Hey guys,

I am trying to find a good app for workout planning and tracking. I am currently using Strong, which works well for keeping track of my workouts, but planning workouts ahead of time seems to be out of scope for that app.

The background for this is that I want to change my routine to wendler 5/3/1 and I want to have the app tell me the amount of sets and reps as well as the weight that I am supposed to use.

I hope my request makes sense for you guys, I am sure there's something out there matching my needs.

I ended up building my own spreadsheet tracker for 531. Give me a while to make a sanitized copy and I can link it out. It’s not fully automated, but it works (for me at least).

E: So I keep this in Google Drive and can't find a way to share it without doxxing myself. If someone can suggest a way I can share it anonly please let me know and I'll do it.

Thank you for the response. I was thinking about an actual app, since I hate working on spreadsheet on my phone, especially while in the gym.

I've been using https://www.fitnotesapp.com/ and the routine feature now for a few years and it's a "it just works" app for me.

Would this work? https://f-droid.org/packages/de.wger.flutter/

Also if you search "workout" on the fdroid store there is a pretty big selection.

I'm having good luck with wger as well. Been using it for about a year.

Thanks for the hint. I have seen wger as well and it seems good. The only issue that I have with it that it only allows for workout routines where the same workout happens at the same weekday. E.g. it is hard to describe a workout with A/B splits in there (like r/Fitness Basic Beginner Routine).

I guess it will work fine though, since I am trying to move away from that workout anyways.

As for the rest in f-droid store ... flexify and massive seem to be fine, but the others seem a bit outdated looking at their latest release dates.

I use Alpha Progression, it's paid, but does what you ask for!
