AddFive
Read full descriptionHide full description
Most fitness apps are built for one thing: either lifting, or running, or bodyweight. If you train across disciplines, you end up juggling two or three apps. AddFive tracks strength, calisthenics, running, and strongman in one app, with real progression logic. Not just a logbook. THE "JUST ADD 5" PHILOSOPHY • Hit your reps, the app adds weight next session. Miss too many times, it deloads you. • After each workout, a progression screen shows what changed: Bench Press 200lbs → 205lbs, Push-ups Regular → Incline, pace improved by 5 sec/mi. Accept or skip each one. • Want full control? The Progression Rule Editor lets you configure the algorithm, target reps, increments, and deload triggers per exercise. • Just Add 5 (lbs | mi | min). ~30 BUILT-IN PROGRAMS • 6 categories: Barbell Strength, Bodybuilding, Bodyweight, Running, Hybrid Training, Strongman. • Each comes with coach's notes, form cues, common errors, and auto-calculated warmup sets. • Run multiple programs at once: strength + running + calisthenics, all active. • There's one tier past Advanced. You'll know when you're ready ;). THE WORKOUT PLAYER • Works like a music app: each exercise gets its own screen. Pause, skip, go back, or end early. • Each discipline gets its own view: animated plate visualizer for barbell, variant progression ladder for calisthenics, live GPS map for running, full-screen timer for HIIT. • Hand-drawn illustrations, form cues, and common errors for every exercise. • 12 in-app tutorial videos walk through every feature from first workout to custom programs. 5 VOICE COACHES • Pick your motivation style: Coach Fury (intense, demands greatness), Broo! (meathead energy, adds plates), Dr. Load (science-speak, VO₂ talk), Sunshine (calm, meditative), or Officer GainZ (law enforcement metaphors, third person). • Hundreds of unique pre-recorded lines. Your music keeps playing underneath. LIVE ACTIVITIES • Three color-coded states: green to complete a set, orange for rest countdown, yellow for warmup. • Your phone stays in your pocket the entire session. GO DEEP • History charts per exercise with time filters. Running splits into Pace, Distance, and Duration. • Interactive muscle map on front/back anatomical figures. • PR toast when you hit a new record mid-workout. NO ACCOUNT. NO CLOUD. • SwiftData, local storage. Your data stays on your device. • Export programs as .addfive files to share or back up. Import in one tap. CSV export for spreadsheet lovers. • Subscription or lifetime, your call. APPLE HEALTH • Built on Apple's workout engine. Sets, runs, and rest periods tracked as proper workouts. Just Add 5 (lbs | mi | min). Terms of Use: https://addfive.app/terms/

Trainiq brings training and nutrition together in a plan that fits you and your everyday life. Plan your training, work out with iPhone and Apple Watch, and keep track of your progress, cardio, recovery and nutrition in one place. YOUR TRAINING. BUILT AROUND YOU. Trainiq creates personalized training plans and shows you exactly what’s on your schedule today. During your workout, the app guides you set by set – with weights, reps, rest timers, heart rate and your previous training results. With Apple Watch, you can control your workout right from your wrist. Trainiq also supports advanced training methods including warm-up sets, supersets, drop sets and AMRAP. Many of the 150 exercises now show you the movement, not just a pose. Three static holds stay still on purpose – a plank that wanders off would be a different workout. Travel plans? Your training can come along. Choose the equipment you have, the time you’ve got and your focus. Trainiq puts together a workout you can edit before you start, without changing your regular plan. On iPhone Duo, adapted layouts make good use of the extra screen space. YOUR NUTRITION. BUILT AROUND YOU. Trainiq plans meals around your goals, preferences and everyday life – from quick meals to varied weekly plans. Vegetarian or vegan? Foods you prefer to avoid? Allergies or intolerances? Trainiq takes your preferences into account when planning and suggests meals and recipes that fit. Training and nutrition can work together: Trainiq can take your training routine into account when planning meals, calories and macros. Or use nutrition completely independently from training. When you’ve eaten, simply log your meal using your voice on iPhone or directly from your Apple Watch. WHAT’S INCLUDED IN YOUR NUTRITION PLAN • Personalized daily and weekly plans • Calorie, protein, carbohydrate and fat targets • Varied recipes matched to your goals • Vegetarian and vegan options • Your allergies and intolerances taken into account • Voice meal logging • Food logging directly from Apple Watch • Barcode scanning and food search • Meal and nutrition-label photo logging • Send ingredients directly to Apple Reminders PROGRESS YOU CAN UNDERSTAND. Track training volume, workout time, personal records and your progress over multiple weeks. See more than individual workouts – see how your training develops over time. CARDIO. PACE AND HEART RATE. Trainiq is there for running and other cardio activities too. Keep track of distance, time, pace and heart rate and follow your progress throughout the week. With Apple Watch, your most important metrics are right on your wrist while you train. TRAIN WITH YOUR RECOVERY IN MIND. Trainiq connects relevant Apple Health data with your training and shows your current recovery status. That gives you more context for planning your training – without medical diagnoses or promises. APPLE WATCH AT THE HEART OF TRAINIQ. Trainiq is designed to bring iPhone and Apple Watch together. Use your Watch for strength training, running, heart rate, rest timers and quick meal logging. You decide how to use Trainiq: for training, nutrition or both together. Trainiq is not a substitute for medical or professional nutrition advice. Nutrition estimates and recommendations are intended for personal planning and guidance. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
