Basic Gym ٤+

This is a great app for keeping track of your workouts without all the junk most throw at you to justify their costs. This lets you create you own exercises and group them, and log the weight/reps of you activities in a simple design. What else do you need?

The developer was also very responsive when I had trouble after an update and worked quickly to help. Didn’t expect that, especially from a free app! Keep up the good work!

Yay, for the next unobtrusive workout tracker. It comes set up with a body group of muscles... like chest. The you open that page and it has 20 chest exercises. I immediately deleted the chest folder and created my Monday Workout. In that folder, I put all of the exercises do on Monday. For each exercise, I get the opportunity of creating as many sets as I want. It allows me to input # of lb and # of reps for each set. Perfect.

For future updates: I would love to be able to be able to update the name of an exercise without it deleting all of my historical data. Right now, there is no edit function. One must delete the exercise and add it in again. In addition, I like being able to see notes about each exercise regarding what my workout plan prescribes... I’m envisioning opening up squats and at the top of the page: Notes: 4 sets, 8 to 10 reps. Here’s the catch: just because in this workout Squats are 8 to 10 reps does not mean that in 6 weeks it will not change to Squats: 3 sets, 15 to 20 reps. It needs to be flexible.

Good tracking app to track your performance and pick up where you left off. Suggestions: Would like to have a notes section for each exercise tied to the date so you can notate whether it was too easy, hard or need to increase weight on the next session. Also would love some sort of integrated graph to see progression over time. Does not have to be fancy at all but would be more motivating. Finally would love the capability to export to a csv file so that I could slice and dice data over time. Thanks!
