Set up now the gym routine you deserve. EASY You can name your routines and exercises as you want. Don't spend that much time trying to find the official (long and boring) name of your workout in an endless list of exercises. Create a routine, create an exercise in it, and you are ready to go! You know what needs to be done for your body, and an app shouldn't make it difficult FAST Tracking your progress should be fast. In fact, Strongify does it in a few taps only! Are you going to the gym to look at your workout app? We don't think so! That's why Strongify will remember the last weight and reps you entered, which makes adding a workout fast and convenient. Focus on the gains; we take care of the rest. STAY MOTIVATED Check your progress over time with our charts. Nothing is more motivating than seeing your own improvement. Every time you go to the gym, you will know how well you performed last time. Outperform yourself week after week. SHARE YOUR SUCCESSES Share your workout with your social networks. You can also directly add them to your Instagram Story! We think you should be proud of what you accomplish (especially if you broke your previous bench press max weight). Share that with style with our different cards: - Total volume lifted - Best set - Progress over time - Reps Only - Duration TIME-BASED EXERCISES You can also track your planks, stretching exercises, or yoga sessions. CALENDAR Another way to get motivated is to see how often you've worked out this week or month. We included a calendar that shows exactly that. You can quickly overview your past workouts and see exactly what exercises you performed on a specific day. THEMES Everyone has different tastes, we are totally fine if you don't like the default theme. That's why we included others. Prefer pink? Maybe black? We've got you covered! APP FEATURES: - Easy and simple UI - Fast, no more wasted time at the gym - Efficient tracking of your workout - Log your reps and weight in a few taps. - Create any custom routines you want - Support for imperial and metric units - Track your progress - Get relevant stats on your progress - Multiple charts - Reach your fitness goals - Analyze your performance - Share your workout on your Instagram Story - See all your past workouts on a calendar - Try themes before trying the Premium version - Get your dream body A note from the developer: I could never remember how much weight I lifted during my previous workouts. I wanted an easy way to track my workouts without spending too much time on it. I tried to create a simple, yet effective way to track my progress without bloating the app with useless features; I hope you like it!
