What's New in 5/3/1 Workout Manager

1.0.2

February 3, 2016

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Changes: Increased font size Display fixes for iPhone 4/4s Warm up is now properly 5-5-3 rather than 5-5-5 Please rate and give feedback, I will never put in ads or popups asking you to rate the app. I developed this for my personal use, but if enough people are interested I will add more 5-3-1/BBB variations, or possibly the ability to build your own workout plan. I have another update coming in the near future that: Clarifies some confusion people have had with what the weights you are setting are (it's your one rep max) Allows you to undo a set by clicking on it again. Allows you to disable the second set of cardio (like squats on bench day) Thanks! Chris

User reviews

Perfection

Much like the other 5 star reviews, I appreciate how simple and easy it is to use this app and incrementally increase my lift weights… I’m not one for doing even simple calculations while prepping or working out so this has really helped me a lot!

Great potential but hard to use outside the US

This app seems awesome! Minimalist and to the point. I really would love to use it but it is not possible to use Kg instead of lb. While putting the Kg values instead of lbs seems an option then the rounding is at 5lbs as opposed to the 2.5Kg. Another nice feature could be to allow to change the second cardio (e.g. pull up on first day, leg rise on second day and so on)

I mean… it’s kinda awsome

I just like that it’s simple. Hoping it is raising my max after week 4.

Simple and straightforward, near perfect

If you could add kgs this would be perfect.

Great 5/3/1 plan

Love the app. Simple and easy to use. A calculator would be cool.
