Never skip the gym
again.
Get matched into an accountability group of 2–5 lifters by Monday morning. Put a refundable deposit behind your week — hit your target and it comes back. Miss it, and nobody in the group gets theirs back that week. That's the pressure that gets you out the door.
Match me — free for 2 weeks
Every row green and the week clears — everyone's deposit comes back.
The whole system
Pick your standard. Casual, Standard or Strict — how long and how many sets before a session counts. We match you with lifters at the same standard when we can.
Pick your week-one target — workouts, step days, or both — and put a deposit behind it. It's held, never spent. Step days count from your phone's health app (Apple Health or Health Connect), connected in the TRY app — your group forms once it is.
Sunday night, groups form — once you've signed in on the app. 2–5 people, same standard where possible — if you'd otherwise start alone, you're paired with the nearest standard and the group runs on the more lenient one. You start Monday.
Hit your target — your money comes back. Miss it — no one in the group gets their money back. Held deposits ride into the next week until the group clears one. Nothing is ever lost.
Workouts are logged in the app and verified by your group — with a photo of every one. Step days are counted straight from your phone's health data. No honor system, no excuses your group can't see through.
The accountability groups have been a game changer for my weekly consistency at the gym. There’s been many times I normally would not have gone to the gym due to some excuse, but because I was in a group that had consequences to others if I didn’t fulfill my obligation, it pushed me to get to the gym anyways. It’s also been a great way to help me set aside some money for a future expense that I will not be able to buy unless my group and I hit our gym goals weekly!
Groups form Sunday night. If there's no one to match you with yet, you start Monday and they join you as they come in.
"Free" means no subscription for your first two weeks. Your deposit is real money we hold and return — never a fee.
After two weeks, keeping your group takes TRY Pro. Don't upgrade and your deposit comes back in full, automatically.
Life happens. Pull your full deposit out mid-week, no questions asked, up to 3 times — and the group is never punished for it.
TRY never keeps a cent. A card processing fee is added on top of your deposit and shown before you pay; the deposit itself is refundable in full at any time.
The fine print
Who am I matched with?
Lifters at the same workout standard as you when we can, in a same-sex group of 2–5. If nobody at your standard is waiting, you're paired with the nearest one rather than starting alone, and the group runs on the more lenient standard. Everyone sets their own weekly target — workouts, step days, or both. Workouts are logged in the app and verified by the group, with a photo of every workout; step days are counted from your phone's health data.
What if there's no one to match me with yet?
You still start Monday, solo, with your deposit riding your own target. Your group is listed as open, and the first matching person joins you mid-week.
Does TRY keep the money?
No. Deposits are only ever held or refunded — there's no pot and no payouts between members. You can only ever get your own deposit back, and you can pull it out in full, no questions asked, up to 3 times.
What happens after two weeks?
Keeping your group takes TRY Pro. If you don't upgrade, your membership ends and your full deposit is refunded automatically — including anything held over from a missed week.
Do I need the app?
Yes. You sign up and put your deposit down on the web, then download TRY (iOS or Android) and sign in with the same account — your group only forms once you have. Workouts are logged and verified in the app; step days count from Apple Health or Health Connect, connected in the app.
