## What is Grease The Groove?

"Greasing the groove" is a training technique where you perform an exercise frequently, but without going to failure. Instead the focus is on proper form, increasing neurological pathways and quite simply, getting better at that exercise. Think lots and lots of sets, but low reps.

Once the groove is greased, it can lead to better results in your heavy weightlifting.

This simple app was designed to help you keep track of all those reps you'll be doing. Every time you knock out another set, quickly add it to your daily total.

And if you are trying to grease the groove for several different exercises at a time, the app can keep track of reps for each one.

And if you want to see your progression over time, there's pretty charts for that.

That's it. Simple. Easy.

Get greasing!

### 1/5 — Can’t type in the exercise name.

*2024-08-02*

Tried multiple times.

### 3/5 — Simple but could do with some fixes

*2022-11-19, version 1.0*

Easy to use to be honest, counts reps and you can track progress. Does what you need it too. Found out I had to click and hold on new exercises for a bit to type in the name of the exercise.

### 3/5 — This app is quite good… just needs a bit of love

*2022-06-16*

I enjoy this app because it’s simple and motivates me to do something everyday, even on the most chaotic days. There have been a few times when it seems like it’s about to crash while entering data but then recovers. Also when your phone switches to Dark Mode all the controls disappear until switching back. The app also needs a full edit function for the exercise labels. Currently you can only delete an exercise which would surely delete your rep data along with it. If these issues get fixed the app deserves a 4-star rating.

### 1/5 — Hasn’t been tested properly

*2020-04-30, version 1.0*

Having same problem as other reviewers. I’m using an iPhone XR and there are no UI controls visible which makes the app useless. 
What a shame!

### 4/5 — Good concept

*2020-04-27*

This is a good idea and useful to keep track of your exercise throughout the day. However, it would be nice if it was easier to use one handed when inputting the number of reps performed.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me too

*2020-03-28, version 1.0*

Same issue, screen freezes when I try to type a new exercise

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-03-12, version 1.0*

This app seems pretty broken. I tap “+” and it asks me to enter number of reps. I then can’t leave that screen without quitting the app.
