"People keep asking me what I'm on. I just tell them I'm using MuscleCALC. I've gone from 160 pounds to 200 pounds of muscle in a year."

— R. Aquino

Most people don't build strength and muscle as fast as they would like because they don't have a plan, based on a record of past performance. They don't write things down or they have no way to ensure over an extended period of time they are lifting the correct amounts of weight to stimulate muscular growth to occur. Over time, they cannot remember what their body has remembered.

With MuscleCALC, you won't ever guess what weights you need to choose for every exercise you perform. It remembers.

BENEFITS OF USING MuscleCALC

• Improve muscular strength and endurance.
• Maximize muscle mass.
• Automatically track progress over time and across lifting cycles.
• Track strength levels and effectiveness of weightlifting workouts.

The MuscleCALC system uses a simple 3 step procedure for recording your workout and providing an analysis tool for you to build strength and muscularity:

STEP 1: Use the printed Daily Workout Journal to record your workout.

Using the LiftScript™ notation system, record your workout in detail with minimal writing. It's quick and easy.

STEP 2: Record your best efforts in the MuscleCALC Spreadsheet.

Record your best weightlifting efforts, based on the notations in your Daily Workout Journal pages.

STEP 3: Plan your workouts, based on the MuscleCALC Spreadsheet.

Review and print out the MuscleCALC spreadsheet and analyze what you need to do for your next training cycle. (Fold it up, stick it in your gym bag and take it with you to the gym—it's your map to strength and muscularity.)

Sound simple? It is. It works.

Track Your Weightlifting Progess

The Summary feature automatically tracks your weightlifting progress over time or across lifting cycles.

The Performance sheet allows you to display your weightlifting performace by exercise over time (Excel-only). (Please note that this feature is not available to OpenOffice users.)

Track Your Strength

Use the One Rep Max (1RM) Calculator to help you determine the proper weights you should be using in your workout, in order to improve muscular endurance, size, or strength. If the numbers are going up over time, then you are getting stronger. You can try the 1 Rep Max Estimator live on our website to see how our spreadsheet functions.

Using this simple, 3 step procedure, you'll never workout the same again. You'll start thinking about surpassing personal bests with every set you perform (after warmups, of course). It becomes addictive.

The MuscleCALC system will change your body. This system has been used for over two decades with 100% success. Every person who has used MuscleCALC has attained their most muscular level of conditioning after at least 3 months of consistent, dedicated use (given an appropriate diet and rest).

MuscleCALC focuses your entire workout around the central tenet of weightlifting--Progressive Resistance. Except now it has you focusing on maximal exertion of both fast-twitch (Type I) and slow-twitch (Type II) muscle fibers, since you will be attempting to set personal bests across the entire range of repetitions, from low (3-5 reps) and moderate (8-12), to high (15-100).

WHO SHOULD USE MuscleCALC?

• Bodybuilders who want to maximize their muscle mass.
• Powerlifters who want to track their progress across lifting cycles.
• High-school and college athletes who want to improve their muscular strength and endurance.
• Anyone who wants to track their general strength levels and effectiveness of their weightlifting workouts.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

• All of your data is stored in a standard spreadsheet file (XLS), so you can use your data in any other application you want. And, since the data is in a standard format, you'll be able to use this system for decades (spreadsheets aren't going away any time within the next couple decades). We don't lock your data into our system.
• The tracking system is categorized by body part, across 13 worksheets.
  
• Automatic entry of exercises with drop-down selections (no typing required). We've included over 300 free-weight and machine exercises from the Exercise Genie collection.
• Add your own exercises if it's not included—add it once and it appears in the exercise selection drop-down, so you don't have to ever type it again.
  
• Customization and full reporting of tracking cycles.
• Compare the results of two training cycles against each other.
• Filter exercises by name.
• Professionally printed performance results.

WHAT MuscleCALC DOESN'T DO

MuscleCALC is not for electronically recording each of your workouts (that's done on the included paper form) or for creating workouts (that's what Exercise Genie does). Electronically recording each workout is just too time consuming and not worth the effort. The MuscleCALC system, consisting of the paper-based Daily Workout Journal form and the MuscleCALC Spreadsheet puts most of your effort in the gym—not in front of the computer.

WHAT YOU GET

When you purchase and download MuscleCALC you instantly receive the following files:

• MuscleCALC Manual (PDF)
• MuscleCALC Daily Workout Journal (PDF)
• MuscleCALC Spreadsheet (XLS)

Packaged in spreadsheet format, MuscleCALC is compatible with Excel 2003-2010, and OpenOffice (Windows, Mac and Linux).

The spreadsheet is extremely user friendly, so if you don't have any skill with a spreadsheet, you don't have to worry. And if you don't have a spreadsheet program on your computer, you can download a free one.
