TERRIBLE
THIS IS A TERRIBLE GYM JOURNAL APP.
So far, so good
I literally just downloaded this app this afternoon. I have been searching for an app to allow me to enter my own powerlifting programming and my CrossFit workouts, track progress PR’s, etc. so far Gym Journal seems to fit the bill. I would like to see an option to export the journal, and a little more editing capability on workouts that have already been planned. Once you plan the workout, there is no going back to make an edit, or at least I haven’t discovered it yet. I’m gonna hit the gym in the am, and we shall see how simple the logging process is. Stay tuned…..

Very good...suggestions
Since switching from Android to iOS, I’ve been looking for a workout log/tracker. I used Fitnotes on Android and it was great. Gym Journal is the closest thing I have found. The one suggestion that I have so far is, being able to choose the custom workouts for various days or being able to copy previous workout and paste to new day. I use a series of workouts for various days of the week and would like to be able to choose the workouts that I’ve created versus recreating every workout every day.
Update: I found out how to access and add previously created custom workouts!
1. Go to the day you want to log the workout
2. “Add Workout”
3. In the upper left hand corner, there is a box/file icon, choose it
, It displays your entire workout history
4. Pick from any of the workouts you have either created/used and the app will add it to your daily log, fantastic!
Pros:
Create custom workouts
Label custom workouts
Reps/weight tracking
Calendar/Day tracking
Cons:
None

So close!...
The app is fairly straightforward and has an impressive amount categorized and popular lifts! You can even track cardio fairly easily! However there is some tediousness when it comes to planning my own workouts. I have a couple of workouts that are the same each week and I only increase the weights per rep but as of right now I cannot figure out how to schedule recurring workouts... this feature would be extremely helpful as I don’t have a trainer linked to my account or setting my workouts. Typing the same workouts every week with 5+ exercises with 4-5 sets each is not a valuable use of my time :/ excited to see future updates however this doesn’t quite meet the mark for me yet.

Ok
Very glitchy at times . It has my name wrong in my profile and when I click “edit profile” to make the change then save its still incorrect. Not the end of the world but it’s annoying I can’t even fix my own profile name
Good but not enought
I a great app but you should do an update
Has potential
I’ve been looking for a good journal to track my progress. This seems to be the best for creating workouts, but right now the biggest issue is setting the time of the workouts. If I want to go back and add a workout I don’t seem to have the ability to set the workout to the correct time. Opening the the tab to adjust displays nothing, and if you repeat opening the tab the app crashes. As I said, it has potential.

Need help
How do I delete my account?
I rushed through set up and my name is misspelled and I want to correct it.
I can’t do it in edit profile, nor can I delete it and restart a new one.
Needs a place to make changes inside the app.

Doesn’t work
It always closes. This app is completely useless and is not a real gym journal.
Response from developer
Hey Barbara, We are so sorry the app wasn’t working well for you. Could you please reach out to franco@gymjournalapp.com to tell us more about what you were experiencing. We would love to know more and be able to correct any issues you encountered. Thanks
Awesome
Easy. Simple. Good workout tracker
Confusing to use
Couldn't log a workout no matter what I did or what info and options I chose. 'Add workout' button just remained gray. I don't know if this a bug. Deleting the app.
Response from developer
Sorry for the confusion. The "Add Workout" button remains gray until all required inputs for that workout are completed. We have had this concern in the pass and are working on making it more obvious which fields remain to be completed. Hope you give us another chance soon.
Not very straightforward
Maybe I’m really dense, but I just cannot plan a workout with this app. I simply want to create a workout, say “leg day”, put in each exercise, record my statistics, and that’s it. I wish there was a video that shows how to do that, but the website doesn’t help- it’s just push the app. I got it for the high rating, but like I said, maybe I’m just mentally challenged. I’d love to score it higher, but until I know how to use it I won’t. How about a little video support?

Thank you for your review! We are working on creating a "How To" series on the website. In addition, a blog with tons of material that should show all the capabilities of our app.
Best way to keep track of your workout!
Great app!
No Option To Delete Account
App is not what I want. I do not want my data to be stored, no option to delete. I even contacted them and have not received a response or help.
Great for all my workouts
I love having 1 place to track all my workouts. Whether it’s a simple workout in my garage gym or an intense AMRAP at my Crossfit box. I also LOVE being able to take a picture of the whiteboard to create a custom workout. It’s also super easy to search for PRs and past workouts. Never using SugarWOD again.

Amazingly in-depth app!
As a crossfit coach/personal trainer I spent years struggling to find an easy way to manage my clients/athletes, this app does it all!
I wish this had been around years ago. In-depth tools for creating programs, managing clients/athletes and tracking progress that are simple to use and constantly updated with new tools/features.
Highly recommend this app for any athlete or fitness pro looking to stay on top of their progress!

Custom design option
I use this app as a coach and athlete. The custom design is perfect for my needs. Simple and fast to use. You also have the option to do more in depth tracking and programming too. I manage about 20 athletes on this with no problem at all.
Great app for CrossFit
Great app for tracking CrossFit workouts. There are some very minor issues that will likely be corrected in future releases:
- when editing profile it doesn’t seem to save changes
- entering miles- can’t seem to enter less than full miles (ie: needed to log 1.4 miles but only option is 1 or 2 miles)
- when editing profile it doesn’t seem to save changes
- entering miles- can’t seem to enter less than full miles (ie: needed to log 1.4 miles but only option is 1 or 2 miles)

Thank you so much for your review! Your first concern is a bug and we will look into it ASAP. Your second concern is in our roadmap for a later release. Thank you for using Gym Journal!
Finally!
An app that I can use to track my workouts, get coaching AND compete with friends and other athletes. This app is awesome and super intuitive. The ability to plan and save workouts to log later is very helpful.
