Strengths and weaknesses
Hevy
- Generous free plan with unlimited workout logging
- Quick, clear logging screen mid-workout
- Active community for routines and motivation
- Free plan caps the number of saved routines
- Less hand-holding than coaching apps like Fitbod
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.

Strong Workout Tracker
- One of the quickest loggers to use between sets
- Clean, distraction-free design
- Reliable history and personal record tracking
- Free plan limits saved routines
- Slower to add new features than newer rivals
Strong is the veteran of workout logging and still one of the fastest. The interface stays out of your way: pick a routine, log sets, and let the rest timer and previous numbers guide you. Its Apple Watch app is excellent. The free version limits how many routines you can save, so regular users will want Strong PRO. There is no social feed, which some lifters will see as a plus.
