Your training, built by you.
Most fitness apps hand you a catalogue and a program. Strainup hands you the tools: make the exercises, arrange the week, then share what you built.
Plan your week
Group your exercises into routines, drop them on the days you train, and just follow along. Log each set as you go and keep the full history.
Better with friends
Send a routine or a single exercise with a link or a QR code. Your friend, training partner or coach imports it into their own library in one tap.
What do you train?
One app for every discipline you practise. If you can describe it with reps, weight, time or distance, Strainup can track it.
- Strength
- Calisthenics
- Running
- Cycling
- Climbing
- Yoga & mobility
- Team sports
- Something else
Powerlifting and bodybuilding sessions, street workout skills, HIIT circuits, interval runs, hangboard sessions, stretching routines or your own hybrid program: they all live side by side in the same history.
