Plivex is a fitness journal with no forced templates. No preloaded exercise lists you don't need. You decide what to track and how. TOTAL FREEDOM Create any exercise with any parameters. Bench press with weight and reps, running with distance, plank with time — or something entirely your own. The app doesn't dictate the format, it adapts to your workout. NO CLUTTER No libraries of 500 exercises you'll never open. No mandatory programs or "recommended plans." Only what you've added yourself — clean and to the point. PROGRESS & HISTORY Track your progress for every exercise. See how your numbers grow — in the format that makes sense to you. WORKS OFFLINE All data is stored locally. Train without internet — sync happens automatically when you're back online. PERSONALIZATION Units, theme, language — everything adjusts to you. Nothing extra in the interface. Plivex is for those who know how they train and don't want to fit someone else's template.
