Your gym log shouldn't be as boring as a spreadsheet. GymNerd turns every workout into an RPG. Log your lifts, earn XP, rank up your muscle groups, and watch your character evolve from a newbie with noodle arms into someone who definitely skips leg day less. LEVEL UP YOUR MUSCLES Every set you log counts. Bench more than last time? XP. Hit a new deadlift PR? XP. Finally finished all your sets on a day you really didn't want to? Extra XP, because that one was hard. Your muscle groups each have their own rank from Bronze to Legend. Get stronger in real life, rank up in the app. It's not a metaphor. The math is literally your performance. YOUR CHARACTER, YOUR STORY Your in-app character evolves as you train. Skip the gym and they look like it. Show up consistently and they start to look like someone who definitely knows what a Romanian deadlift is. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO LOVE GYMS AND ALSO HATE GYM APPS Most gym apps feel like tax software. GymNerd is built for people who think the best reward for a hard set is seeing a number go up and a little XP burst on screen. No toxic positivity. No "CRUSH IT, CHAMPION." Just honest tracking, clean stats, and the quiet satisfaction of a ranked-up muscle group. FEATURES Workout logging Log sets, reps, and weight. Every rep counts toward your XP. XP & leveling Earn XP on every completed set. Watch your overall level climb. Muscle group rankings 17 muscle groups, each ranked individually from Bronze to Legend. Your chest rank and your leg rank are different numbers. Yes, this is intentional. Player class system Stick with it and unlock your player class. The algorithm figures out what kind of lifter you actually are. Personal records PRs are tracked automatically. You'll know when you've beaten one. Streaks Keep your streak alive. Rest days exist and the app knows about them. No nonsense design — Clean, illustrated, slightly chaotic. No stock photos of men screaming at barbells. GymNerd is for people who take their training seriously but don't take themselves too seriously. Log a set. Earn some XP. Rank up.

Peptide therapy deserves better than a notes app and a guess. PepShot is a private record-keeping tool for treatment plans provided by your clinician or pharmacy. Enter your prescribed dose and schedule, then keep administrations, reminders, injection sites, vials, and history in one place. PepShot requires a paid PepShot Pro subscription.

Included with PepShot Pro (paid subscription required): • Today dashboard —> what's due, streaks, and 7-day adherence at a glance • Dose log —> record the amount administered; PepShot never calculates it • Site history —> review previously recorded injection sites • Cycles —> weeks-on / weeks-off handled automatically • Vial inventory —> what's left, days since reconstitution, reorder warnings • Dose reminders —> quiet nudges at your dosing windows • History —> calendar view, weekly trends, CSV export No account. No login. No cloud sync. Your protocol - every peptide, dose, site, and note - lives on your device, not on someone else's server.
