MA Journey is a training journal built for martial artists: from white belt to black belt and every step between. Designed for martial artists who want to remember the work, understand the progress, and keep the journey with them. Track your training, reflect on your progress, follow your journey, record competition results, and build a personal technique library across Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Karate, Taekwondo, and other martial arts. This is not a generic workout tracker. MA Journey is built around the way martial artists actually train: classes, open mats, private lessons, seminars, sparring rounds, belt promotions, stripes, competition matches, instructors, schools, techniques, reflections, and long-term progress over years. TRAIN WITH CONTINUITY - Log detailed training sessions with date, duration, session type, Gi or No-Gi, instructor, location, school, tags, techniques practiced, sparring rounds, effort level, notes, sleep, and photo attachments. - Add post-training reflections, guided journal entries, and longer self-discovery notes so your training history becomes more than a list of workouts. Search across sessions and reflections to revisit lessons, patterns, and milestones. TRACK YOUR MARTIAL ARTS PROGRESS - View your progress by martial art with stats for sessions, training hours, weekly averages, techniques, streaks, activity patterns, instructors, locations, and more. - Filter your progress by 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, or all time. Set weekly training goals for each art and review your consistency over time with charts, heatmaps, and detailed statistics. FOLLOW YOUR BELT JOURNEY - MA Journey includes deep belt and rank tracking for martial artists who want to preserve their promotion history. - Track your current rank, promotion timeline, time at each belt, and belt-period statistics. Compare how you trained between promotions, such as your time at white belt, blue belt, or since your most recent stripe. - Rank tracking can be enabled or disabled per martial art, so you can still log full training analytics for arts where belts are not part of your journey. COMPETE WITH BETTER RECORDS - Record competition events, dates, locations, rulesets, Gi or No-Gi format, divisions, weight classes, results, and match-by-match details. - Track opponents, wins, losses, submissions, points, notes, reference links, and post-event reflections. - Review stats, match history, and podium results over time. BUILD YOUR TECHNIQUE LIBRARY - Create a personal martial arts technique library organized by category, tags, proficiency, confidence, and favorites. - Link techniques directly to training sessions so you can see what you practiced, when you practiced it, and how your understanding develops over time. SUPPORT FOR MULTIPLE MARTIAL ARTS Train more than one discipline? MA Journey supports multiple martial arts in one journal. APPLE HEALTH INTEGRATION - Connect training sessions with workouts from Apple Health, including Apple Watch and other supported fitness sources. - View heart rate and active energy for linked workouts, and include wearable training data alongside your martial arts journal. SYNC, BACKUP, AND OWN YOUR HISTORY - MA Journey supports iCloud sync across iPhone and iPad using a private CloudKit container. - Your training history matters. Export manual backups, import backups, merge data, restore missing entries, and protect your journal with safety snapshots - Export your data as a formatted PDF Book/Report FREE TO VIEW, PREMIUM TO LOG - START WITH A FREE TRIAL MA Journey Premium is an auto-renewable monthly subscription that unlocks the ability to log and edit training sessions, reflections, promotions, competitions, and techniques. Subscription length: 1 month. Price is shown in the app before purchase. New users get a 14-day free trial.
