MakeWeight Support

MakeWeight enforces NCAA Weight Management Program rules, including minimum wrestling weight (MWW) calculations, 1.5% maximum weekly weight loss, and calorie floors. The app requires a minimum age of 13. All protocols are based on peer-reviewed sports nutrition research. However, we always recommend consulting with your physician or athletic trainer before beginning any weight management program.

Core features like weight tracking, NCAA compliance calculations, hydration logging, and the glideslope planner work fully offline. AI coaching and meal plan generation require an internet connection since they use cloud-based AI.

MakeWeight stores all your data locally on your device. When you use AI coaching or meal plan features, your athlete profile and relevant context are sent to Anthropic's API for processing. Anthropic does not use API data to train their models. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID. Go to Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions on your iPhone, find MakeWeight, and tap Cancel. You'll retain Pro access until the end of your current billing period.

MakeWeight is built specifically for wrestling weight cutting, with NCAA rules hardcoded into the compliance engine. While the nutrition tracking and AI coaching could be useful for other combat sports (MMA, boxing, judo), the regulatory calculations are wrestling-specific.

MakeWeight estimates body fat with the Navy tape formula, a BMI-based estimate, and skinfold calculations — all computed on your device. These are approximate fitness estimates, not clinical measurements. For official NCAA compliance, use hydrostatic weighing, DEXA, or a Bod Pod as administered by your school's athletic department. Progress photos you add are stored only on your device and are never uploaded.

Yes. The Apple Watch companion app includes a phase-aware countdown to weigh-in, weight logging with Digital Crown adjustment, and hydration tracking. Data syncs automatically between your iPhone and Apple Watch.

Go to Profile > Delete Account in the app. This permanently deletes all your local data including weight logs, meal plans, coach conversations, and profile information. This action cannot be undone.
