Basic
Your coach sets your plan. The top helps you stick to it.
- Your coach sets you up with a plan
- Every set checked against your coach's targets
- Clear feedback: on target, or what to change
- Stay on plan between coaching sessions
How TruRep works
The training top that checks every rep
Muscle sensors (EMG) show which muscles are doing the work. Motion sensors (IMU) show how you're moving. Together they tell you what went wrong and how to fix it, and every session is saved for you and your coach.
Sense: EMG reads each muscle while the IMU tracks your arms and counts every rep.

What it watches for
It tells you what went wrong, and how to fix it
EMG shows which muscles are working. The IMU shows how you're moving. Put together, they explain the mistake, not just that there was one.
EMG + IMU
The wrong muscle takes over
On bench, shoulders doing the chest's work while the elbows flare: tuck your elbows in.
LEFT / RIGHT
One side does more
One side starts carrying the load as you tire.
IMU
Range and tempo slip
Reps get rushed or cut short, like a press that stops before lockout.
CONTACT
A sensor loses contact
You're told to adjust the top, so a bad reading never counts as a bad rep.
SESSIONS
Every session tracked
Sets, reps and flags are saved, and you see your week at a glance.
COACH
Your coach sees it too
Sessions reach your coach, so the next check-in starts from what happened.
A session
One session, four steps
STEP 1
Fit and calibrate
The coach fits the top, checks every sensor has good contact, and records a short reference contraction for each muscle.
STEP 2
Train as normal
Every set records muscle activity and motion: reps, tempo and range.
STEP 3
Review the set
Results reach the coach's phone over Bluetooth within about 5 seconds of the last rep.
STEP 4
Track progress
Compare sessions over weeks and show clients the changes they can't feel yet.

How Basic works
Your coach plans it. The top keeps you on it.
STEP 1
Your coach sets you up
They fit the top, calibrate it to your muscles and build your plan: the exercises, which muscle each one should work, reps and tempo.
STEP 2
You follow the plan
The app shows today's session. As you train, the top checks each set against your coach's targets.
STEP 3
You stay on track
You get simple feedback after every set. Your coach sees how your sessions went and adjusts your plan.
What the top checks
The things that keep a plan working
TARGET MUSCLE
The right muscle is working
Each exercise has a target muscle. You see straight away if it isn't doing the work.
REPS · TEMPO
Reps and tempo on plan
Reps are counted and timed, so you know you did the set your coach asked for.
FEEDBACK
Simple answers
On target, or one clear thing to change, using your coach's own cues. No charts to read mid-workout.
COACH
Your coach stays in the loop
Every session reaches your coach, so check-ins start from what actually happened.

CONTACT CHECK
Readings you can trust
Poor sensor contact is flagged, so a bad reading never looks like a missed target.

For coaches who want the detail
TruRep Pro
Several EMG channels on each muscle, so you see which part did the work: upper, middle or lower chest; front, side or rear shoulder.
Region by region
Not just the chest. Which part of it.
Pro reads the upper, middle and lower chest separately, on both sides.

TruRep Basic
Customise your top
Step 1: scan your body in the TruRep app
Your inner layer has to fit closely so it reads your muscles accurately. A quick 3D scan on your phone gives us your exact measurements.
- Wear fitted clothingand stand somewhere with good, even light.
- Turn slowly on the spotwhile the app scans you. It takes about a minute.
- Check your measurementsand send them. We make your inner layer to fit.
The TruRep app is coming soon.
