NextLift: Barbell Tracker
Log lifts, load the bar
$0.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Logging your barbell workouts, made effortless. Record sets, watch your numbers climb, and see exactly which plates to load. A logbook - not a coach.
NextLift is the no-fuss way to track your barbell training. Open the app, record your sets, and get on with your workout. No accounts, no subscriptions, no clutter. Just a clean logbook for the lifts you do.
IMPORTANT: NextLift is a tracker, not a coach. It does not recommend weights, write programs, or give training, medical, or fitness advice. Nothing in the app is a recommendation to lift any particular weight. Lifting carries a risk of injury — always train within your ability, use proper technique, and work with a qualified coach or medical professional.
BUILT FOR THE BARBELL
• Set up your gear once: your bar weight and the exact plates you own.
• Track the classics out of the box: Bench Press, Barbell Back Squat, Overhead Press, Bent Over Row and Deadlift Add your own lifts anytime!
EFFORTLESS LOGGING
• The first time you do a lift, set a starting weight and the increase you want to use.
• Every session after, keep last time's weight, add your increase, or deload in a tap - then log your sets and reps.
• Weights are limited to what your plates can actually load, so you never plan a number you can't make.
GUIDED WORKOUTS
• Plan a whole session, then run it with a large on-screen rest timer between sets.
• Warm-up sets are built for you from your working weight, and everything saves to your history automatically.
• Live activities on your lock screen (compatible devices only) so you can lift without interruption.
SEE YOUR PROGRESS
• A clean home screen shows your recent workouts and your likely next lift.
• Chart any exercise over time (top set or total volume) to see your numbers move.
KNOW WHICH PLATES TO LOAD
• The built-in bar visualizer shows exactly how to load any weight, plate by plate, per side.
• Enter any number and NextLift tells you the loadout... or tells you straight if your plates can't make it work.
KILOGRAMS OR POUNDS
• Pick kg or lb and switch anytime. Your history is never altered.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• All your data stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, nothing sent to a server.
NextLift keeps the tracking simple so you can focus on the work. Set up your bar, log your lifts, and watch your progress add up - one session at a time.
