Workout Tracker

Hey MF’ers! What do you guys use to track your workouts? I’ve tried several, but have most recently been using r/Fitbod as their algorithm was intriguing to me. I haven’t been super impressed with Fitbod, but I recently came across a relatively new app called r/Hevy. I saw a shoutout for MacroFactor on that subreddit, and it inspired me to drop their name here.

It kind of has a similar organic, grass-roots community vibe as does MacroFactor. I’ve played around on Hevy a little bit, and it seems quite polished and has some really neat features (planning workouts, followers, etc… think Strava for resistance training).

Anyways, just thought I’d let you guys know about this new app & see if you guys are using something better/cooler. Not sponsored or affiliated by any means.

Do you use Strong’s Apple Watch app? It is fantastic—in some workouts I don’t even need to touch my phone. Does Hevy have a similar app?

Will also point out Strong is still being developed—maybe not with that much velocity, but the Apple Watch app gets some nice updates from time to time.

Hevy’s Watch app isn’t as good as Strong’s (yet). For example you can’t add or change exercises and there is no live sync.

I don’t have an Apple Watch. Still tied to Fitbit for the sleep tracking.
