Workout accountability

A training partner in your texts: checks in before, follows up after, and keeps the streak honest.

The gym buddy who shows up every time. Tell Pally your training plan and it checks in on workout days, asks how it went, keeps your streak, and won't let a skipped week slide quietly.

The routine

How it works

Tell Pally your plan and how firm to be: which days you train, what sessions, and whether you want a gentle check-in or pushback when you waver.

On training days Pally checks in at your time with the session and your streak, then follows up after and logs what happened from your reply.

You set the streak rules: a missed session resets it, a rest day or sick week doesn't. Ask any time for the bigger picture, like which workout you skip most.

A useful fit

Good for

  • Making a workouts-per-week goal survive a busy month
  • A pre-gym nudge at the hour you decide
  • Logging sessions by replying instead of opening an app
  • Keeping a streak that treats rest days fairly
  • Seeing which planned workout you always skip

Text it naturally

Before you start

Common questions

How is this different from the friendly nag?+

The nag pushes one task to a finish line and stops. This is a standing training partner: it knows your weekly plan, checks in before and after sessions, and keeps your streak across weeks.

How hard will Pally push when I want to skip?+

As hard as you ask. Some people want one reminder and no guilt; others want their own excuses quoted back. Set the tone up front and change it any time.

What counts as keeping the streak?+

Your rules. You set the weekly target, what counts as a session, and what pauses the streak, like illness or travel. Pally applies them and tells you plainly where you stand.

Keep going
