It never plans what you have not already done: one question after each workout, and the plan moves. No equipment, no account, no ads — everything stays on your phone.
Open the app — your workout is ready. That's the whole idea.
Dredfit is an adaptive bodyweight trainer that works like a thermostat. No onboarding quiz, no goal picker, no settings. It adjusts every next workout to how the last one went: answer one question afterwards — tough, on plan, or easy — and the plan moves. Already training? Enter what you did, and it becomes the plan.
WHERE IT STARTS
• Day one is three sets of four, in the gentlest variation of six movements: knee push-ups, squats, a glute bridge and the like. About 32 minutes with the warm-up and cool-down.
• That is where you start, not the least you can do: answer "tough" and the plan comes down — an easier variation, or a set off, as far as two sets of four, a session of about 24 minutes. What day one asks of you is the three sets of four. If that is roughly within reach, everything else follows from your answers; if it is not, this is the wrong tool for now — better said here than after you install it.
WHY IT WORKS
• Nothing is ever planned that you have not already done. Your position is two facts: the variation you are on, and the dose — reps in a set, or seconds in a hold. One step is +1 rep (or +5 seconds) in ONE set.
• A harder variation is not handed to you — you try it. At the top of the rep range the last set becomes a probe: one set of the next variation. Manage it and the next workout starts there. Don't, and the plan simply stays as it is — nothing about the working sets is lost.
• A pull in every workout keeps your shoulders in balance.
• Three shortfalls in a row roll that movement back three steps — a breather, not a punishment.
• No streaks, no guilt mechanics, no "we miss you". Ever.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• 59 exercises across 10 movement patterns, and no step up is more than half again as hard as the one before it — bar the one boundary where a hold turns into reps, crossed only by a probe. A chair, a table, a wall, a towel and a step cover 52 of them.
• Optional pull-up-bar module: switch it on and every other workout swaps in a vertical pull, from bar hangs to full pull-ups — the only seven variations needing equipment.
• Guided warm-up and cool-down, both pausable, with time to get ready before every position. Rest timers with a 3-2-1 countdown you can stretch as well as skip, hold timers for planks, and four seconds between any tap and any running clock.
• Every exercise explains itself: three technique steps, two common mistakes, and an "In life" line.
• A Live Activity counts the rest — and a hold — down on the lock screen; widgets in every size.
• Every movement has its own ladder with its own denominator, plus a chart and a calendar. Milestones are calm: no confetti.
YOU DECIDE HOW LONG IT TAKES
• Before you start, Today shows a range: the full workout, and the shortest that session can be made. Inside it you can drop a set while enough of the exercise still stands, leave the exercise, or drop all that is left of a longer one; the minutes fall as you go. The app never picks which movements you leave out.
• An interrupted workout can be continued, even if the app was closed mid-way. Out of time? "Finish now" records honestly what you did.
• Coming back after a break, the plan offers to meet you lower — further down the longer you were away — and catches up quickly, because it follows what you show.
• Rest days you choose, a reminder on training days, export and import of your history as plain JSON, and workouts saved to Apple Health with an estimate of what they cost.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
One fix, nothing else. A hold whose plan is uneven — 35-30-30 sec, say — and held exactly as asked came out as 35-35-30: on the movement's summary after its last set and in history — 35 on a set the clock had counted down from 30 — and the sentence under "Next time" lost its "if you rate the workout “on plan”" clause, as if a number had been typed. The record is now what the clock ran, set by set. The same slip touched "Went differently" on reps: entered on a later set of an uneven plan (8-7-7 came out as 8-8-7), or as a surplus on an early set that was then carried into the sets after it; both are fixed the same way.
The engine is not touched, and neither are the workouts already written: they keep the numbers they were written with. Because the number the engine sees is now the honest one, the next plan after such a workout may differ from what 2.4.2 would have set. No migration.
