HOW SURPASS WORKS

FAQ
A clear answer to the questions that matter before your next training block.
Is Surpass only for bodybuilding?
Surpass is built for hypertrophy-first training, but it works well for lifters who care about strength progress as part of building muscle.
How is Surpass different from a basic workout tracker?
Most workout trackers store what you did. Surpass turns that history into a next load and rep target on the set you are about to do.
Can I import from Hevy?
Yes. Surpass includes a Hevy import path for workouts, routines, exercise notes, and set context so your existing log can keep working on day one.
Does Surpass replace a coach?
No. Surpass will not coach your form. It helps you run the workout: targets, rest, progression, and training history while you are in the gym.
Does it work for advanced trainees?
Yes. You keep the program. Surpass shows last time, a next-set target, and an all-time PR alert while you log. Optional Pro adds auto-progression, adaptive programs, and insights.
Is Surpass free?
Logging, routines, personal records, and CSV import are free, with no account. Surpass Pro is optional: in the US App Store on 5 October 2026 it was $59.99 a year or $12.99 a month, with a 7-day trial. Apple shows the local price in the subscription sheet.
Where is my workout data stored?
Workout history is stored locally on your iPhone. Surpass does not require a user account to start training. See the privacy policy for the full data-handling summary.
