Great app

This app is so good once you get to know it. I love that I am not aimlessly exercising and hoping for results. This is great at tracking your progress and is so flexible for all sorts of workouts. The app has so many workouts and training plans to start out with and I can also create my own workouts. Also you can make your own exercises, I started doing weighted club training, none existed in the app so I made my own and it’s easy. I could go on, its great for me gym and general workout needs

Excellent workout tracker

I’ve been using StrengthLog consistently for about three years now. I can look back and see what all my previous Maxes and PR’s have been, see all my progress. The built-in programs are extremely helpful. I’ve recommended this app to many people and I will continue to do so.

Apps randomly stops working mid workout

The features of this app are great if the app didn’t randomly stops working working mid workout. This has happened three times so far and I am going to be switching to another app as this is too frustrating. While mid workout the app will stop working, you won’t be able to edit your current workout or save it, if you attempt to save your workout the app will automatically log the end of your workout to be on December 31st of 1969 and will show an error button if you try to change the end date and save the workout. The only way to fix this is to refresh the app which will make you lose the stats on your current workout. Really disappointing as the other features in the app are pretty neat.

Response from developer

I'm so sorry to hear about your issues. It's hard for us to know exactly what's happening without looking into your account but it sounds like this can be a result of having an unstable Internet connection. If you have the possibility to try to see if it works better for you on wifi (or completely without internet) and report back to us at app@strengthlog.com we would greatly appreciate it. Best, Sandrine

Used to be amazing..

This app used to be excellent- had amazing features in both free and premium versions. However now with this recent update, they have limited the number of free custom workout templates you can add to 5 when previously there was no limit. I will be searching out another app now, sadly, as this was the main reason why I chose StrengthLog. Awesome concept and great tools, but they took away what was possibly the most valuable feature. This would be THE app I would have recommended to anyone who asked for a good lift tracker, but now I have to seek out another. Really very sad.

Best gym tool

I really enjoy this app. I’m able to track my workouts, see what each exercise looks like, read descriptions and see which muscle groups ai should be using for each exercise. It has greatly improved my gym time and results.

Great :)

This is a really cool app. I don’t think I use it correctly, but it’s a really great planning tool. I really enjoy it. Also the app logo is super cute!

Awesome App!

This is such an awesome app. There are so many free programs and workouts I don't know how they can afford to give away so many. If you are starting out, there really is no need to upgrade to the Premium version. There are some really cool features on the Premium side though and if you stick with it, you may want to pay the reasonable fee. You just won't go wrong with this app.

Strength Log is Great !

I’ve been using this app for few years. If you stick to a plan using this app you will see your progress and results.
I highly recommend this app and the pod cast is cool. Keep up the amazing work!

Great for keeping track of workouts

I’ve been using StrengthLog off and on for about a year. After learning how to use the app properly I’ve really come to enjoy using it! I wish it connected seamlessly with a Strava because that’s where I track my fitness stats, but it hasn’t been too much of a hassle to get everything over there.

I’ve been using the free version but now that I’m regularly in the gym I’m tempted to try out the premium version.

Love the app
Don’t like how I have to change the weight I’m lifting

Formerly great, now just OK

I’ve used StrengthLog for years and loved it. It offers a tremendous amount of utility and no ads even on the free version. That’s huge. But I think they’ve fallen victim to the trap of “changing things for the sake of changing things” to the point where I’m considering switching apps.
It irks me a bit there’s no opt out from the “strength levels” thing. Sure, I can ignore it (and do), but as I usually work out with dumbbells, my lone deload week barbell bench is forever stuck as my “max”. I don’t care what other people are doing, and pulling data based on the assumption that the fixed exercises in that modal are indicative of one’s “max” is just poor methodology. I guess it’s the way of the world now, but some of us don’t like the social/gamification stuff thrown into everything. Before the most recent update, I could see all my upcoming sessions on the home screen. Now I either have to click into the calendar one-by-one or go several menus deep. It’s just bad design. Worst of all, building programs is now limited to a calendar week. Do you run a 10-day programming cycle? Before, it was no problem. Now? Too bad.
I realize you need things to keep your developers busy but sometimes the best action is no action.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to write us the feedback. Regarding the Strength Levels, we've chosen to base it on the apps 15 most logged exercises. However, we are aware that not all users train these exercises, bit needed to do some kind of cut since we can't base it on all exercises :) You can have the programs you follow on your home screen again, your favourite workouts under the plus sign. I don't understand why you shouldn't be able to build a 10-day programming cycle, that is absolutely possible in the app! If you need assistance with it, don't hesitate to send us an email at app@strengthlog.com. Kind regards Sandrine

New app layout is awful

I used to be able to easily plan a workout. That option is no longer available. I could also re-use old workouts. That also is a muddled mess now. Thanks for ruining a good app

LOVING 9.0

Been using this app forever at this point and the 9.0 is SICK, GOOD JOB TO THE WHOLE DEV TEAM YOU ROCK

I’ve never looked back!

Best training log app with all the features I will could want, lovely interface, and seems the team behind it is passionate about the experience and always innovating more.

All round fantastic !

From every aspect this is a great app! Even the free version has everything you might need for a good session. I find the demos super helpful and the interface is very user friendly . Well done, I cant recommend a better app!

Thank you so much for this kind review! Best regards, Sandrine

Great workout tracker app!!

I’ve used a lot of different apps to tracker my workouts but this one is probably the best, especially in regards to how simple it is to use as on a free account. I love not having to see adds or paywalls over everything. The premium features are also fantastic. I especially love being able to export my workout data for further analysis.

New UI kind of sucks

Not sure why you guys removed the next workout in the program from homepage. You now have to click a few times to reach programs to start the next session.

Get another app

I usually never leave review on apps, this app used to be great. They now came out with an update that makes it harder to access notes for your workouts and also crashes and runs slower. Find another app like it will

Best workout App!!

Seriously I’ve tried many and this has everything you could want and need to track your workouts and gains.

Features takes away :(

The current version 9 limits your workouts and programs to 5 when it was previously unlimited.

Response from developer

Previously, there was no limit to how many programs and stand-alone workouts a free user could build. With the new and improved Program Builder, that limit is five. We understand that this is a downgrade for anyone who has been using the app to build a large number of programs and workout templates for free. The reason for the change is that accounts with large libraries of old programs, workout templates, and custom exercises create a disproportionate amount of complexity and support work, often for content that is no longer being used. Maintaining that indefinitely isn't sustainable for us, and we'd rather spend that time and money improving StrengthLog for everyone, including users on the free plan. What isn't changing is the core of the free app. Unlimited workout logging will remain free forever. So will planning workouts and Train Again, which in most cases removes the need to build programs and workout templates in the first place. We want StrengthLog to remain a genuinely useful free workout tracker, not an app that lets you log three workouts and then puts up a paywall. At the same time, we need to draw the line somewhere on features that create significant ongoing costs for us. For the new Program Builder, we've decided that five programs/workout templates for free is that line. All the best, Philip Wildenstam
