BulkForged — Lifting Coach

Requires the BulkForged phone app and a BulkForged account. The phone app is on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bulkforged.app Android today. iPhone owners can join the waitlist at https://bulkforged.com/apply -- there is no iPhone app to install yet. Make the account in the app, then pair. Pairing itself takes about a minute and happens entirely on the watch. BulkForged puts your next set on your wrist. Strength training and gym workouts, logged from the watch: sets, reps, weight and reps-in-reserve, with no phone in your hand and no connection needed. The BulkForged phone app runs a progressive-overload engine that decides what you lift next -- double progression, applied for you, exercise by exercise. This watch app is the wrist half of it: your routines arrive on the watch, you log every set from your wrist, and finished sessions flow back. ON THE WATCH - Guided sessions - your routine, exercise by exercise, with the prescribed weight and rep range for the set you are on. - Log from your wrist - weight, reps and reps-in-reserve. - Rest timer between sets. - Cardio bouts - indoor or outdoor, with GPS distance and calories outdoors. - Bodyweight logging. - Deload-aware - during a deload week the watch simply prescribes the lighter numbers. - Fully offline - start, run and finish a workout with no phone and no connection. Everything queues and syncs when a connection returns. - An equal peer to the phone - a workout started on either device shows on the other, set for set, while it is still in progress. FOR LIFTERS Barbell, dumbbell, machine, cable and bodyweight work -- push/pull/legs, upper/lower, full body, or a split of your own. The phone app builds the plan and moves the targets; the watch runs the session. SETUP In the phone app open Settings, then Account, and tap Generate pairing code. On the watch open BulkForged and choose Pair to enter the 8-digit code. Pairing happens on the watch, so the Connect Mobile app-settings screen is never needed. WHY THESE PERMISSIONS - Communications - talks only to BulkForged's own sync service, to pull your routines and upload finished sessions. Workouts run fully offline. - Positioning and FIT - GPS distance and calories for outdoor cardio only. Indoor cardio never turns GPS on. - Sensor History - reads the Body Battery and stress history already on your watch to show a training-readiness signal. Runs on 41 Garmin models - fenix 6, 7 and 8, epix, Enduro, MARQ and Forerunner. BulkForged is a training tool, not medical advice. Train within your limits.

Adds the fēnix 9 family to the store listing: fēnix 9 43mm, fēnix 9 47mm / 51mm, fēnix 9 Pro 43mm / 47mm / 51mm, and fēnix 9 Pro Solar 47mm / 51mm — seven products, 48 declared in all. No behaviour change; the same build as 1.0.9 compiled for the wider list. Garmin added these devices to the Connect IQ SDK Manager on 2026-08-25, and every one of them carries the round display, five-key input and 768 KB watch-app budget the app already targets. The layout suite passes on all seven screens, including the one glass size new to the list: 466px on the 9 Pro 51mm. The 9 Pro Solar's 260/280px MIP panels are sizes the fēnix 6, 7 and 8 entries already covered.
