Anneal vs UpRep

Anneal is the strength trainer whose engine progresses you, and shows its work. Most workout apps hand you a plan, then go quiet. Anneal keeps progressing you, knows which muscles are still sore, and tells you why a weight moved. EVERY LIFT KNOWS ITS NEXT STEP A deterministic, evidence-based engine (linear, double progression, DUP) sets weight and reps for your program and generated sessions. Loaded lifts you add to any workout progress too. Finish and see next time's targets. IT ADJUSTS WHILE YOU TRAIN Rate a set's effort and that lift's remaining sets adjust: a grinder eases the load, an easy set nudges it up, always within tight bounds. One tap undoes it. LOG IT HOW YOU LIFT Long-press Add set for a drop set, myorep or partial reps. They stay in your history and never change your next prescription. Illustrated demos cover hundreds of lifts. IT KNOWS WHAT'S STILL SORE Every set you log shows on a muscle recovery map: fatigued, recovering, or fresh. After a session, a five second check-in shares its guess. Confirm or correct it, and Anneal learns how fast your muscles recover. Muscle detail shows weekly sets and which lifts counted. IT ADAPTS TO HOW RECOVERED YOU ARE Anneal reads heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and sleep from Apple Health to estimate today's readiness. With Pro, a low score trims load and volume, and a rough day reshapes the session, with before and after shown. This data never leaves your device. NO BLACK BOX, EVER Tap any prescribed set and see the rule that fired and the data behind it. A weekly changelog lists progressions, deloads, and new PRs. SEE WHERE YOU'RE HEADED Progress charts each lift's estimated 1RM and your bodyweight trend. Pro's 8-week forecast runs the same engine forward, with the likely deload week. Set a Goal Lift and see a projected date. BUILD YOUR OWN PROGRAM Pick the days, lifts, and how each progresses. Vary reps over time: lighter to heavier, heavier to lighter, or undulating. Or save a workout as a routine. Free keeps one custom program or routine, Pro is unlimited. Templates are always free, with dumbbell and bodyweight plans for beginners. A QUIET START Your first sessions stay simple: a short workout for your equipment and one goal at a time. More appears as you train. LIFE HAPPENS. ANNEAL PLANS FOR IT. Away mode shrinks your weekly target and quiets notifications. Back after 10 days or more? Weights ramp you back in. YOUR DATA IS YOURS, AND IT COMES WITH YOU Switching from Strong, Hevy or Fitbod? Import their CSV and pick up where you left off. No account needed. Your data stays on your device by default, and CSV export is always free. IT WORKS WITH THE GYM YOU ACTUALLY HAVE Profile any gym with your real plates and dumbbells. A coverage report shows which muscles you can fully train. BUILT AGAINST BURNOUT No daily streak, no guilt copy. Set a weekly target, and rest days count toward it. Trials are 28 to 75 day arcs. Nothing ever resets you to day one. IPAD, APPLE WATCH AND SIRI On iPad, a sidebar and side-by-side columns show your session, recovery, and progress at once. On Apple Watch: your next set, a haptic rest timer, and adjustable reps and weight, free on every plan. Ask Siri to log a set or start your workout. HONEST PRICING Every new install starts with 14 days of full access: every Pro feature, free, no signup, no card. Then choose. Free keeps the full logger, every template, one custom program or routine, live RPE adjustments, 90 days of history, and unlimited export. Pro adds workout generation, readiness adjustments and reshaping, unlimited custom programs, the 8-week forecast, pain and soreness patterns, full history, and optional cloud sync. Monthly, yearly, or once for lifetime. Anneal does not use AI to write your program. It runs published, testable rules, the same every time.

UpRep is your gym and workout tracker for strength training, workout plans and measurable progress. Choose your workout from the calendar, complete your sets and let UpRep calculate your next target for weight and reps. Within your chosen rep range, UpRep increases your reps first. Once you reach the upper limit, your selected weight increment is added and the rep target starts again at the lower end of your range. This helps you apply progressive overload without constantly calculating your next target during your workout.
