## What is PPL Weightlifting?

PPL Weightlifting is a focused Push/Pull/Legs tracker built for lifters with automatic smart progression. Log your main lifts with AMRAP sets, let the app handle automatic increments, and keep control with manual edits when you need them.

Track your Tier 2 lifts and accessories with last‑time weights, quick add, and rest timers. Review history by cycle, keep notes, and train in kg or lb.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.2.1 — 2026-07-29

Small patch, mostly for the rest timer on your Lock Screen:

• The Live Activity now shows a clear "rest complete" state
• It cleans itself up properly when it expires
• Fixed a header glitch in the Dynamic Island
• Small fixes and polish throughout

Thanks for training with PPL!

### 2.2.0 — 2026-07-13

A redesigned workout flow — your whole day on one screen:

• The Glance List: warm-up, main lifts and accessories as one flat, scannable list. The current set is a highlight, not a card, so the screen never jumps around while you train
• The Dock: one floating bar that logs sets, counts reps and runs the rest timer — always in the same place, like a shutter button
• A new big-timer view readable from across the gym — tap the resting dock to zoom, swipe down if you'd rather keep the list
• Accessories now record your actual reps per set. Do 12, 10, 8 and that's what history shows — and tapping a logged set fixes it
• The next set's rep counter starts from what you got last set
• History now reads exactly like the live session, so reviewing a past day and training today feel like the same app
• Clearer language everywhere — plain sentences instead of code-style labels, on every screen from onboarding to Settings

Plus one-tap rest control from anywhere, a simpler rest setting, and polish throughout.

### 2.1.0 — 2026-07-06

This update makes accessory work more flexible and fixes a few rough edges:

• Accessory rep ranges — set a target range (like 8–12) instead of a single fixed number
• Time-based accessories — a guided hold timer for planks, carries, and other timed work
• Added a rest timer between accessory sets
• Fixed the Settings rest-mode picker not responding to taps
• Honest labels on the idle rest pill when auto-start is off
• Smoother session start

Thanks for training with PPL!

### 2.0.0 — 2026-07-04

PPL Weightlifting has been completely redesigned — meet Crimson Iron.

A ground-up rebuild of every screen around one idea: keep your eyes on the next set, not the interface.

• All-new three-tab layout with a single, focused set queue — always know what's next
• Redesigned session screen with fast stepper input for reps and weight
• Per-side plate math hints on every set
• Smarter accessory work — set it up once, adjust on the fly
• Progress tab with a consistency streak and a 16-week training heatmap
• Light and Dark themes — System, Light, or Dark, your choice
• Rest-timer Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
• Optional Apple Health sync for finished workouts
• Next-workout & streak home-screen widget

Your history and cycles carry over. Time to train.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-04-02

minor bug fixes
