Build maximum strength with the classic 5x5 workout program. This simple weight lifting tracker, smart strength progression log, and clean gym planner are built specifically for serious lifters and powerlifters.
► The Ultimate 5x5 Workout Routine
The 5x5 program is a proven strength training method built around three full-body workouts per week. Each gym session focuses on core compound barbell lifts—squats, deadlifts, bench press, overhead press, and barbell rows—performed for 5 sets of 5 reps. With automatic progressive overload built in, you add weight consistently and keep getting stronger.

Excellent alternative to stronglifts, actually a better app all around. Love the historical tracking features and the usability of the weight calculator. My only issue is that it occasionally says I don’t have Pro and I have to restart my phone to re-enable it. But I’ve never lost any data or anything, so not a big deal. Would love to see a social/sharing feature added someday so you can track workouts with gym buddies.

This is great for 5x5 beginners like myself. Keeps me on track. Only thing isI wish I could make it play a sound after the timer goes off. Something to alert you to start your next set.

Was free
Dmaynard
App was free for a long time. Then the owners got greedy and want people to buy a subscription. Lost my history & workouts. Emailed support and their arrogant response was why don’t I just pay. Don’t bother with this app. Jerks for owners.
Developer Response
Hi, this app does not have a subscription model. It offers core features for free and an optional one-time upgrade for Pro features. I think there may be some confusion with another app. Please double-check that you’re reviewing the correct app.
Keeping it Simple
iheskitt
Just as good as the OG StrongLifts app—before it got locked behind a monthly subscription. If all you need is a simple, no-frills timer and 5×5 tracker, this app gets it done.
