My mission is to deliver a workout training log app that will help you make progress, build strength, and ensure hypertrophy, all that for free. I will never change the free feature to a paid one, spam the paywall, limit routines or workout logs, etc. (all the bad stuff other workout trackers do). What stands Strive apart: - Create unlimited workout routines, most trackers paywall this - Crate workout plans, assign workouts to days or in an order - Share your workouts with your friends or followers - train together without paying - Set weight or reps for the next workount and ensure progressive overload, go get those gains - RIR/RPE tracking with effective reps metric - Sync cardio and bodyweight with Health so you don't have to input the data manually - Mark workouts as deloads to better understand and analyze the data - Advanced charts without paywall, analyze routine, bodypart or exercise progress - Fully offline - I know some gyms have poor reception - Rest timer personalizeable per exercise - Personalizable dashboard - Choose from many widgets in various sizes to compose your dashboard, just like your phone's homescreen. Have all the data visible at a glance! - Placeholder exercise, select exercise category and bodypart or a group of exercises and then select the actual exercise when working out, based on the feelings or what's free at the gym - Custom keyboard to input workout data frictionlessly, allows to copy value from previous set, set value to all sets, and increment and decrement value - Wrapped, see your year in review at the end of the year - Themes & theme creator - Privacy first - no data tracking - No ads Rest of the features that you would expect: - Measurements and weight ins - Notes - Backup - never loos your data - Prs - Use all the set types, warmup, dropset, myo reps etc - Workout finish reminder - never again open an app to see that you have not saved the previous training - Dark mode - Exercise database I hope my app will help you achieve your goals, in general, just progress and get better. I promise to develop this app until it is your favorite gym log and workout tracker app. Remember, we all are gonna make it! Your gym bro, Artur. _________________________________________ Terms of Use: https://strive-workout.com/terms-conditions/ Privacy Policy: https://strive-workout.com/privacy-policy/

Logging is built to be fast so you can spend less time on your phone and more time actually training. ALREADY TRACKING SOMEWHERE ELSE? Import your Hevy, Strong, RepCount or Fitbod history and pick up where you left off. Your training history and progression come with you. UNDERSTAND YOUR PROGRESS Explore exercise history, personal records, progression trends, and detailed performance for every lift. Relm helps you look beyond a single workout and see how your training is developing over time. TRAIN WITH CLEARER DIRECTION Exercise Insights analyze your recent performance to highlight progression opportunities, repeated weight increases, regressions, and other patterns that are easy to miss in a logbook alone. Your Coach Summary then brings those trends together, giving you a clearer picture of how your training is progressing. SEE WHERE YOUR VOLUME IS GOING Visualize weekly training volume across muscle groups with Relm's interactive muscle map. See which muscles you're training most, which you're training least, and how your volume is distributed across your program.

LOG NUTRITION Calories, macros, and bodyweight tracked alongside your training, so you can see more of what's driving your results.
