Does it deserve #2?
The verdict
Hevy is the best workout tracker for most lifters. Logging sets is fast, rest timers and previous numbers sit right where you need them, and the free plan is unusually generous. A social feed lets you follow friends and copy their routines. Hevy Pro unlocks unlimited routines and deeper analytics. The main catch is that it tracks your training rather than planning it, so you bring the program.
- Fast set and rep logging
- Social feed and shared routines
- Apple Watch and Wear OS apps
- Progress charts and PR tracking
