About

Power Memo

Read full description

Power Memo is a workout log built the way lifters actually train — in cycles. Set your split up once: which muscle groups on which day, how long the cycle runs, how many times it repeats. From then on every training day is laid out ahead of you. Open the app at the gym and today's routine is already waiting. BUILD YOUR SPLIT • Assign muscle groups to each day and let the cycle rotate on its own • Three ways in: set a simple weekly frequency, design a day-by-day split, or count down to a contest date • 400 preset exercises to choose from, plus anything you name yourself • Link exercises into supersets and giant sets and log them as one block LOG EVERY SET • Weight and reps, set by set, with last session's numbers right in front of you • Drop sets, forced reps, assist machine and bodyweight-plus-load are all built in • A rest timer for each exercise that shows your own form cues while it counts down • Cardio logged in minutes and distance instead of weight WATCH IT CLIMB • Every exercise carries a rank, from Starter up to Champion, that rises with your numbers • Session-by-session bars for each lift: sets, top weight, total volume • Cycle progress at a glance — days elapsed, completion rate, personal records • A monthly calendar showing what you planned next to what you actually did MY REPORT Turn a session, a whole cycle, or a new personal record into a card you can save to Photos and post anywhere. NUTRITION AND BODY Log protein, fat, carbs, water and calories against daily targets, plus body weight and body fat. Add your own nutrients if the presets don't cover what you track. KG OR LBS, ENGLISH OR JAPANESE Switch units and language any time in Settings. Everything you have already logged carries over unchanged.
