FitNotes, free for Android, is a workout tracker that emphasizes simplicity and a clean design. Its workout log allows you to quickly view daily workouts by swiping through the built-in calendar. You can add exercises and start recording weights and reps, or distance and time, with ease.

You can create a routine to provide quick access to your commonly used exercises and assign exercises to a particular day within the routine. FitNotes is an excellent app if you’re just getting started with workout logging due to its user-friendly interface and ease of use.

Fitbod aims to be a coach and trainer more than a mere log book. Fitbod’s training algorithm evaluates your strength-training ability, studies your past workouts, and adapts to your available gym equipment. Then it builds your custom workout.

Fitbod will suggest a workout of the day, with suggested sets, rep counts, and weights based on A. S. Prilepin’s famous powerlifting chart. Swapping exercises that target the same muscles is easy, and you can customize each workout freely. Fitbod comes with an extensive library of exercises that includes descriptions and videos with proper form.

Fitbod is not free, but it offers a free trial for new users. After the trial, it automatically converts to a Fitbod Elite premium subscription. Fitbod Elite allows you to generate and log unlimited workouts.
