Shrug vs Easy Workout Journal

Shrug helps you see better results from your time spent in the gym by making it easy to track your lifts so that you're performing progressive overload - the gradual increases in weight, reps, or other measures of intensity that force your body to adapt. Shrug is simple, free, and doesn't hide any of its features behind a subscription.

Ever feel like you've spent more time typing your workout into the app than you actually spent working out? Tired of waiting for search results to load when searching for an exercise? A lot of popular workout apps have implemented amazing features utilizing new technologies like machine learning, Artificial Intelligence, etc. But this comes at the cost of added complexity. Some of us just want to keep things easy. When developing this app I aimed at tackling a few issues I've experienced with other workout apps. After training a heavy lift I've often found my hands were shaky, making it hard to type in exercise names, etc. To address this I developed a new way for entering in exercises that only takes 3-4 button clicks, with buttons much bigger than letter keys on a keyboard. I also struggled with poor internet connection while in many gyms. Warehouse gyms typically have metal roofs which can sometimes stifle your internet connection. Which is why all base functionality within this app does not require an internet connection. Hope you enjoy using the App! We're always open to feedback!
