With our app we try to create an environment where everyone can go for quality content about fitness, nutrition and lifestyle.

Your daily exercise and diet play an important role in this.

We are therefore going to work with a weekly exercise goal and a weekly calorie goal in the app. These goals are tailored to the information obtained (height, weight, preferences, etc.)

The intention is that you enter consumed products in your food diary, without exceeding the assigned weekly goal. In addition, you strive to achieve your weekly movement that can result from our training sessions or from other activities (running, cycling, etc.).

Your weekly goal is the calories you want to be around each week to achieve your chosen goal. When these are exceeded, your progress will slow down (or stagnate).

Your daily goal is the sum of everything you consumed on the selected day. You can exceed your daily goal, but still reach your weekly goal (by eating less on the other days).

Your food diary consists of breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Here you can add products that you will consume (or have consumed). An agenda is linked to your eating times. This makes it possible to schedule your products on a desired day.

The more accurate you are with weighing and entering the portions, the better your progress will be.

can always choose from adding a recipe (a complete meal composed by our partners) or from a self-chosen product. Use the ‘recommended portion’ button to get an idea of ​​the portion that fits within your calorie goal.

You can also always create your own product with the button ‘create product’, if your product is not among our lists.

Match the portion size to your hunger. If you are not hungry, it is best to opt for a small portion so that you have more calories left to consume for the rest of the day/week. When your goal is to lose fat, you need to make sure you’re satisfied with as few calories as possible. An easy way to achieve this is to consume lots of vegetables with your meals.

Under the button ‘quickly add’ (the plus sign, at the bottom and in the center of your screen), you can add your weight. A measurement always takes place in your underwear and immediately after waking up. When you have to go to the toilet, weigh yourself afterwards. A weighing is therefore always once a day.

Your progress can be found under the button ‘settings’ (the icon at the bottom right of your screen). When you go to ‘progress’, you get a weekly, monthly and yearly overview of your weightings.

It can happen that you went out to eat and went over your daily calorie goal because of this. This is not a problem if you compensate by eating less on the other day(s). By making your weekly calories visible, you get a good overview of what you can still eat for the rest of the week. This can also be done in the other direction. You can eat less every day because you know that you have a birthday with friends at the end of the week.

You can simply add your snacks to a meal, as long as you add it to your diary. Ideally, you want to stay between 3-5 meals a day so that you are satiated throughout the day. Snacks are low-calorie and hunger-quenching, such as snack vegetables, fresh soup!!, a piece of fruit, corn waffles, a protein bar (<150 kcal), etc.

First and foremost, you want to make sure you weigh yourself daily. This is important to get a good idea of ​​the amount of fat mass you have lost. Look especially at weekly averages of your weight. This is because daily weighings can fluctuate due to many factors (fluid retention, sugars, bowel movements, etc.). By doing strength training you retain your muscle mass better and you can assume that the weight you lose on a weekly basis is fat mass.

We recommend doing at least one other measurement. This can be done by measuring circumference measurements or by skinfold measurements (this is less advisable with a higher fat percentage).

The nutritional information provides an overview of the nutrients you have received per day from your diet. Paying attention to the nutritional information (proteins, fats and carbohydrates) can be useful if you have been keeping track of your calories for a while. For example, focusing on sufficient protein per day can improve muscle growth and thus make fat loss easier.

A good guideline for proteins is to be above 1g per kg of body weight per day. For a person weighing 70 kg, this is 70 g of protein per day. For strength athletes who want to maximize their results, 1.6g per kg of body weight can be used.

Those who would like to go even further in detail can ensure that their fats correspond to at least 1g / kg body weight. The remaining calories then go to carbohydrates.

With our search function you can search for a suitable tailor-made training. Choose the materials you have available here (or choose to train with your body weight). You will then receive the training courses that meet your wishes. Every form of sport you do will contribute to your health. So choose workouts that you like.

list of products you get an overview of how many calories can be found in each product. You can then add this to your diary by choosing how many grams you have eaten (or will eat) of it. The amount you will take per day will determine whether your weight will increase, decrease or stay the same.

In the beginning you get a calorie goal that matches your goal and lifestyle (consumption). Try to sit around here as best you can to achieve your goal. Do you doubt how much of a certain product you can eat? Then use our ‘recommended portion’ to discover which portion is right for you.

If your goal is to maximize fat loss, you want to make sure you feel full every meal. Therefore choose products in your meals that give you a lot of volume for few calories (such as fruit and vegetables).

In general, you can say that the more a product weighs, the more it will satisfy you.

For example, you can consume 125 kcal, 20 g nuts or 140 g potatoes.

Neither is superior, but in certain circumstances it can be smart to opt for the potatoes (because you can eat 7x more of them for the same amount of kcal).

You can use our button ‘recommended portion’ per product to get an idea of ​​the portion that fits within your daily goal.

The number of calories you take in will determine whether you lose weight or gain weight. If your weight does not drop, you are still eating too many calories. Even though the calories come from ‘healthy products’, the body does not distinguish between them. TOO MANY calories are stored as fats resulting in body weight gain.

Aim for a diet in which 80% consists of unprocessed products that provide you with fiber, vitamins and minerals. For the remaining 20% ​​you can supplement with products that ensure that your diet remains pleasant. These can also be unhealthier products (chocolate, sweets, pizza, chips,..).

