MyGymBuddy
Equipment-aware training

Your program shouldn’t fall apart when the rack is taken.

MyGymBuddy knows what's in the room. Tell it what each place has — a commercial gym, a garage rack, two adjustable dumbbells — and the same routine resolves itself against whatever is actually there.

The engine

One routine. Every room you train in.

Most apps hand you a program and leave you to improvise when the rack is taken. MyGymBuddy stores what each place actually has, and resolves every slot in your routine against it — automatically, before you walk in.

Your kit

Struck through means you don't have it. Switch profiles and watch the routine beside this one re-resolve itself — same program, different room.

The sacred screen

Log a set without breaking focus.

Everything on the logging screen earns its place, and nothing moves under your thumb.

Set-for-set memory

Last time's whole session, before you start this one.

Most apps show you a single number from last time — usually the last set you did, offered as the target for your first. MyGymBuddy shows the entire spread, set matched to set, the moment you open the exercise. You plan the whole thing up front instead of discovering it one set at a time.

Today, set 1 opens at 82.5 × 8 — not at last set’s 80 × 7.
Nothing is ever lost

Every delete in this app is reversible.

Discard a workout by mistake and one tap puts it back — mid-session, every set intact. Edit a weight you mistyped three weeks ago and the personal records downstream recalculate themselves rather than pointing at something that no longer exists. Your training history is not a thing software should be able to lose.

Undo
Restores the session in progress, exactly where you left it.
Real maxes, not just estimates

Test your actual one-rep max, and keep it honest.

Estimated 1RM is a formula off a working set — useful, and always a guess. Record a genuine all-out single on any compound lift and it counts as a real personal record. It's also deliberately kept out of your working-set targets, so a 140 kg single never turns into tomorrow's prescription or reads as a failed set to the progression engine.

SuperSets, done properly

Group exercises, rest only after the last one.

Tick two or more exercises in a routine and MyGymBuddy runs them back to back — zero rest between members, a full rest only once you've cleared the last one in the group, then it wraps back to the first for the next round. Change your mind mid-workout and ungroup with one tap, either just for today's session or from now on.

PUSH DAYSuperSet A
A1 · Incline DB Press3 × 10
A2 · Cable Fly3 × 12
0s rest between A1 and A2 — the full 90s lands only after A2, then the pair repeats.

Swap on the spot

Wanted dumbbell shrugs, the routine said barbell. Change it where you stand, mid-set or before you've started — you're only offered what your equipment can do, and you choose whether the swap sticks just for today or from now on.

Rest that finds you

The commit bar becomes the timer in place. Lock the phone and a notification brings you back.

Heart rate, attached · Pro

Wear a Galaxy Watch and the session's average and peak find the right workout on their own via Health Connect — even one typed up afterwards.

Back it up, your way

One JSON file restores everything if you lose the phone. With Pro, export a spreadsheet — exercises down the side, sessions across the top — built for reading progress, not restoring it.

Progress you can read

Weight, reps, and estimated 1RM — plotted separately.

A single blended "strength score" hides the thing you actually want to see. Chart the raw numbers instead, switch between them, and read the value at every point where it changed. The last 90 days are free; six months and your whole history come with Pro.

Swipe between exercises

Reviewing a session? Swipe left and right through every exercise you did that day without going back to the list each time.

2

PRs that stay honest

Max weight, max reps, and best estimated 1RM per lift. Warm-ups never count. Delete a workout and the records recalculate rather than pointing at something that no longer exists.

3

Fix the past

Mistyped a weight three weeks ago? Edit it, and every PR and chart downstream corrects itself. Backfill whole sessions from paper, too.

4

Rest, applied to all

Set a rest period once and push it across every exercise in the day, instead of tapping through six of them one at a time.

5

Your week at a glance

How many weeks in a row you've trained, counted in weeks so a rest day never breaks it. With Pro, hard sets per muscle this week against last, and a 12-week trend for every muscle.

6

Plates, worked out for you

Type the weight and see what goes on each side of your own bar, with a warm-up ramp one tap away. It only suggests and never logs anything for you.

Built for people who take this seriously.

Light or dark, free. Two more skins and three more accents with Pro — because the screen you stare at between sets should look the way you want. No account, no ads, no analytics, and no connection required. Your history lives on your device and stays there.

Good to know

Questions worth asking.

What’s free, and what’s Pro?

Everything you need to log and plan is free, with no caps: unlimited routines and history, the whole logger including the plate calculator, Home and Gym equipment profiles with substitution, three built-in programs, progress charts for the last 90 days, PRs, and full backup and restore. Pro is a single one-time unlock (price to be confirmed) for going deeper: sets per muscle and a 12-week trend, charts over your whole history, four more programs and a session planner, extra equipment profiles, watch heart rate, the spreadsheet export, and two more skins and three more accents. No subscription, no recurring charge, and never an upgrade prompt while you’re logging a set.

Do I have to use one of the built-in programs?

No. Sourced templates are there if you want ready-made programming, but you can build routines from scratch with full control over exercises, sets, reps, and rest — and most people do.

What happens when the gym is busy and my machine is taken?

Swap the exercise from the logging screen. The picker only offers movements your current equipment profile can actually perform, so you never get handed a substitute you can't do.

Can I train at two different places?

That's the point. Home and Gym are set up from the start; switch between them with one tap, and add more — a hotel, a work gym — with Pro. The same routine resolves differently in each, so you're not maintaining two programs.

Does it need an internet connection?

Never. Everything runs locally on your device, including your full history and every chart. There's no server, no sync, and no account.

So if I lose my phone, I lose my training history?

Only if you never backed up. Settings has a one-tap export to a single JSON file with every workout, routine, PR and equipment profile — restore it on a new phone and you're back where you left off. With Pro there's also a spreadsheet export for reading progress in Numbers or Excel, but that one's for reading, not restoring.

What if I forget my phone and write it on paper?

Add the workout afterwards, dated to the day it happened. It slots into your history and PRs correctly — and, with Pro, if you wore a watch, the heart-rate data still finds it.

Do warm-up sets mess up my numbers?

No. Mark the first set as a warm-up and it's structurally excluded from volume, estimated 1RM, and every personal record.
