do I need?

Barbell, plates, rack, and bench. Standard gym stuff.

What if I have been stuck at the same weight for months?

That is exactly who this is for. Most plateaus are not about strength. They are about bad programming. Stalls get unstuck.

Do I need to know what I am doing?

If you can safely squat, bench, and deadlift, Strena handles the rest. You bring the effort, it brings the plan.

What does it cost?

Free trial, no card required. After that, 4.45 per month. Yes, a subscription under five bucks in 2026. Built by a powerlifter, not a corporation.

What makes this different from a workout tracker?

A tracker records what you did. Strena tells you what to do next. It is a program, not a notebook.

Show Up. Lift What It Says. Get Stronger.

Strena handles the programming so you can do the one thing you actually came to the gym for. Free trial, no credit card required.
