Your last set should tell you what to do next. Gymbro is a workout tracker for lifters who want structured progress without spreadsheets or gym math. Log weight, reps and effort, see what you did last time, then get a clear target for your next set and upcoming workouts. No account is required to begin. Workout logging works offline, so your session keeps moving even when the gym has no signal. Sign in only if you want secure cloud backup and cross-device sync. Progressive overload that responds to you Choose a target rep range, an RPE or RIR target, and the weight increments available for each exercise. Gymbro analyses every completed set and adjusts the next weight and rep target around your actual performance. • Reach the top of your rep range and Gymbro moves the target forward • Miss the minimum or report high fatigue and it can reduce the load • Stay inside the target range and it keeps the progression controlled • Recommendations match the plates, dumbbells or machine increments you use This is progressive overload you can act on during the workout—not another graph to interpret later.
