How the first two weeks run
Each day your client trains, Kovo gives them the next routine. After the last one, it starts again.
Each exercise name opens its page in the Kovo exercise library.

Questions about Strength 5x5
Who is Strength 5x5 for?
The Kovo library marks Strength 5x5 as Intermediate: clients who already know the squat, bench press and deadlift. For newer clients, Full Body 3x or Beginner Full Body is a gentler start.
Why is the deadlift only one set?
Strength 5x5 is written with one working set of 5 on the deadlift. You can add sets in your own copy.
Where do the weights come from?
Every weight in the program is empty, so Kovo picks one for each client from their own workouts and adds weight as they get stronger. Type a weight on any set to use exactly that.
