Answer four questions. Get a gym plan built around your goal, schedule, equipment, and experience. A PLAN THAT FOLLOWS YOUR SETUP Pick "dumbbells only" and Loadwise keeps machine, cable, and barbell exercises out. Choose strength and your sets, reps, and rest change with it. Train two days or six — the split changes with your schedule. PROGRESSION YOU CAN SEE Log every set. When you reach the top of your rep range across all sets, Loadwise moves your target forward for the next session. If performance drops twice, it backs off. Your next target comes from what you actually logged. BUILT FOR THE GYM FLOOR • One exercise at a time with big weight × reps controls. • Enter your weight directly, then tap each completed set. • Rest timers start automatically between sets. • 100 exercises across barbell, dumbbell, machine, cable and bodyweight. • Workout history stays readable whether or not you buy Pro. HONEST BY DESIGN • No subscription. No ads. One purchase. • No account. Your training data stays on this device. • Because there is no account, your history does not move to a new phone. • No AI trainer, social feed, or nutrition clutter. FREE Build one training plan, log every workout, and keep your history. LOADWISE PRO — ONE-TIME PURCHASE Rebuild your training plan whenever your goal, schedule, equipment, or experience changes. Unlock plan rebuilds forever with one purchase. General fitness information only. Not medical advice — consult a professional before starting any program.
