GymAdapt: plan, log and progress in one place
Warm-up sets on your big lifts, a plate calculator for the bar, a rest timer that learns how long you really rest, and next week's weights set from this week's sets. Free to start; code TRYFREE01 gives a month of Pro free.
A weightlifting app has to be fast between sets and smart between sessions. Fast means logging a set in a second with last time's numbers in view. Smart means knowing when to add weight. Most apps are one or the other.
