Frequently Asked Questions - AI Personal Training

These answers explain how Carbyne Lab works as both a public fitness resource and a progressive web app for workout tracking, nutrition logging, motion analysis, trainer-client communication, and upcoming gym access features. The goal is to make account, coaching, and data decisions clear before you sign up.

What is free?

Core workout, nutrition, and body-metric logging are available without a paid plan. Premium features such as Motion Lab, AI Chat, program generation, and trainer dashboard capacity depend on the selected plan or trainer relationship.

How does trainer linking work?

A trainee can link to a trainer with a trainer code or invite. Once linked, the trainer can review workouts, nutrition, body metrics, and messages so coaching decisions are based on actual logs instead of memory.

What should Motion Lab be used for?

Motion Lab is designed for practical movement feedback such as rep counting, rhythm, visible range of motion, and broad technique signals. It is not a medical diagnosis and should not replace a qualified coach or clinician when pain or injury is involved.

How are nutrition estimates handled?

Photo meal logging and calculators give starting estimates. Users can edit values before saving, and progress should be reviewed from trends over several days or weeks rather than one meal or one weigh-in.

Can I use the public calculators without an account?

Yes. The 1RM, strength, TDEE, macro, and one-rep-max calculators are public tools. The related guides explain how to interpret the numbers conservatively before changing a training plan.

Who reviews the education content?

Carbyne Lab's fitness education is written or reviewed by Brian Chang, IFPA Master Personal Trainer, with a focus on practical training decisions, clear scope, and safety-conscious guidance.

Training and health scope

Carbyne Lab provides fitness education, logging tools, and coaching support. It does not diagnose injuries, prescribe medical treatment, or replace care from a doctor, physiotherapist, dietitian, or other licensed professional. If pain is sharp, worsening, associated with swelling or neurological symptoms, or affects daily life, stop the aggravating activity and seek appropriate professional advice.
