GymTrack Pro is the fastest, smartest workout tracker ever built for serious lifters. Log a set in one tap. Track every rep, every weight, every PR across every gym machine you use. Built by lifters who were tired of clunky apps that slow you down between sets. KEY FEATURES - Log in seconds — Type your weight, type your reps, tap done. The rest timer starts automatically. No menus, no friction. - Never guess weights again — Machine variant tracking remembers that 50kg on the Cybex leg extension is not the same as 50kg on the Life Fitness. Switch machines with one tap, and your weight history updates to match. - Smart plate calculator — Think in plates, not math. Just tap 20, 10, 5, 2.5 — your bar weight is calculated automatically. Customize your gym's available plates so you never see weights you can't actually load. - Upper/Lower, PPL, Full Body — Build workout cycles the way you actually train. Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower 1, Lower 2 — or any structure you want. Rotate through cycles, duplicate them for next phase. - Exercise alternatives — Barbell bench taken? Swap to dumbbell bench with one tap. Keep your sets and reps, pick up where you left off. - Supersets, warm-ups, and goals — Group supersets visually. Mark warm-up sets so they don't pollute your PR tracking. Set targets — "8-12 reps, 1 RIR" — and see them right on your log screen. - Track every PR — Every time you hit a new max weight or rep, GymTrack Pro celebrates. Your progress charts show real lines of progression, not just numbers. - Rest timer that knows you — Set a default, override per exercise. Vibration when time's up. Skip with a tap. Never over-rest again. - KG and LBS — One tap to switch. Your history converts on the fly.
