Lift heavy. Post honest. Lift each other up.
- Post your own real lifts, recorded in Klank.
- Respect everyone in the gym, on camera and off.
- Hype people up. Critique form kindly, or not at all.
- Zero tolerance for harassment, hate, nudity and anything that puts people at risk.
01Keep it real
Leaderboards only mean something if the lifts are real.
- Post your own lifts. Don't post someone else's video as yours.
- Log accurate weight, reps and bodyweight. Don't round up, mislabel plates, or count partial reps as full ones.
- Don't manipulate ranks, XP, votes or leaderboards, including with second accounts, coordinated voting or automation.
- Community votes are for honest opinions on a lift, not for targeting people you don't like.
02Respect the gym
- Only film people who have agreed to be filmed. If someone's in the background, frame them out.
- Never film in locker rooms, changing areas, restrooms or anywhere filming isn't allowed.
- Follow your gym's rules about filming and equipment.
- Don't share someone's private information, like their full name, address or schedule, without their permission.
03Be a good training partner
- No harassment, bullying, threats or intimidation, in comments, DMs, Callouts or anywhere else.
- No hate speech or attacks based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age or body type.
- No body-shaming. Every lifter started somewhere.
- Form feedback is welcome when it's kind and useful. Mocking isn't.
04Keep it appropriate
- Gym clothes are fine. Nudity, sexual content and sexually suggestive content are not.
- Anything that sexualizes minors is strictly prohibited. We remove it, ban the account and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
- No graphic violence or gore.
05Safety first
- Don't encourage dangerous lifts, unsafe challenges, or ignoring injuries.
- No content that promotes self-harm, eating disorders, extreme cutting or dehydration.
- Don't promote, sell or trade steroids, other performance-enhancing drugs, illegal drugs or prescription medication.
- If someone seems to be in danger, report it. If it's an emergency, contact local emergency services first.
06No spam, scams or impersonation
- Don't impersonate other people, brands or Klank staff.
- No spam, repetitive posting, engagement bait, pyramid schemes or misleading links.
- Don't sell products or coaching in comments or DMs to people who didn't ask.
- Callouts and leagues are for bragging rights. No betting or money involved, ever.
07Usernames and gym names
Usernames, display names and gym names can't contain slurs, profanity, sexual references, or someone else's identity or trademark. We filter offensive names automatically and may change names that slip through.
08Reporting and enforcement
Tap the ••• menu on any profile, lift, comment or message to Report or Block. Blocking is instant and works both ways. Our team reviews reports and acts on objectionable content within 24 hours.
Depending on what happened, we may remove content, hide a lift from leaderboards, reset ranks, limit features, suspend an account or ban it permanently. Serious violations lead to an immediate ban. We may also contact law enforcement when someone's safety is at risk.