Losing fat mass happens by eating less than your body consumes, regardless of whether you get these calories from healthy or unhealthy food. Because we always want to achieve long-term success, it is important that you continue to eat your favorite products. This should of course be done in moderation since ‘unhealthier products’ are often high in calories. Therefore, make it as easy as possible for yourself by mainly choosing healthy food that is low in calories (fruit, vegetables and lean protein sources). Use the ‘less healthy products’ in moderation when you need them.

By weighing your products, you get a better idea of ​​what the appropriate portion size should look like. This offers advantages, especially in the initial phase, which can lead to changes in eating habits, making better choices and eating less.

The goal is that after a while you will be able to make a sound estimate of your portions and make responsible decisions about nutrition. It is best to weigh fats accurately because they are high in calories! You can roughly estimate vegetables and you do not have to weigh them exactly.

Proteins are an important component for muscle maintenance and building and are also very filling and therefore ideal for losing fat mass. Therefore, try to aim for a portion of protein in every meal. Preferably get your protein from lean animal protein sources (fish, meat or eggs) or from dairy products (cottage cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt). If you are vegan/vegetarian, it is advisable to increase your total protein intake and combine multiple plant sources.

Your fats you want to get as much as possible from avocado, fatty fish, olives, eggs because they have the best fat profile and are the most filling. Good supplements are whole dairy products (cheese, whole cottage cheese). If the goal is fat loss, nuts, seeds and oils are less advisable because they are low in satiety and high in calories. This can encourage overeating resulting in weight gain.

Carbohydrates are the main source of fuel for our bodies. You want to get the majority of carbohydrates from: fruits, vegetables, potatoes and whole grain products. This can be supplemented by processed grains (pasta, rice), sugars and syrups. So don’t worry if you give in to some sweetness later. As long as this is done in moderation it will not have a particular impact on the body.

In the section ‘recipes’ you can add a recipe of your choice to your food diary.

With the + and – buttons you can choose a portion size that matches your hunger, and fits within your daily goal.

Not that hungry? Then opt for a smaller portion, because even kcal from ‘healthy meals’ can lead to fat production if your weekly goal is exceeded with them.

Training:

Your Training Goal” can be found on the homepage. Here you can find all your movements of the current week. You will get a total overview of the calories you have burned with your movement. These calories can come from training or from other activities (cycling, running, etc.)

Your weekly calories are calculated based on your chosen training goal. Therefore, aim to meet this goal each week.

Eg. You choose as your goal to work out 4 times a week, and you only work out 1 time. Your progress may slow down because the weekly calories are calculated on (someone who) 4x sports.

Is your training goal not feasible with your lifestyle? Then go to ‘goal update’ in settings, and choose another weekly training goal. This will also adjust your calorie goal.

You can determine the duration of a workout yourself with the search button in the ‘workouts’ section. Any form of exercise will contribute to good health. So a 15min workout every week is better than no workout at all.

Base the number of workouts per week on what fits within your lifestyle. Are you extremely busy? Then start with 1 workout per week and establish a weekly routine so you can keep it up in the long run.

Our workouts consist of long (>30min) and short workouts (<30min). If you have enough time you can opt for a longer workout consisting of a larger number of sets. The more sets you do per week the more effective your muscle growth will be (up to a certain point). The workouts are set up so that a beginner can opt for 1 workout per week and an advanced athlete can go for 5 workouts per week. More will be negative for muscle growth for 90% of people.

Recovery is an important part of muscle growth. By giving a muscle group a rest after a workout, you give it the chance to recover and become stronger as before. This depends on many factors (intensity of training, stress, sleep, etc.).

A good guideline to see if you have recovered enough in your workout is by comparing your weight/reps in your workout. If you perform better in an exercise than in your previous workout, then you may assume that the muscle group has recovered sufficiently.

In general, it is recommended to take at least 1-2 days of rest per week.

After a while you want to have some form of progression in your training. You can do this by doing more reps, taking more weight, taking less rest, etc. The easiest way is to do as many repetitions as possible with good technique. When you have reached a self-selected number of repetitions (usually between 8 and 20), then you can make the exercise more difficult. The easiest way is to add extra weight to the exercise.

No weight available? Then use our ‘bag workouts’ where you can use bottles of water and books to fill the backpack for adding more weight to the exercise.

First of all, make sure you perform the exercise with good technique. Therefore, read the explanation thoroughly and perform the exercise the same as in the video.

In addition, a minimum of intensity is needed to achieve muscle growth. So continue with your repetitions until you can hardly move the weight (or yourself) anymore. Training too far from your limit will do virtually nothing for muscle growth or strength.

A good intensity to train at is to go 1 or 2 repetitions to failure. Failure means you can’t finish the last repetition (your muscle gives up). So ‘1 repetition to failure’ means you stop the repetition before it so you have 1 more repetition in reserve.

By clicking on the right icon (the little man) at the bottom of your screen, you go to settings. Here you can click on exercises and then you get an overview of all exercises per muscle group. You can press on each exercise to see how the exercise is performed. The explanation and involved muscle groups are shown by pressing the ‘info’ button.

By pressing the ‘plus sign’ at the bottom center of your screen, you can add a form of exercise. Select an activity of your choice, and determine its duration. The calories consumed will be added weekly under ‘Your Workout Goal’.
