PHYZIK is the social training platform for lifters. Every set. Every PR. Every meal — logged, analyzed, and shared with the people who push you. HANDS-FREE SET LOGGING Talk your set into the app between reps. Voice dictation captures weight and reps without breaking your tempo. The fastest way to log a working set, ever. YOUR SQUAD Build a private squad with your training partners. The squad schedule grid shows who trained each day — when your crew is watching, you don't skip leg day. Weekly leaderboards rank total volume, PRs, and consistency. Solo sessions become team competition. THE FLOOR Your feed, built from real sessions by real people. No influencer noise. Just the lifters you train with, putting in work. Post your workouts, give respect when someone hits a PR, and share any post straight to your friends. A dedicated discovery page surfaces athletes, workouts, and gyms you haven't found yet. NUTRITION BUILT FOR LIFTERS Snap to track. Photograph your plate and AI breaks down the foods, portions, and macros — it even accounts for restaurant cooking oils and dressings. Multi-ingredient dishes log as one meal you can expand and edit ingredient by ingredient. Or talk through your meal and we transcribe it. When you want precision, scan a barcode or search 300,000+ foods backed by USDA + Open Food Facts. Save your go-to meals. Import recipes from any URL. Calories shift between training days and rest days automatically. SMART TRACKING A tracker built for speed between sets. Previous session numbers stay visible — down to the exact machine brand you trained on. Plate calculator for barbells and plate-loaded machines. Supersets, warm-ups, and drop sets that count like real sets. Tell PHYZIK what muscle group you're hitting and get instant exercise suggestions. Rest timers start automatically. Tag your gym right from the workout. SCIENCE-BACKED PROGRAMMING Programs built on peer-reviewed exercise science. Volume is prescribed within evidence-based thresholds — minimum effective volume to maximum recoverable volume. The system auto-adjusts to your actual performance: hit the top of your rep range and the weight goes up; fall short and it recalibrates. Set rep ranges per exercise or per individual set. Hypertrophy, strength, recomposition, fat loss — every program is periodized around how muscle actually adapts. RECOVERY INTELLIGENCE Muscles don't grow in the gym — they grow when you recover. An interactive muscle map tracks fatigue across every muscle group, and every group carries its own 0–100 readiness score so you can see exactly what's ready and what still needs time. A whole-body readiness score tells you when to push and when to back off, built from your actual training load. ELITE ANALYTICS Every lift scored against real strength standards, from beginner to elite. Volume landmarks show weekly sets per muscle group against sport science benchmarks. Body weight uses smoothed trend analysis with goals and projected completion dates. Personal records, tracked and ranked across every exercise you've ever logged. Ten years in or ten days in, this is your platform. Built by lifters, for lifters.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PHYZIK at 100% against OlympiaTV's 52%. PHYZIK also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.4) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). OlympiaTV's advantage is ratings volume (90 vs 11). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OlympiaTV sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and PHYZIK sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PHYZIK holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OlympiaTV has 90 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 52% of OlympiaTV's written reviews are positive against 100% of PHYZIK's.
OlympiaTV ships an update every 3 months, PHYZIK weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
