The verdict

Fitbod builds your next strength workout for you. It looks at your equipment, recent training and muscle recovery, then picks exercises, sets and weights that progress over time. That takes the guesswork out of the gym, especially for beginners. The catch is the price: after a short free trial you need a subscription, and logging feels slower than in Strong or Hevy.
