Stop guessing. Pro builds your plan and recommends weight and reps for every set, adapting to how strong you are today. Free logging, no account. 14-day free trial. Alpha Progression tells you exactly what to lift. Every set, every workout. Build your plan in a minute, then follow weight and rep recommendations that adapt to how strong you are today. Most gym apps only record what you did. Alpha Progression plans what you should do next: a science-based training plan built for your goal, your experience and your equipment, and a progression recommendation for every single set. App of the Day on the App Store, twice. 4.9 stars from 40,000+ lifters. 25 million workouts logged. YOUR PLAN, GENERATED Pick your goal, the days you can train, how long you have and which muscles to prioritize. The plan generator builds a complete plan around the equipment in your gym: split, exercises, sets and rep ranges. Beginners and advanced lifters get fundamentally different plans, because they need different things. Every detail stays editable, or build your own plan from scratch. Need just one session? The workout generator creates a one-off workout whenever you want. A RECOMMENDATION FOR EVERY SET Before each set, the app shows the weight and reps to go for, based on your previous workouts and what you have already done today. Recommendations shift from set to set because fatigue is real: set 3 is not set 1. Keep hitting them and they keep climbing. Progressive overload without spreadsheets or guesswork. LOG FAST, STAY IN THE ZONE Weight, reps and RIR in two taps, with your notes and your last sets in view. Rest timer as a Live Activity, so the countdown and your next set sit on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island. Supersets, dropsets, bodyweight, assisted and timed exercises.
