Strength Direct vs SweatCue

Focus on your lifting. Free forever. No ads. No subscriptions. No tracking. No account required. Works offline. Strength Direct is a gym workout tracker with the tools you need to train consistently: previous-workout comparisons, reusable routines, automatic rest timers, and clear progress charts. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF See your previous weights and reps beside each set, so you know what to aim for today. Build your own workout templates, start with Push, Pull, or Full Body routines, or repeat a workout from your history. YOUR ROUTINE. YOUR WAY. Choose built-in exercises or create your own. Organize supersets, warm-ups, and drop sets. Add notes, technique reminders, and optional reps in reserve. Track weights and reps, bodyweight exercises, timed holds, cardio, and loaded carries. REST WITHOUT WATCHING THE CLOCK Enable automatic rest timers for working sets and supersets. For supersets, the countdown starts after you log a working set on the final exercise. Customize rest times for each exercise, follow the countdown on your Lock Screen or Dynamic Island on supported devices, and enable notifications for an alert when it’s time for your next set. SEE YOUR WORK PAY OFF Track your training volume and estimated one-rep max over time with clear progress charts. Review individual exercises, strength trends, logged cardio, and body weight. Browse your workout calendar and edit past entries when needed. KEEP CONTROL OF YOUR DATA Your workout history is stored locally. Back up and restore your workout data. For another perspective on your training, copy a structured summary into your preferred AI assistant for feedback. You choose what to share. Log your next workout. Keep progressing.

sweatcue is a dashboard for your AI workouts. Every move and your numbers on screen, rests timed for you, and each set called out loud. Make a workout or a full plan in Grok, ChatGPT or Claude, or bring one from your trainer, a book or a video. Send it from the chatbot, or paste it in, and sweatcue runs it, so you stop scrolling a chat to find your place between sets. WORKS WITH ANY TRAINING Weightlifting, bodyweight, HIIT, functional training, Pilates, yoga, running, cycling, rowing and mobility — sets, supersets, circuits, intervals, EMOM, AMRAP and Tabata all understood.
