Weekly training volume calculator

See where your weekly training sets go.

Look beyond a long exercise list. FuelPhysique summarizes planned weekly work by muscle group, using direct sets and fractional contributions from exercises that involve multiple muscles.

Why this tool

Counting exercises can hide how work is distributed.

A split may have different numbers of exercises on different days. Compound movements also involve more than one muscle, so simply counting exercise names does not explain each muscle group's planned workload.

FuelPhysique calculates a weekly set summary from the program's sessions and exercise mappings. Direct contributions and fractional secondary contributions are combined by muscle. This gives you a consistent way to inspect the plan without presenting every secondary contribution as a full direct set.

From first visit to everyday use

How it works

  1. Build a weekly routine

    Choose your training days, equipment and preferences in the workout builder.

  2. Review the generated plan

    Check the exercises and scheduled working sets before saving.

  3. Open Weekly Sets

    Use the plan's Weekly Sets disclosure to inspect the summary by muscle group.

  4. Check the context

    Consider the exercise mapping and training schedule. Use the tracker separately to record completed workouts.

What you can do with it

Muscle-level visibility

See how the scheduled work is distributed rather than evaluating the plan by length alone.

Secondary work acknowledged

Fractional contributions account for secondary muscle involvement without labeling it identical to direct work.

A clear planning reference

Use the same summary when reviewing a generated or saved routine, alongside the actual exercises and sets.

Here, volume means planned weekly sets.

This is not a weight × repetitions calculator, and it does not count only sessions you have completed. The summary depends on the saved program and the exercise catalog's muscle mappings. Unmapped exercises may not contribute to the muscle totals. Fractional credit is a planning model, not a measurement of your individual muscle stimulus.

A target band is guidance within the planner, not a medical limit or a guarantee of recovery or muscle growth. Your tolerance and actual training can differ.

Before you start

Your questions, answered

Does this show what I actually trained this week?

No. It summarizes the planned weekly program. Use workout logs to review completed sessions; planned and completed work should not be treated as interchangeable.

What are fractional sets?

An exercise can give full credit to a primary muscle and partial credit to another involved muscle. The app uses its catalog mappings to calculate those contributions consistently.

Why might an exercise be missing from a muscle total?

The calculation needs a recognized exercise mapping. Unmapped exercises are tracked separately and may not be counted toward a muscle's total.

Is this a separate spreadsheet tool?

No. The weekly set summary is part of the workout planning workflow. Generate a plan and open Weekly Sets to inspect it.
