Questions
What is Grease the Groove?
A strength method from Pavel Tsatsouline: instead of one brutal workout, do many easy, sub-max sets of one movement throughout the day. Strength is a skill: practice it often and fresh, and you get better at it. No failure, no soreness.
Will I get sore?
You shouldn't. Sets are ~50% of your max and you stop while it still feels easy. If you're sore, drop the intensity dial a few percent.
How far apart should sets be?
At least 15β30 minutes. The whole point is to stay fresh: never grind two sets back to back.
When do I retest?
About every 2 weeks. Do one all-out set, enter the new number, and Pro auto-bumps your plan. We even show you the date.
Is the free version really free?
Yes. One exercise, the full plan and weekly grid, forever, no account. Pro adds logging, streaks, charts, unlimited exercises and the custom dials.
Can I cancel?
Anytime, one click, from the billing portal. The 7-day trial means you're never charged before you're sure.
