New to the gym? GetJacked turns your goal, experience, and weekly schedule into a clear muscle-building plan, so you can walk in knowing exactly what to do. A GYM PLAN BUILT AROUND YOU Choose your goal, tell GetJacked how much experience you have, and select how many days you can train. You’ll get a structured plan suited to your starting point—not a routine made for someone who has trained for years. Every workout lays out the exercises, sets, reps, and rest so you can focus on training instead of piecing together a plan. LEARN EACH EXERCISE Explore a database of 200+ exercises with written setup, execution, muscle-targeting, and form guidance. Log weight and reps as you train, keep rest times visible, and build a complete workout history. PROGRESS WITHOUT GUESSWORK As your training history grows, GetJacked uses it to suggest weights and progression. See what you lifted last time, track personal records, and understand how your strength and training volume change over time. TRAIN WITH THE EQUIPMENT YOU HAVE A machine is busy or your gym does not have the equipment in your plan? Smart exercise swaps suggest alternatives for the same target muscles based on the equipment available to you. STAY CONSISTENT Review your workout history and progress, earn XP, reach new levels, and celebrate achievements as you build your gym habit. iCloud sync keeps your training data available across your Apple devices. MADE FOR YOUR FIRST MONTHS IN THE GYM GetJacked is for people starting strength training who want to build muscle with structure. Whether this is your first workout or you are still finding your rhythm, the app gives you a clear plan and practical guidance without overwhelming you. Start your first gym plan and build from there. PREMIUM ACCESS Some features require GetJacked Premium. Premium is available as an auto-renewing subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase.
