FitQuest
Training that knows
what you're rehabbing
Most fitness apps ask about your goals. This one asks what hurts, then refuses to program the thing that would set you back.

Why FitQuest
Every training app is built for a body with nothing wrong with it.
That is not most of us. Something is usually a little off: a knee, a shoulder, a week of bad sleep. FitQuest keeps you moving on weeks like that, with a plan that changes when you do.
It asks what hurts
Tell it about an injury and it screens for 44 conditions, leaves out the lifts that would set you back, and adjusts the rest of the plan around it.
It shows you what is next
Every lift gets a rank from Bronze to Grandmaster, scored for your bodyweight, age and sex, along with the exact weight that gets you to the next one.
It fits the week you are having
A twenty-second check-in on sleep, soreness and mood shapes your next session. Skip a day or take a lighter week and the plan picks back up where you left it.
See it think
Two injuries in the same tendon. Opposite treatment.
Real entries from the app's condition library — tap between them.
Pain in the cord itself, a couple of inches above the heel bone.
Box jumps, depth jumps, hops, hill running
Heel drops off a step, through FULL range — the heel traveling below the toes is the treatment.
Full-range heel drops are the cure here.
Pain right where the tendon attaches to the back of the heel.
The same jumps — and dropping the heel below the toes
Calf raises at floor level only. Rise high, lower until the heel touches, stop there.
The exact exercise that cures the tendon above will make this one worse.
A tear at the BACK of the socket. Pressing is the provocative direction.
Bench, dips, deep push-ups, cross-body cable work
Face pulls and chest-supported rows — pulling the humeral head back into the socket.
Overhead is comparatively safe, which is the reverse of the usual shoulder advice.
A tear at the FRONT of the socket, usually after a dislocation.
Wide-grip bench, deep flyes, anything caught overhead at speed
Keep the elbows in front of the body. Pulldowns to the front, never behind the neck.
Same joint as the tear above, opposite direction, opposite advice.
For the weeks that are hard
A goal built around showing up, not peaking.
Pick it and the whole app changes what it asks of you.
A floor version of every session
Ten minutes of walking, or one set of each movement. It counts as done — because on a flat day the real choice is between the floor version and nothing.
Easy aerobic work, three days a week
Conversational pace. Early in the day and outdoors where your schedule allows. It does not have to be hard to be doing its job.
Maintenance calories. Never a cut.
A deficit is a stressor, and this is not the month to stack one on. The one thing this goal will not do is put you in one.
General training and nutrition guidance — not medical advice, and not a substitute for care from a professional.
