Gym Workout Alpha Progression

Love how it tracks your progression!!

The app isn’t horrible but far from “Alpha” as far as tracking lifts it’s a good tracker app. As far as progression, leaves much to be desired. It must run off a very basic generator because the progressions don’t make sense. I’m going back to the RPhypertrophy app. Much more expensive but I’m willing to pay more for something if I feel like I’m getting the value for my money. And this app just wasn’t it.

I’ve been using this app regularly for nearly four years at this point, and it’s worked great for me thus far. I use the free version, which has almost everything one would need to design their own program. The only thing I can think of to better my experience would be implementing some form of custom periodization in the free version. I can understand if the developers want to continue to gatekeep this feature to incentivize switching to a paid membership, but I think there’s a way to adjust this feature for the free version in order to reward people who know how to make their own programs without the algorithm’s assistance. For example, the free version could use a periodization feature without any guidance for the user, and the membership could give suggestions, or maybe allow for more complex program structures? Besides this, the app has everything you would need to make simple programs and incredible progress. I will continue to use this app moving forward as long as it provides consistently helpful features and a layout that is easy to understand and navigate.
