You self-direct
TrainHeroic shines when you follow a coach or train on a team. If you program yourself, Nishaana gives you a full tracker free — no per-program marketplace fee.

Nishaana tells you the exact weight to beat for free, with built-in programs you do not subscribe to one at a time.
You want free tools
Built-in 1RM, TDEE and macro calculators that run in any browser — a working toolkit for self-directed lifters.
You want a daily score
A single 0–100 score blends training, nutrition and recovery into one number that keeps you consistent.
