Read full descriptionHide full description
Overload Progression is the workout log that stays on your iPhone, and the coach that tells you what to lift next. Log every set in seconds. Watch your body, your volume and your lifts move. No account. No cloud. No feed. Your training data never leaves the device. WHAT IS FREE - Unlimited workout logging: exercises, sets, reps, weight - Rest timer with Lock Screen Live Activity - Body tracking: weight, calories, sleep - Progress charts, weekly muscle volume, body heatmap - History you can edit - CSV export and import All of that is local, forever, with no subscription. WHAT IS PRO Only the AI progression engine is paid. It reads your last session and tells you the next weight, reps and sets: increase, add a rep, retry or deload, using double-progression rules from strength-training research. You can always ignore a suggestion and type the numbers yourself. Logging is never locked. Overload Pro is an auto-renewable subscription: 0.99 EUR/month after a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime in Settings. WHY IT EXISTS Most gym apps are either a blank notebook or a 13-dollar coach. Overload is the notebook, free. The science of progressive overload is the only thing behind the paywall.
