Weights is a clean workout log for lifters who want to record sets, reps, and strength without fighting the app. Start a routine, enter your numbers, and get back to training. Weights keeps your workouts organized so you can focus on the next set, not on tapping through clutter. WHY WEIGHTS Weights is built for real gym sessions. Use it as your workout tracker, gym log, lifting notebook, routine planner, and progress history in one focused app. Plan your training before you arrive, start a saved routine in seconds, log warm-up and working sets quickly, use recent performance to guide your next set, and review your history when you want to see what changed.

Weights helps you see training volume, workout history, best lifts, muscle focus, achievements, and strength changes over time. Use Next Set guidance to decide when to repeat, add a rep, or consider more weight. Review past sessions before a lift. Track personal records without digging through old notes.
