A workout log that keeps up with you between sets. Gym is for logging strength training while you're actually training. Dense set rows, your last-time numbers right where you need them, and a rest timer that starts itself — so the logging stays out of the way of the lifting. WHAT YOU GET • Set-by-set logging: weight, reps, and optional RPE • Last-time hints next to every exercise, so you know the number to beat • Automatic personal-record detection, with a badge when you hit one • A rest timer that starts when you finish a set, with a Live Activity on the Lock Screen • An exercise catalogue with instructions and movement illustrations • Volume tracked per muscle group, warm-ups excluded • Routines: save a session and start it again with one tap • Strength progression, volume and PR history charts • Push a finished workout to Strava, if you connect it FOUR WAYS TO LOG • By hand — quick-add and full set rows • By chat — "bench 3 by 8 at 135" • By voice — dictate between sets without putting the weights down • By photo — snap a whiteboard or a machine display Chat, voice and photo use AI, and they're off until you turn them on.
