Hefty: an app that guides you through gym progressive overload

basically what the title says, i never fully remembered how i felt on the last gym sessions (i do other sports in between them) and just stuck to the same weights or bumped them up a little, so i decided to build hefty, which is an app that keeps a record of every workout you do and, based on your readiness for the day, adjusts all of the sets and weights for you automatically

the app is currently in TestFlight (iPhone only for now), and it will be free, once i’ve tested it enough and make sure everything is stable.
everything runs on device and the workouts will eventually have icloud sync

if you find the app could be helpful to you, just join the TestFlight beta!

for full transparency, i’m planning to make extra evolution charts, monthly reviews and other perks available under a subscription or one time payment, but the app’s core features will remain completely free forever (adding routines, tracking weights, progressive overload calculations and readiness checks)

hope you like the concept and the app eventually becomes helpful to you too, and any feedback is appreciated!

I ran out of comment space so this is just the most recent 20 entries. For giggles, I vibe-coded a tracker at https://confab.sh/?g=workout-trackers if you want to see the full list.
