Gym Notes is a workout logbook designed for lifters who want full control over their training. Gym Notes adapts to you, whether you follow Starting Strength, Madcow 5x5, or a routine you built yourself.
What Makes Gym Notes Different?
Custom Plans let you build training plans with unlimited workout variations, custom exercises, and flexible set/rep schemes. Or pick from built-in templates like Linear Progression and Madcow 5x5.
Equipment Awareness means every exercise is tagged with its equipment type (barbell, dumbbell, or machine/cable). Barbell exercises automatically include the bar weight, and machine exercises with dual weight stacks show per-stack or total weight.
Smart Progression handles the math. Set your starting weights once and weight progresses automatically when you complete your prescribed sets and reps. Failed three sessions in a row? The deload kicks in automatically.
Warm-Up & Back-Off Sets are pre-calculated before you step into the gym. Warm-up sets use percentages of your working weight, and back-off sets let you add volume at reduced weight without affecting progression.
Workout Timers keep you on track with a rest timer that counts up between sets, using your Plan's configured rest durations. The workout clock tracks total session time.
Import & Export means your data is yours. Export your entire workout history as CSV and import it back whenever you need. No lock-in, no walled garden.
Cross-Platform availability on Android, iOS, and the web. Your data stays local to your device. No accounts, no cloud, no privacy concerns.
Gamification keeps you motivated with workout streaks, personal records (PRs) for every lift, and total volume tracking. Every completed workout shows your progress at a glance.
