tensa
a coach that lives in your camera
how it works
your phone counts every rep
prop up your phone or laptop and train. tensa counts every rep you finish.
it calls out your form mid-set
tensa rates every rep as you go, and tells you what to fix on the next one.
it opens your next step
8 good reps in a row is a clean set. do two, at least 20 hours apart, and the next step opens.
why we built tensa
most of us train alone. no coach, no spotter, just a timer and a guess about whether that rep counted.
we wanted a coach who shows up for every set, so we built one around the camera you already own. it counts your reps and tells you when it loses sight of you.
it's early. train with it, break it, and tell us what it got wrong.
