Fitbod
- Removes the guesswork of planning workouts
- Adjusts weights and volume as you progress
- Video demos across its exercise library
- Subscription required after the trial
- Logging is slower than dedicated trackers
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.
