In short

Gains in Progress is a strength training app that builds full workouts from your chosen time, training style, body part and equipment, with sets, reps and rest listed. It also suggests 2-3 key lifts for goals such as building muscle or losing fat, includes a library of over 200 lifts with instructions, and logs sets with a rest timer. One notable feature is that heavy squats and deadlifts stay at lower reps and progress by adding weight, and the app states when equipment cannot fill the chosen time.

About

Gains in Progress tells you exactly what to lift, and how, for the goal you have today.

BUILD A FULL WORKOUT Pick your time (20, 30, 45 or 60 minutes), your training style (Strength, Hypertrophy or Endurance), a body part and your equipment. You get a complete session: warm-up, main lifts and accessories, with sets, reps, rest and an estimated session length.

FIND THE RIGHT LIFT Building strength, building muscle, losing fat, improving mobility, training for sport, or just staying healthy? Answer a couple of questions and get the 2-3 lifts that matter most, plus alternates.

50 WORKOUT GOALS From your first pull-up to a 225 bench, pick a goal and get a plan built to reach it.

LOG EVERY SET Track weight and reps as you go, check off finished sets, and use the built-in rest timer. Switch between lb and kg anytime.

KNOW HOW TO DO EVERY LIFT A library of 200+ lifts. Tap any exercise to see how to perform it and which muscles it works.

BUILT-IN SAFETY Heavy squats and deadlifts stay at lower reps in every style and progress by adding weight, never by chasing high reps. If your equipment can't fill the time you picked, the app tells you honestly instead of padding the workout.
