Strengths and weaknesses
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.

Progress tracking is basic compared with dedicated trackers.
