Warrior II Alignment Check

Is your warrior ii actually aligned? Prop your phone up and find out — GoodReps watches your knee angle (hip → knee → ankle) live and times the hold only while your form is right, as you work your quads and glutes, with shoulders and core assisting. Free, in your browser, processed entirely on your device.

HOW TO HOLD A PROPER WARRIOR II

Setup  Face the camera, feet wide apart, front toes forward, back foot turned in.

  1. Bend your front knee until it stacks over the ankle.
  2. Reach both arms out at shoulder height, gaze over the front hand.
  3. Keep the back leg straight and strong; hold, then switch sides.
Form cue: Front knee over ankle, arms level

This is the same instruction sheet you’ll find on the ⓘ panel inside the app — with an animated demo next to it.

How The Check Works

THREE STEPS TO A SCORED HOLD

1

Prop your phone and get in frame

Set your phone at roughly torso height and stand facing the camera. The built-in camera test confirms your lighting, distance, and angle with live green checks before you start.

2

The AI locks a 17-point skeleton on you

GoodReps measures your knee angle (hip → knee → ankle) against the pose target (~115°), entirely on your device. No wearables, no mirrors needed. No equipment — a wide stance and something to look at past your front hand.

3

Settle in — the timer only counts real alignment

The hold timer runs while you’re actually in the pose. Drift out of alignment and it pauses (it doesn’t reset) until you find the shape again.

Under The Hood

WHAT THE CAMERA WATCHES

Fix These First

COMMON WARRIOR II MISTAKES

Front knee drifting inward

The knee wants to cave toward your big toe. Press it gently out so it stacks straight over the ankle — that's the alignment the camera is watching.

Stance too short

A narrow warrior is a lunge in denial. Step wide enough that your front thigh can sink toward parallel without the knee passing the ankle.

Leaning over the front leg

The torso stays stacked over the hips — centered between both legs, not tipping toward the front hand.

Arms drooping as you tire

The arms are the first thing fatigue negotiates with. Reach actively through both fingertips, shoulders soft.

Your Data

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Rep counting runs entirely on your device — your camera feed is never uploaded.

Pose detection runs in your browser via TensorFlow.js. Camera frames are analyzed in real time and immediately discarded — nothing is recorded, nothing leaves your phone, and we never see them. Sign-in is optional; skip it and everything stays local.

FAQ

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

How long should I hold Warrior II?

Start with 20–30 seconds a side and build toward a minute. The hold timer only counts time you're actually aligned, so your streak is honest.

Does it work in a home gym or low light?

Run the built-in camera test first — it checks your lighting, distance, and angle with live green checks before you start.

Is my camera feed uploaded anywhere?

No. Pose detection runs entirely on your phone, in your browser. Frames are analyzed in real time and immediately discarded — nothing is recorded, nothing is uploaded.
