HOW IT WORKS

Log your climbs fast. Tap grade, wall angle, effort, style, and attempts. Done in seconds.
Your Climb Readiness Score (CRS) updates automatically based on recovery time, training load trends, cumulative fatigue, and volume patterns.
Your Load Ratio tracks acute vs. chronic workload, the same metric elite coaches use to predict overtraining and injury risk.
Overtraining warnings alert you when your body needs rest, before you get hurt.

WHY POGO EXISTS
44% of indoor climbers experience overuse injuries. Most have no system for managing training load, often relying on how they feel, climb too hard too often, and end up injured. POGO fixes that.
POGO doesn't tell you what to climb. It tells you how much your body can handle today, with data-backed guidelines to help you find the right dose for steady progression. POGO helps climbers reduce their risk of overtraining so they can climb more and continue progressin
