Squat Cycle is a simple app for designing and tracking a "Russian Squat Cycle" — an intense training routine designed to increase ones overall lifting ability. The squat cycle implemented here is an approximately six week course, with three sessions per week, that should result in an increase in a single-rep squat by 105% of the lifters current single-rep max. These cycles are designed for squats, but can be applicable to various presses, too.

Squat Cycle does the following:

- Generates a Russian Squat Cycle schedule, based on your current lifting ability (one-rep max is the most accurate, but the app can interpret higher rep lifts into a single-rep lift).

- Lets you track your progress through this cycle, including reminders for rest days.

- Stores past lifting sessions, including actual weight, reps, and sets if they differ from the prescription.
