What Is Volume Analytics?

Volume Analytics gives you a real-time breakdown of training volume per muscle group across your program — helping you spot imbalances and build better programs.

Volume Analytics is a real-time dashboard inside the Program Builder that shows total sets per muscle group across your program. It helps you ensure balanced programming, catch blind spots, and make data-driven adjustments — all without counting sets manually.


Why Use It

  • Instantly see if a program is balanced — spot gaps or overloaded muscle groups at a glance

  • Catch common mistakes — like too much pushing and not enough pulling, or neglected hamstrings

  • Evidence-based programming — volume is the #1 driver of hypertrophy, so tracking it matters

  • Save time reviewing programs — no need to count sets across every workout manually

  • Build client trust — show the data behind your programming decisions when clients ask "why?"

  • Justify exercise changes — when you add or remove exercises, the volume data supports your reasoning


Muscle Groups Tracked

Volume Analytics tracks total sets across these muscle groups:

  • Upper Body — Chest, Back, Shoulders, Biceps, Triceps, Forearms

  • Lower Body — Quads, Hamstrings, Glutes, Calves

  • Core — Abdominals and stabilizers

Each muscle group displays total sets and a status indicator showing whether volume is Low, Optimal, or High. Visual progress bars make it easy to compare volume distribution across the program.


How to Use It

  • Open Volume Analytics from the Program Builder toolbar

  • The dashboard shows volume for the entire program by default

  • Filter by phase or week to zoom into specific parts of the program

  • Review the status indicators — Low means a muscle group may be undertrained, High means it may be overtrained

  • Use the data to guide decisions about adding, removing, or swapping exercises


Practical Tips

  • Check after building each phase — verify balance before moving on to the next phase

  • Use it for lagging body parts — when a client says their shoulders aren't growing, check if shoulder volume is actually sufficient

  • Compare across phases — verify that volume increases phase over phase to ensure progressive overload is happening

  • Verify AI Command Bar changes — after using a bulk edit command, check Volume Analytics to see the impact on volume distribution

  • Guide deload decisions — use volume data to decide which muscle groups need recovery the most


Open the Program Builder and click Volume Analytics in the toolbar to see your program's volume breakdown.
