A workout journal for people who run their own routine. Open a lift and last session's weights and reps are already in the fields. Everything in it is free. There's no Pro version, no ads and no feed. The biggest workout apps cap free routines at 3 or 4. Maintenea gives you 50, keeps your whole history, and doesn't hold back RIR, widgets or Apple Health for a paid tier. I think tracking your training should be free, so it is. AT THE RACK • Log weight, reps and RIR for every set. Tick the set off and the rest timer starts. • The rest countdown sits on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so your phone stays locked between sets. • If last time felt easy (RIR 2 or more), Maintenea suggests the next step: 5 lb more, or one more rep on bodyweight moves. Take it or leave it. • Supersets, warm-up sets, sets to failure, tempo, left and right sides for single-arm and single-leg work, and a plate calculator. • 400+ exercises, most with step-by-step technique. Add your own any time. • Minimize the workout, take a call or close the app. It comes back where you left it. ROUTINES • Plan a routine once, with its exercises and target sets, and start it at the gym in one tap. • Each routine remembers its own numbers. Your 5×5 day opens at last 5×5's weights, even if you did the same lift for 3×8 in between. • Swap an exercise or change the order mid-workout. When you finish, you decide whether the routine keeps the change. • Send a routine to a training partner as a link. They get the exercises and sets, not your weights. PROGRESS • Estimated 1RM for every lift over one month, three months, a year or all time. • Personal records marked automatically. • Working sets per muscle group each week, shown on a 3D body, so you can see what you skipped. • A heatmap of the days you trained. YOUR DATA • Import a CSV export from Strong or Hevy, or your own spreadsheet. • Export everything to a JSON file whenever you like. • The same journal works in your browser at maintenea.com. • No ads and no third-party SDKs. Analytics stay off unless you turn them on, and workout data is stored in the EU. • Delete your account in the app and your data is deleted from our servers, photos included. ALSO IN THE JOURNAL • Stretching sessions with hold times, sides, and how it felt before and after. • Body weight, measurements and progress photos. • Apple Health: save finished workouts as strength training and read your steps and body weight. Both stay off until you switch them on. • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets for your training week and a lift's estimated 1RM. You need an account so the journal syncs between your iPhone and the web. Sign in with Apple, Google or email. Maintenea is built by one lifter in Czechia who trains with it. Send feedback from Settings and I'll read it. Available in English and Czech. ## Is Maintenea safe? Not enough ratings yet to assess Maintenea. ## Is Maintenea legit?

Export routines to a spreadsheet: pick them in Settings › Your data and get a CSV with one row per set. Routine plans are easier to read: equal sets share one line (3 × 82.5 kg × 8). Swipe the workout bar up to reopen it, and flick the 3D figure to keep it turning. ### 1.7.1 — 2026-11-06 Fixes in this update: numbers you type into an extra set are kept when you finish it from the lock screen or the app restarts. A routine you minimize right after starting still fills in the numbers from its last run. Stretching no longer chimes late or keeps sending hold alerts after the app was closed. The recap's summary offer stays until you answer it, and plan reminder settings are safer to change on a slow connection. Sharing a workout or a recap draws its image only when you tap Share. ### 1.7.0 — 2026-11-06 Plan reminders: pick the days and time you train, and the reminder shows the numbers from last time. Nothing arrives until you turn it on, and never more than one a day. Weekly and monthly summary: Monday morning brings last week's active days and records, the 1st of the month the whole month. Also fixed: the lock-screen rest timer stops at zero and keeps counting after the app restarts, +1 set on the Live Activity adds the whole superset round, weights stay in lb when the app starts without signal, and exercise detail shows a bodyweight best as reps. ### 1.6.1 — 2026-11-04 Fixed a 1.6.0 bug that stopped a workout from saving after you minimized it and opened it again: Finish closed the summary and nothing was saved. A minimized workout now saves as it should, and your changes are kept on the phone as you go. ### 1.6.0 — 2026-11-03 Your workout is on your Apple Watch: the Smart Stack shows the current set or your rest countdown, and you tick off a set right from your wrist (watchOS 11 and iOS 18 or later). Training awards: your 25th, 50th and 100th workout each earn one. The Dashboard shows the latest and how far the next is, and Progress lists them all with the date. Your weekly goal now syncs with your account. Pause it for a deload or a trip; switch it back on and it returns next Monday. The goal you set before carries over. After a save, a new personal record gets its own line, only when you actually beat your best. Settings › Training › Highlight progress turns it off. Progress now counts a week as active when it has an active day, the same unit as your goal. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
