Tempered Strength vs Strength Cycle

Pick a program. Open today’s session. Log every set. Strength, hypertrophy, powerlifting, Olympic lifting, HIIT, Hyrox, and Pilates. Structured weeks, or a workout when life does not fit the plan. No social feed. Just the session and the progress. PROGRAMS Multi-week plans with progressive overload and exercise swaps for the kit you have. Bodybuilding, powerbuilding, powerlifting, Olympic lifting, HIIT, and Pilates. WORKOUTS Standalone sessions for the days without a plan. WODs, Hyrox, Pilates, mobility, and short sessions, filtered by discipline, duration, and level. LOGGING Every set tracked. Rest timer on cue. Last session filled in, so you know what to beat. PERSONAL BESTS 1RM, 2RM, and 3RM on every exercise. Searchable, updated as you lift, kept on your phone. GUIDED FLOWS Warm-up, mobility, and recovery with timers, video, and block-by-block cues.

Built for serious lifters running structured strength programs. Strength Cycle handles 5/3/1, 3x5 Strength, and Texas Method with the rigor each methodology demands. No generic templates. No bolted-on assumptions. Every program implemented with full methodology fidelity: - 5/3/1 — Wendler's percentage-based system with proper Training Max management, AMRAP top set logging, and complete 4-week cycle phases (5/5/5, 3/3/3, 5/3/1, deload). - 3x5 Strength — Linear progression for intermediate strength building, with smart deload triggers when progress stalls. - Texas Method — Volume/recovery/intensity weekly progression with PR-driven Training Max updates. MORE PROGRAMS COMING Strength Cycle is built program-first. More proven strength programs are in active development — each implemented with the same methodology fidelity as the three above. No half-baked templates, no generic "add your own program" placeholders. WHAT YOU GET - Exact prescribed percentages, never rounded into uselessness - AMRAP top set logging with automatic e1RM calculation (Epley formula) - Training Max progression tracked across cycles, with full phase context - Deload weeks handled with proper percentages — not skipped, not faked - Workout history filterable by lift, cycle, and phase - e1RM trend charts per lift across all cycles - Ask Coach — in-app assistant for AMRAP interpretation, TM management, assistance work selection, deload decisions, and program-specific programming questions BUILT BY A LIFTER Strength Cycle was built by a 30+ year lifter who got tired of programming apps that misunderstand the programs they claim to support. If you've ever rolled your eyes at an app rounding 67.5% to "70% — close enough" or skipping deloads entirely, this is the one that gets it right. FREE, NO SUBSCRIPTIONS, NO ADS Strength Cycle is free to download and use. No subscription tiers. No paywalled programs. No ads. Just the programs, done right.
