Terms of Use & Health Disclaimer

1. Agreement to these terms

Swull is operated by Swull Strength LLC, an Arizona limited liability company ("Swull," "we," "us"). By creating an account or using the Swull Strength website and app, you agree to these Terms of Use and Health Disclaimer and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2. Eligibility — you must be 18 or older

You must be at least 18 years old to use Swull. By using the app you confirm that you are 18 or older. Swull is not intended for and may not be used by anyone under 18.

Swull is currently intended for users located in the United States. We make no representation that the service is appropriate or available for use in other places, and if you use it from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for complying with local laws.

3. Training & Health Disclaimer — educational purpose only

Everything Swull generates — workouts, weights, rep targets, progressions, run paces and distances, race plans, and race-day fueling and carb-loading suggestions — is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is produced automatically by software, is not individualized medical or dietary advice, and is not a substitute for professional judgment. Swull does not provide medical, physical-therapy, nutritional, or healthcare services, and no coach-client or provider-patient relationship is created by your use of the app.

Fueling and carb-loading suggestions are general amounts estimated from information such as your body weight. They do not account for medical conditions, allergies, or medications. If you have diabetes, a digestive condition, a history of disordered eating, or any other condition affected by what or how much you eat, talk to a physician or registered dietitian before following them.

4. Consult a professional before you start

Resistance training, running, endurance training, and races (including obstacle races) carry inherent risks. Before beginning or changing any exercise program, entering a race, or acting on anything Swull suggests, you should consult a qualified physician — especially if you are pregnant, under a doctor's care, recovering from injury or surgery, or have any cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, metabolic, or other medical condition. Stop exercising and seek appropriate medical attention if you experience chest pain, fainting or severe dizziness, unusual shortness of breath, severe or sudden pain, or any other symptom that may indicate a medical emergency.

5. Automated recommendations

Swull's recommendations — including the specific weights, run paces, distances, race plans, and fueling amounts it puts in front of you — are generated by algorithms from the information you provide, such as your lifts, runs, history, body weight, and equipment. Swull cannot determine whether a suggested weight, exercise, pace, distance, or amount is safe for you on a given day, and it does not know about the weather, terrain, or course conditions you will face. Its recommendations can be incomplete, delayed, or wrong. Always apply your own judgment: a suggestion is never a command, and you should never attempt a weight, exercise, pace, or distance you believe is unsafe or beyond your current ability.

6. Assumption of risk

You understand that resistance training, running, endurance training, racing, and following any training plan involve a risk of serious injury, including injuries related to overexertion, heat, and dehydration. You voluntarily assume all such risks. You are solely responsible for training within your limits, using proper form and appropriate safety equipment (including spotters and safeties), selecting loads, paces, and distances that are safe for you, training safely around traffic and weather, following the rules and safety instructions of any race you enter, and deciding whether to follow, modify, or ignore any suggestion Swull makes. Swull is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any race, race organizer, or event, and race names you enter are for your own planning.

7. Accounts and acceptable use

You are responsible for the activity on your account and for keeping your login secure. You agree not to misuse the app. In particular, you will not attempt to access accounts or data that aren't yours; interfere with, disrupt, or attack the service; scrape, reverse engineer, or copy the app except as the law allows; or use Swull for any unlawful purpose.

8. Intellectual property

Swull — including the app, its name and branding, its programming logic, and the way workouts are generated and presented — belongs to Swull Strength LLC and is protected by law. These terms give you a personal, non-transferable, revocable permission to use the app for your own training; they do not transfer any ownership to you.

9. Your information

You retain any rights you have in the information and content you provide to Swull. You give Swull Strength LLC permission to host, store, process, reproduce, and otherwise use that information as reasonably necessary to operate and provide the service, as described in our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter (for example, your starting weights). Swull is not a backup service: although we work to keep your data safe, data can be lost or corrupted, and we are not responsible for lost data. Keep your own records of anything that matters to you.

10. Third-party services

Swull runs on Google Firebase and sends some emails through Resend. You can also upload workout files exported from devices or apps such as Garmin; Swull does not connect to your accounts with those services. Your use of other services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for them.

11. Subscriptions and payments

Swull currently has no paid features. If we introduce subscriptions or purchases, we will show the applicable pricing, billing, and refund terms at that time, and this section will be updated.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

Swull is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any particular result will be achieved.

13. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Swull Strength LLC and its members, managers, employees, and contractors will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or related to your use of the app. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the total liability of Swull Strength LLC and its members, managers, employees, and contractors for all claims arising out of or related to these terms or your use of the app is limited to the greater of fifty U.S. dollars (US$50) or the amount you paid us for the app in the twelve months before the claim arose. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. If you follow the app's advice or training plans, you do so at your own risk.

14. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to cover and hold harmless Swull Strength LLC and its members, managers, employees, and contractors from claims and expenses that arise out of your misuse of the app or your violation of these terms.

15. Termination

You may stop using Swull at any time, and you can delete your account and data from within the app. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or misuse the service. The provisions that by their nature should survive — including the disclaimers, assumption of risk, limitation of liability, and indemnification — continue to apply after your account ends.

16. Changes to the service

We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any part of Swull at any time.

17. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we materially update them, we will email the address on your account at least 14 days before the changes take effect, update the effective date at the top of this page, and may also ask you to review and accept the new version in the app. Continuing to use Swull after an update takes effect means you accept the revised terms. If you do not agree to an update, stop using Swull and delete your account.

18. Severability & entire agreement

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, make up the entire agreement between you and Swull Strength LLC regarding your use of the app. Swull Strength LLC may assign or transfer these terms, including as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these terms without our written consent.

19. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or related to these terms or your use of Swull will be resolved in the state courts located in Maricopa County, Arizona, or the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, except where the law of your place of residence gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere.
