Train consistently. See every gain. IronVow is a private, local-first fitness journal with a strength-RPG layer built on top — so the work you put in actually feels like progress. Whether you're chasing a new bench PR or just trying to keep a streak alive on a busy week, IronVow gives you the surface to log it, the analytics to see it, and (if you want) a Medieval Mode character who levels up alongside you. WHAT'S IN THE BOX Logging that doesn't get in your way • One-tap "log set" — pre-fills your last weight + reps. • Voice logging — say "log 100 by 8" between sets. • Templates for your usual lifts, plus a free-form quick log. • Supersets, drop sets, RPE / RIR, per-set notes. Analytics that mean something • Estimated 1RM with five-formula consensus (Epley, Brzycki, Lombardi, McGlothin, Mayhew). • Per-exercise strength progression chart. • Weekly volume tracker tuned to Renaissance Periodization (MEV / MAV / MRV bands per muscle group). • Movement-pattern balance: push / pull / squat / hinge / carry / lunge / core coverage at a glance. • Training heatmap, hall of records, consistency score. Recovery + readiness • Daily readiness chip combining sleep, recovery, and recent training load (Gabbett-style ACWR). • Auto-suggested deload weeks when your acute load spikes. • Body weight + body measurement history with a trend chart. The RPG layer (optional) Flip on Medieval Mode and the same numbers power a character: log workouts to earn XP, finish quests for gear, roll dice for legendary drops, and battle bosses tuned to your training pattern. Spartan and Cyberpunk seasons are coming soon. Switching modes is non-destructive — your XP, streaks, and achievements stay shared. Privacy as the default, not a feature IronVow is local-first by design. Your workouts, body data, and notes never leave your device unless you choose to export them. No accounts required, no servers in the loop, no third-party analytics SDKs, no ad networks. Apple Health integration is entirely opt-in and read-only. No dark patterns • Streaks don't shame you. We won't send "you broke your streak" guilt notifications. • Notifications are off by default — you turn on what you want. • Export your data anytime as CSV or JSON. You own it. • Delete everything in two taps. We won't try to talk you out of it. Built for lifters by lifters. Designed for the 90-second rest between sets — every primary action is a one-handed thumb tap from the lower third of the screen. FREE VS. PRO Free forever: Unlimited workout logging, full history, Apple Health read/write, Medieval Mode, basic insights, CSV export, every theme that ships, two-tap data deletion. The full lifter experience.
