GymAdapt: log in one tap, next weight already there
Every set shows what you did last time and today's target. Tap to log, the rest timer starts, and when you beat your target the next session's weight goes up on its own. Free to start; code TRYFREE01 gives a month of Pro free.
A notes app or a paper log works until you want to know what you benched three weeks ago. A good tracker makes logging faster than writing, shows last time's numbers next to today's set, and turns your history into charts and personal records.
What makes a good weight and rep tracker
- One tap per set. Weight and reps pre-filled from last time, so you only change what changed.
- Last time, on screen. You should never have to scroll history mid-set.
- A rest timer that starts by itself.
- Records and charts per exercise, so progress is visible.
- Your data is yours: export to CSV, sync to Apple Health.

Tracking is half the job
A log tells you what happened. Progress comes from what you do with it: add a little weight or a rep when you beat last time, hold when you just made it. Research comparing adding load with adding reps found both build strength and muscle, so either works as long as something goes up. Apps that read your log and set the next target do that step for you.
GymAdapt is free to start. Want Pro free for a month?
The free version gives you an AI-built plan and unlimited workouts. Code TRYFREE01 adds a full month of Pro: weights that adjust from what you log and unlimited coach chats.
Redeem the free month → Opens the App Store with the code filled in. iPhone only. After the month it's $4.99/mo unless you cancel in Settings, and the free version stays yours either way.Questions people ask

Hevy or Strong for tracking?
