Mountain progress
Every workout pushes a climber up Mt Cook, Everest, Denali, even Mars. Visual, not arbitrary.
Ascend turns lifts, runs, water and meals into elevation. See real progress on a real mountain — not another spreadsheet that guilts you.
You log a workout. The bar moves a pixel. The app forgets you tomorrow.
You set a goal. The app pings you to drink water. You uninstall by week three.
Ascend ties every rep, lap and meal to a mountain you're actually climbing. Miss a day, the climber slides. Hit a streak, you punch through clouds.
