Bakit kami umiiral

Karamihan ng coaching, sa effort nakatuon.
FormForge, sa alignment nakatuon.

Pinakamabilis bumuti ang performance kapag ang movement, isip, at environment ay sinadyang dinisenyo — hindi pinabayaan sa swerte. Ang pangako namin: walang grind culture, physics-informed progress lang. Boring, repeatable strength na umaayon sa totoong buhay mo.

🏋 Itinayo para sa abalang buhay.

Work. Grad school. Heavy lifting. Family. Your time is the budget, not your motivation. Tim built FormForge while finishing his PhD, defending his thesis, and prepping for a sanctioned meet — so the system you train inside is the same one he tests on himself.

🧠 Pagtatayo ng kapasidad nang walang burnout.

Joint-first exercise selection. Athlete-safe language. Trends over scores. "If the week feels like too much, your first 'win' is trimming, not quitting — this plan is meant to bend with your life."

Ang P → F Framework

Mula agham hanggang performance — tatlong disiplina, tatlong outcomes.

Sa FormForge, ang "forge" ay aktibong paghubog at pagsasanib ng agham sa performance ng tao. Sinasalin namin ang Physics, Physiology, at Psychology sa Fab Form, Fit, at Flow — sa pamamagitan ng sinadyang disenyo, evidence-based feedback, at coaching na nakasentro sa tao.

PHYSICS → FAB FORM

Kalidad ng estruktura.

Bar path, joint sequencing, force timing. Engineered for power and durability. Larger moment arms require more force to move the same weight — so we measure them.

PHYSIOLOGY → FIT

Personal na alignment.

Body × task × context. Objectively measured, coach-interpreted. Different lifters need different geometry — your hips, your levers, your fatigue floor.

PSYCHOLOGY → FLOW

Inhinyerong kalmado.

Mental rhythm, motivation, confidence. Designed through pacing, feedback loops, and habit formation. Not accidental. Forged.

Ang ibig sabihin ng "Forge" sa FormForge.

To forge is to actively shape through intention. We synthesize three disciplines (Physics, Physiology, Psychology) into three outcomes (Fab Form, Fit, Flow). Not gimmicks. Not generic. Engineered.

Dalawang track · isang agham

Piliin ang on-ramp na umaayon sa buhay mo.

Both tracks are joint-respectful, science-backed, and built for busy brains. Your assessment tells Tim which to start with — and you can layer the second once your base + schedule feel steady.

DEFAULT · SAFE ON-RAMP

  • Clean patterning + easy pulls
  • Jerk skills + overhead patterning
  • For: experienced lifters · Olympic-curious athletes · meet preppers
Not sure which? Start with Strength Foundations — it's the joint-friendly home base. The Weightlifting Pathway is a fun optional layer once your base and schedule feel steady.
Ano ang makukuha mo

Walong tools. Isang disiplina. Buong klaridad sa lifts mo.

Karamihan ng tracker apps mga reps lang ang nai-log. Sinusukat ng FormForge ang kilos — joint by joint, frame by frame — tapos imamapa ito sa peer-reviewed biomechanics para tama ang tinitrain mo sa next session.

📷 Live Form Analyzer

Real-time pose overlay (33 landmarks, 3D) sa phone o laptop camera mo. Bar-path heat-line, joint-angle readouts, side-symmetry delta — walang install.

🎯 Bar-Path Tracker

Color-track ang barbell mo sa kahit anong video na ina-upload. Makuha mo ang vertical-displacement, peak velocity, at Cuban-hook deviation — overlay sa reference rep.

🧬 OpenCap Analyzer

I-drag ang OpenCap CSVs mula sa kahit anong iPhone-pair capture. Auto-segment ng Snatch / Clean / Jerk phases. Magko-compute ng Triple-Extension Speed (TES), catch depth, dip-drive, at L-R symmetry.

🦴 3D Motion Player

Stick-figure skeleton na naka-render sa Three.js na may phase markers, ghost overlay (Rep B), at scrubbable timeline. I-compare ang snatch mo sa pinakamagaling mo — o sa elite reference.

📊 VBT Calculator

Mean propulsive velocity (MPV) → estimated %1RM at load-velocity profile. Camera-only velocity proxy kapag walang Vitruve / Enode.

📓 Smart Tracker

Workout log na may auto-form scoring per set, RPE, e1RM, weekly volume, at PR feed. Naka-store sa device mo — exports sa CSV.

👥 Coach Dashboard

Roster, video review queue, athlete-safe note templates, status updater, at shareable annotated clips. White-label-ready para sa federations.

🔔 Status & Delivery

I-lookup ng athletes ang Job IDs, makita ang queue status, at makatanggap ng results via email/PWA push kapag tinapikan ng coach nila ang “DONE.” Pinapagana ng Apps Script + URLFAM PWA.

Itinayo sa peer-reviewed science

Hindi bro-science. Bio-mechanics.

Bawat metric sa FormForge ay naka-map sa validated research. Kinikita namin ang OpenCap (Stanford NMBL, PLOS Comp Bio 2023), ang BlazePose 33-landmark topology (Google Research), at recent VBT meta-analyses tungkol sa velocity-load profiling.

