Workout tracker for the gym

Workout tracker app that logs every set in seconds

The GrabGains workout tracker app records every set, rep and weight in a few taps, keeps what you lifted last time one tap away and flags a new PR the moment you hit it. Your progress, records and volume per muscle group are calculated for you, so your log actually tells you something.

Simple workout tracker

Log a set in seconds, right between sets

Open today's workout and tap in weight and reps as you go. What you did last time is one tap away, and in your exercise log every set sits next to last time's numbers, so you know straight away whether you beat it. Warm-up sets are kept apart from your working sets, and a new personal record is flagged the moment you log it.

  • Your previous session one tap away while you log
  • Warm-up sets kept apart from your working sets
  • New PRs flagged as soon as you log them

Workout progress tracker

Every exercise has its own history

Tap an exercise to see how it has developed over time. Max weight, volume and reps are plotted per session, and the app calculates an estimated one-rep max from your best set, so you can follow your strength without ever testing a max.

  • Max weight, volume and reps per session in one chart
  • Estimated 1RM calculated from your best set
  • Every past session and PR per exercise

Personal records and consistency

PRs and streaks that keep you coming back

Your latest personal records are collected in one overview, with weight, reps and date. The training calendar shows which days you trained, which weeks you hit your target and how long your streak has been running.

Achievements along the way: from your first rep to never skipping leg day, they mark the milestones in your training.

  • Latest PRs per exercise with weight, reps and date
  • Weekly streak and workouts per month
  • Go-to lifts: the exercises you train most

Muscle Zone Tracking

See which muscle groups get enough work

The app turns your logged sets into volume per muscle group. Muscle distribution shows where your work went over the past 30 days, and Grow shows how many sets each muscle group has had against your weekly target. You spot a lagging body part before it becomes a gap.

  • Weekly volume and training time at a glance
  • Muscle distribution over the past 30 days
  • Sets per muscle group against your weekly target

Workout planner and tracker

Your workout is ready before you start

A workout tracker is quickest when it already knows what you're going to do. The app plans your week with Smart Workouts based on your goal, schedule and equipment, so you open it, start the workout and log. Prefer your own routine? Build a custom workout and track it the same way.

  • Today's workout ready on the home screen
  • Custom workouts for your own routine
  • Reorder or swap exercises without losing your history

Why GrabGains

Why it works

Fast enough for the gym

Logging a set takes a few taps, so tracking never slows down your workout or your rest periods.

Nothing to calculate

Volume, estimated 1RM, personal records and muscle distribution are worked out from your log automatically.

Every type of training

Barbell, dumbbells, machines, cable, bands or bodyweight: it all counts toward the same progress.

iPhone and Android

The same workout tracker app on iOS and Android, so you can track on whichever phone you use.

What the best workout tracker app should do

The best workout tracker app makes logging faster than writing it down and turns your log into insight. That comes down to three things: quick input during your workout, your previous performance always at hand, and progress calculated for you. Without those, you're keeping a diary instead of tracking progress.

01

Logging in seconds

Weight and reps per set in a few taps, with a rest timer, plate calculator and separate warm-up sets.

Weight training in the app
02

Previous performance

Your last session is one tap away while you log, and the app suggests a weight per exercise so you always know what to aim for.

03

Progress per exercise

Charts for max weight, volume and reps, plus an estimated one-rep max calculated from your best set.

Comparison

Notes app, basic tracker or GrabGains

A notes app or notebook is always at hand, but you calculate everything yourself. A basic workout tracker stores your sets, but rarely tells you what they mean. GrabGains logs, calculates and plans in the same app.

What you want Notes or paper Basic tracker GrabGains
Logging sets during your workout Slow Yes Yes, in seconds
Previous session while you log Scroll back Sometimes Yes, one tap away
