I build Masheen, a strength training log for iPhone and Android, and I answer for every tool and article on this site.
What I am, and what I am not
I am a software developer. To build the app I had to work through the arithmetic of training: how a one-rep max is estimated, which plates make a weight, when a log says it is time to add load.
I am not a coach, a physiotherapist or a doctor. So the pages here keep to what can be checked: a number, where it comes from, and what the app does with it. Nothing on this site is medical advice, and nothing here covers injury, pain or diet.
How a page is made
- The tools print the app's numbers. A calculator here runs the same maths as Masheen, so the page is a true sample of the app.
- Facts are read at their source. Each article lists its sources and the date each one was read. Where sources disagree, the page gives the range and says so.
- Programs belong to their authors. A named program is described in our own words, with a link to its author. Masheen is not affiliated with any of them.
- Dates are real. "Updated" changes only when the page does.
The full account is in the editorial policy.
Found a mistake?
Write to hello@musthaveappscorp.com with the page and the line. I read every message, and a fix carries a new "Updated" date.
