How heavy should the first sessions be?
Start lighter than you think you need and leave the suggested reps in reserve. The first sessions are for finding stable technique and a repeatable load; the app then suggests the next step from what you log.
3-day barbell / WORKOUT PLAN
A 3-day barbell program for a home gym: squat, bench press, deadlift, row and overhead press across three full-body sessions, with sets, reps and rest.
01 / A REAL GENERATED EXAMPLE
This is the app’s output for a strength goal, beginner experience, three days a week and a 60-minute session budget. It is an example to inspect; your own plan depends on your inputs.
These are working sets. Warm up separately and leave recovery time between sessions. Rest and setup can make a workout take longer than the budget. “Reps left” is an estimate of how many more controlled repetitions you could do; it is not a request to train through pain or technique breakdown.

02 / MAKE IT FIT YOUR SETUP
Three full-body sessions practise the main barbell lifts several times a week, with lower-repetition primary work. Set the rack’s safeties for each lift and choose loads you can control for every repetition in the range.
Start lighter than you think you need and leave the suggested reps in reserve. The first sessions are for finding stable technique and a repeatable load; the app then suggests the next step from what you log.
Open TrainHere and choose your goal, experience, schedule and equipment. Review the resulting program before you start. The link opens the app; it does not preselect this example or replace an existing program.
Record the load and repetitions you actually complete, plus your effort. Use the exercise guide to check how repetitions are counted for alternating or single-side movements. Review the app’s next-session suggestion rather than adding weight automatically.
