In an era of subscriptions and endless ways to charge you, Chicken is built to last. One payment, no account, no ads — and room for everything you want to add: your exercises, your plans, your foods.
It asks a little patience at the start: Chicken doesn't decide for you, it gives you the controls. Learn them once and it stays with you for years.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Limit Break. Every exercise now has a limit — sets × reps (or seconds) at a load. Hit it two sessions in a row and, at the end of the workout, break it: accept the suggested step or set your own. Rings in the Exercises library show how close each exercise is; the exercise page keeps the history. Custom plans can set how many sessions each exercise needs.
Focus mode. One set at a time, the animation in front of you, timer and next/previous — from the button at the bottom of any workout.
Your own photos and videos on exercises, plans and techniques.
Import a food by scanning its barcode (Open Food Facts). Check the label, adjust, save — it then lives on your phone.
Diet Settings rebuilt: Smart range, Range or Fixed targets, with an honest energy balance.
Also: timed sets in minutes and seconds with a lead-in and a ding; tap anywhere to close a keyboard; clearer paywall when the App Store is unreachable; the end-of-workout screen shows whether the workout reached Apple Health; workout duration can be corrected afterwards; plan-page fixes.
Removed: XP levels and Body Stats — Limit Break replaces them.
