Which AI clients does LiftTrack work with?

ChatGPT through the official LiftTrack plugin, and Claude through a custom connector. We also publish tested steps for Grok, Perplexity and Gemini Spark, and any other client that speaks MCP connects with the same server URL.

Does connecting cost anything?

Connecting is free, and so is everything your AI reads: your workouts, history, training maxes and weekly training load. Creating workouts and setting training maxes requires LiftTrack Premium. Some AI clients also need their own paid plan, since that is where plugins and connectors live, though Claude allows one custom connector on the free tier.

What does my AI actually see?

Your workouts, completed sessions, exercise history, training maxes and schedule. They are read when you ask a question that needs them. You sign in with your own LiftTrack account, and you can disconnect at any time from your AI client's settings.

Can it change my program on its own?

It builds workouts when you ask, and only then. It is not watching your training between conversations and it does not change anything on its own, so nothing moves in LiftTrack unless you asked for it in the chat.

Do I need a Garmin watch?

No. LiftTrack works as your training record whether or not you own one. If you do have a Garmin, workouts sync to your watch so you can train from your wrist.

ChatGPT LiftTrack connected Sample conversation

What should I do for legs Thursday? Squats felt heavy last week.

Read exercise history · Back Squat

Your last three squat sessions were 3×5 at 100 kg, 3×5 at 102.5 kg, then 3×4 at 102.5 kg. You dropped a rep on the last one. I'd hold 102.5 kg for one more week and add a lighter set after it.

Do it, and save it as Thursday's session.

Created workout · “Lower · Week 4”

Saved to LiftTrack: back squat 3×5 @ 102.5 kg, 1×8 @ 80 kg, RDL 3×8, leg curl 3×12, rest 3 min on the squats. It's in your workouts, ready to train.

If you already plan training in a chat, you know where it breaks

The advice is usually fine. What's missing is a training record your AI can read, and somewhere for the plan to live once you've agreed on it.

“I keep explaining my routine.”

Your split, equipment, training maxes and goals live in LiftTrack. A new conversation retrieves them instead of starting from whatever you remember to recap.

“My plan lives in a chat. My results live somewhere else.”

Workouts your AI writes are saved in LiftTrack as real workouts. The sets you complete land back in the same record.

“It suggests changes without looking at my progress.”

Exercise trends, recent sessions and your weekly training status are there to be read, so a proposed jump has evidence behind it.

Plan. Train. Review. Adjust.

One loop, four steps, and the same training record underneath all of them.

Step 1

Ask for a workout, or a whole program

Your AI pulls your history and training maxes first, then writes the workouts: exercises, sets, weights, rest and RPE.

Step 2

Train the session

It's waiting in LiftTrack as a real workout. Open it and go. Training with a Garmin? Send it to your watch.

Step 3

Results land in your history

Completed sets, weights, reps and volume are kept per exercise. That is the record your AI reads the next time you ask it anything.

Step 4

Adjust with evidence

Ask what to change. The next session is built on what you actually lifted, not on what you said you'd lift three weeks ago.

Give your AI a training history it can use, and a plan you can actually follow

Six things your AI can do once it has the tools.

The conversation becomes the workout

Agree on a session in the chat and it is already in LiftTrack, built out with every set, weight and rest timer. Nothing gets retyped.

Answers backed by sets you actually did

Completed sets and exercise history give your AI evidence for the changes it proposes, including the ones it decides not to make.

Pick up where you left off

A new conversation retrieves your saved workouts, goals and recent performance instead of relying on a recap you have to write out again.

A training log, not a transcript

Workouts, history and progress stay in a real app you can open, edit, repeat and search, instead of scrolling back through old chats.

Switch models, keep your history

ChatGPT and Claude read the same LiftTrack records. Their own conversations and memories don't transfer. Your training does.

The whole training picture

Goals, equipment, training maxes, trends for every exercise, and this week's sets per muscle against your own four week average. That is the context a useful recommendation needs.

The tools LiftTrack gives your AI

Ask for a workout and it builds one into LiftTrack. Ask a question and it reads your record.

Write access

What your AI can create

New workouts, saved into LiftTrack.

Build a workout with exercises, sets, weights, rest timers and RPE targets
Write a week of sessions, or a whole program, in one go
Start your lifts from the training maxes you already have
Set progressions so each session steps up when you hit your targets
Save it into LiftTrack, ready to train or send to your Garmin

Creating workouts requires LiftTrack Premium. Everything in the read column is free.

Read access

What your AI can see

Your training, so it knows what to build.

Read your completed sessions, with exercises, sets, weights and duration
Pull history, volume and estimated 1RM trends for any exercise
Check the training maxes behind your percentage programs
Read your muscle training load: sets per muscle this week against your four week average
See which movement patterns you have trained this week and which you have missed
List what is scheduled this week
Break down any workout you already have
Search the exercise catalog by name or muscle group

Both halves in one conversation.

Claude Sample conversation

Am I doing enough back work this week?

Lats are at 6 sets this week and upper back at 4.5, both under your four week average, and vertical pull is the one pattern you have missed. I'd turn Friday's leg accessories into rows and pulldowns. Want me to build it?

Yes, and keep it under 45 minutes.

Saved “Pull · Friday” to LiftTrack: barbell row 4×8, lat pulldown 3×10, chest supported row 3×12, face pull 3×15. That takes lats to 13 sets for the week and covers vertical pull.
