Evidence-based. Not trend-based.

Salerna Health is built on clinical guidelines, peer-reviewed research, and a patent-pending lifecycle engine validated by 2,000+ automated tests.

Why Rules, Not AI

Most training apps use machine learning or LLMs to guess what you need. Salerna doesn't guess. When your life stage, equipment, injuries, and daily readiness are known, a deterministic rules-based engine produces more accurate, clinically defensible programming than prediction models. Zero latency, zero hallucination, 100% explainable.

Our Foundation

Built on clinical guidelines

We don't invent exercise science. We implement it.

ACSM — American College of Sports Medicine

Guidelines for exercise testing and prescription inform our volume, intensity, and rest period calculations across all training levels. ACSM's position stand on resistance training for healthy adults forms the backbone of our programming logic.

ACOG — American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

Pregnancy and postpartum programming follows ACOG's physical activity guidelines. Trimester-specific exercise restrictions, contraindication screening, and return-to-exercise timelines are directly implemented from ACOG recommendations.

International Evidence-Based Guideline for PCOS (2023)

Our PCOS engine implements recommendations from the 2023 international guideline, including exercise type, intensity, and frequency for insulin sensitivity and symptom management.

NSCA — National Strength and Conditioning Association

NSCA's periodization frameworks guide our 12-week program structures. Exercise selection hierarchy, progressive overload protocols, and training frequency recommendations are all NSCA-aligned.

APTA — American Physical Therapy Association

Injury zone exclusion logic and exercise substitution patterns draw from APTA clinical practice guidelines. Pelvic floor integration for postpartum and endometriosis programming references APTA's women's health section guidance.

Patent-Pending Technology

Salerna's lifecycle-adaptive workout generation system is protected by a provisional utility patent. The patent covers our method of integrating reproductive lifecycle context with deterministic exercise programming, including the real-time reinterpretation of wearable readiness scores through hormonal phase context.

This isn't a cycle tracking app that suggests workouts. It's a strength training engine that treats female biology as a first-class input to programming decisions.

How We're Different

Most Training Apps
Pull workouts from a pre-built library. Same workout for a 25-year-old marathon runner and a 48-year-old in perimenopause. "Personalization" means choosing a difficulty level.
Cycle Tracking Apps
Track your period and suggest "lighter workouts during your period." No actual programming. No exercise selection. No periodization. Calendar-based predictions that don't account for how you actually feel.
Salerna
Generates every workout in real time based on your life stage, cycle phase, equipment, injuries, training history, and daily readiness. Doesn't predict your cycle — you tell us where you are today, and the engine adapts your exercise selection, volume, intensity, and rest periods. Symptoms override calendar math because your body outranks the algorithm.
