A pood is the old Russian unit of weight — the native language of kettlebells. A 16 kg bell is one pood; a 32 kg bell is two. Pood is the tracker for people who take kettlebell training seriously — whatever unit their bells are stamped in. Most kettlebell apps are workout-video libraries with a rep counter bolted on. Pood is the opposite: tracking first. Log sets one-handed mid-session, watch your volume build across months, and follow structured minimalist programs without the bloat. LOG WITHOUT FRICTION • Giant one-handed controls — your other hand is holding a bell • Reps, sets, left/right sides, and the exact bell you used • Rest timer with a quiet haptic pulse • Session summary with a clean shareable card SEE YOUR STRENGTH ADD UP • Cumulative poods lifted — lifetime training volume in the unit that started it all • Every number in your unit, totals included: kilograms, pounds, or poods, your choice • Volume trends, personal records, session density, streaks • Interactive charts you can scrub FOLLOW A PROGRAM, NOT A FEED • Daily Minimalist: the classic hundred swings and ten get-ups, free • Press Ladders, Two-Bell Builder, the 10,000 Swing Challenge, Snatch Foundations • Enroll once and the home screen knows your next session YOURS, LOCALLY • No account, no feed, no ads • Works fully offline — your data stays on your device • Saves finished workouts to Apple Health • Log in kg, lb, or poods — switch anytime, everything converts, always free The free tier is complete: unlimited logging, your full history, a full daily program, and core progress charts. Premium adds the complete analytics suite and every program — $3.99/month, $34.99/year with a 7-day free trial, or $89.99 once. Bought the unlock in Kettlebell Tracker v1? Premium is yours for good. Pood — the original unit of strength. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://pood.fit/privacy/
