Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Korean word for "rep" or "repetition" in fitness?
In Korean, one repetition of an exercise is called 반복 (banbok) / 렛 (rep). A group of consecutive reps without rest is called 세트 (seteu). Both terms are central to any Korean-language workout program — if you can recognize these two words you can follow most Korean fitness content.
How does Fitnit work for Korean speakers when the app UI is English?
Fitnit's tracking is visual rather than verbal — the AI watches your body through the phone camera and counts reps automatically, with no text input needed. The terminology guide on this page covers the few English screens you'll encounter (exercise selection, results) so Korean speakers can use the full feature set without UI translation.
What's the Korean term for the macronutrient most people track for muscle growth?
Protein is called 단백질 (danbaekjil) in Korean. For muscle growth and recovery, Korean-speaking lifters typically target 1.6–2.2 g of 단백질 (danbaekjil) per kg of bodyweight per day. Fitnit's nutrition scanner identifies 단백질 (danbaekjil) content from a meal photo — useful when reading nutrition labels in Korean is slowing you down.
How many people speak Korean, and why does it matter for fitness content?
Korean has approximately 82M speakers worldwide. That's a meaningful share of the global fitness community, but most fitness apps and programs are published English-first — so Korean speakers often end up learning English fitness vocabulary out of necessity. This guide flips that: bring the Korean terms you already know, find the English equivalents, and use the app comfortably.
