Training guide

How do you review your lifting form?

Record a set from an angle that shows the full movement, then review one specific part of the lift before the next set. For a squat, that might be depth and control; for a deadlift, it might be your starting position and the path of the weight. Gymscore lets you record or upload a set, receive a form score and movement feedback, and compare your sessions over time. The score is a prompt to look more closely at the video, not a diagnosis or a guarantee that a lift is safe.

What should you do with the feedback?

Choose one adjustment you can apply on the next set, record again, and compare the result. Keep the camera position and exercise setup consistent when you want to compare sessions. Technique varies with the person, movement, load, and goal, so use the video and feedback together instead of chasing a single universal posture. If a movement causes pain or you need individual advice, speak with a qualified professional.

How does form review fit into a training plan?

Form review works best as one part of a repeatable training routine. The American College of Sports Medicine's 2026 resistance training guidance emphasizes regular participation and a plan suited to your goals over complicated techniques. Gymscore combines video feedback with workout planning and progress tracking so you can revisit both technique and training consistency.
