Out of streak freezes? You can now buy more, 1 or 5 at a time, from the streak page. They never expire, and Liftspan only spends one when it saves your streak. Freezes also stop getting used up on a streak that can't be saved. Used your free photo import, or your 10 for the month? Buy 1 or 5 more right from the import screen. Have an App Store offer code? Redeem it in Settings. Links to liftspan.fit/app now open straight in the app. Plus fixes and polish.

FAQ
How does Liftspan adapt workouts for joint pain?
Liftspan asks about your specific joint pain (e.g., shoulder, knee, back) and filters out exercises that load those areas. It then suggests suitable alternatives that target the same muscle groups without aggravating your pain.
Can Liftspan import my existing workout programs?
Yes, you can take a photo of your program, and Liftspan will read and match exercises, preserving your sets and reps. It will automatically swap out any movements that strain your reported problem joints.
What happens if I'm feeling unwell on a training day?
You can tell Liftspan how you feel, for example, 'shoulder's cranky and I slept badly.' The app will then adjust today's session by swapping overhead work, reducing sets, or easing the load for that day.
Does Liftspan have ads?
No, Liftspan is ad-free. The free version offers extensive features without advertisements, and nothing is ever deleted.
What are the subscription options for Liftspan Pro?
Liftspan Pro offers monthly and annual subscription plans. The monthly plan is $4.99 per month, and the annual plan is $29.99 per year. Both plans include a 7-day free trial.
Can I track non-lifting activities with Liftspan?
Yes, Liftspan encourages showing up by allowing you to log activities like walks, bike rides, or yoga to keep your streak alive. Lifting days count separately, and a full training week earns a freeze for a missed day.
How does Liftspan track my progress?
The app provides estimated 1RM for every lift, records your all-time best lifts, and measures your weekly hard sets against scientific benchmarks. You can also save and share your workout cards.