OpenCap RMSE2–10°vs. marker-based gold standard
Snatch bar speed1.52–1.67 m/sheavy-load reference
Power-clean speed1.20–1.32 m/sheavy-load reference
Pose landmarks33 × 3DBlazePose GHUM Lite

“I got more from one upload than three months of generic programming. The phase markers exposed exactly where my dip-drive was leaking power.”

★★★★★— Beta athlete, 84kg M, snatch +6kg in 8 weeks

“The 3D ghost overlay let my athletes see what ‘good’ looks like. We replaced 40% of cueing with the player.”

★★★★★— Strength coach, masters team

“Finally a tool built by someone who actually understands physics. The asymmetry index caught my hip imbalance before my PT did.”

★★★★★— Engineer, 12-month follower

Ang Agham

Pisika, biomechanics, at AI vision — sa isang workflow.

Tatlong peer-reviewed pillars ang sinasandalan ng FormForge: markerless 3D motion capture, browser-grade pose estimation, at validated velocity-based training. Narito ang ginagamit namin, bakit, at saan basahin ang source.

Tim Jeff Macabuhay Rodriguez · PhD Candidate

Isang physicist na obsessed sa lakas.

Tim is a PhD Candidate in Applied Physics & Materials Science and Engineering. After watching too many lifters injure themselves chasing kilos with bad mechanics, he built FormForge so any athlete with a phone could see their lift the way a scientist sees it: as force, leverage, and geometry over time. No gimmicks. No medical claims. Just objective data, delivered with athlete-safe language.

The stack — what runs under the hood

🦴 OpenCap (Stanford NMBL)

Open-source markerless motion capture using two iPhones. Validated lower-extremity kinematics with RMSE 2.0–10.2° vs. marker-based gold standard.

Uhlrich SD, Falisse A, et al. OpenCap: Human movement dynamics from smartphone videos. PLOS Comp Bio (2023).

🤖 MediaPipe BlazePose

33 3D landmark pose detection running on-device in WebAssembly / WebGPU. Designed for fitness, dance, yoga. Real-time on mid-range phones.

Bazarevsky V, Grishchenko I, et al. BlazePose: On-device Real-time Body Pose tracking. Google Research (2020+).

📈 Velocity-Based Training (VBT)

Mean Propulsive Velocity (MPV) gives a real-time proxy for fatigue and %1RM. Recent meta-analyses show VBT and PBT yield comparable strength gains with VBT improving regulation.

Jukic I, Helms ER, et al. (2024+); PLOS One systematic reviews.

The lift physics — what FormForge measures

Triple-Extension Speed (TES)

Mean magnitude of d(hip + knee + ankle)/dt during the power phase. Higher TES correlates with elite snatch / clean output. Reference: heavy snatch bar speed 1.52–1.67 m/s.

Catch Depth

Maximum knee flexion within the catch window. Tracks both mobility and confidence under load. We compare each rep to your own moving average.

Dip-Drive Quality (Jerk)

Dip depth (deg) and drive speed (rad/s) computed from knee-angle derivative. Athlete-safe flags such as “TES low” instead of “bad rep.”

Symmetry Index

Mean absolute left-right difference for each joint across the rep. Used to flag asymmetric loading patterns before they become problems — never as a medical diagnosis.

No medical claims. FormForge is an educational and performance-coaching tool. We do not diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease. Always consult a qualified medical professional for injury or pain.

Setup tips

  • Place phone at hip height, 3 m away, side-on.
  • Whole body in frame, head to feet.
  • Plain background & good lighting → cleaner skeleton.
  • Use Safari / Chrome on iPhone, or Chrome / Edge on Android.
Bar Path Overlay
Scale: not set — using default 1.6× factor. Set scale for accurate metrics.  |  Mode: idle — pick a flow above.

How it works · 3 modes

  1. 🎨 + ▶ Track (color) — click a bright bar plate, then run. Best for red / blue / yellow rubbers, stationary camera.
  2. 📍 Manual two-point — pause video at frame 0, click bar centre. Scrub to lockout, click bar centre. Get vertical displacement + average velocity. Works on any bar, any background.
  3. 📏 Set scale — click two points of known real-world distance (e.g. plate diameter 0.45 m, athlete height 1.85 m) and enter the metres. All future metrics use that calibrated scale.
Tip: scale set with the lift's actual bar height (e.g. 0.50 m on a deadlift) is the most reliable.

📸 Drop 1–3 screenshots from the same rep

Faster than full-video upload. Lighter on your data. Easier on Tim's review window. Use stills from a vertical phone clip — same rep, different moments (start of pull / extension / catch).

What happens next

  1. You receive a Job ID (e.g. JOB_AB12CD34).
  2. Status moves: QUEUED → PROCESSING → COACH_REVIEW → DONE.
  3. When DONE you get email + URLFAM push with your F³ snapshot (Fab Form · Fit · Flow), Tim's voice note, and your next-session focus.
All uploads are private. Only you and your assigned coach can view them. Files auto-delete after 90 days unless you save them.
Pro tip: 1–3 still images from the same rep are usually enough. The AI flags major patterns; your coach interprets them. "AI assists. Coaches decide. Athletes grow."
