GymBells follows a training program for you. Open the app and it shows the next workout. Log your sets, reps and weights as you go, and GymBells moves you through the program's weeks and phases. PROGRAMS - Start with a free built-in program: Full Body Beginner, 5×5 Strength or Push Pull Legs. - Programs are split into phases that run for a set number of weeks, and GymBells tracks where you are. Full Body in Phases (with Unlock GymBells) moves you from higher reps to heavy sets over 12 weeks. - Edit any program (with Unlock GymBells): add, remove or swap exercises, change their sets and reps, and add your own notes to an exercise. - Import your own program from a file (with Unlock GymBells). SCHEDULE - Choose the days you train and see the whole program on a calendar, week by week. - Move a workout to another day, plan rest days, or train anyway. - Missed a workout? Do it today or skip it, and GymBells carries on with the next one. - Joining a program part-way through? Tell GymBells where you are. EXERCISES - Every exercise has drawings of its start and end positions and step-by-step instructions. - Tap a picture to open the exercise, on the workout screen, in a program or when you add one. DURING A WORKOUT - Tap a set to log it, and change the reps or weight when you need to. Add or remove a set on the day. - A rest timer starts between sets and keeps running if you leave the app. - Your current exercise and rest timer show on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, where you can log the next set. - If you're interrupted, pick the workout up where you left off. - On Apple Watch (with Unlock GymBells), GymBells shows the current exercise, your sets and the rest countdown. Tap a set to log it, press and hold it to change the reps with the Digital Crown, and skip or adjust the rest from your wrist. - Know when to add weight (with Unlock GymBells): when every set of an exercise reached the top of its rep range last time, the next workout starts it one weight step heavier. Keep the old weight or use the new one. When you finish, GymBells lists next time's weight for each exercise. PROGRESS - See your workouts this week and this month, and how many weeks in a row you've trained. - Find past workouts on a calendar, and tap one to see every exercise, set and weight. Correct a set if you logged it wrong. - Follow each exercise over time on a chart of your top set (with Unlock GymBells).
