1RM

1RM is a focused workout tracker built for lifters who want measurable progress and simple logging. 1RM records every set, rep and kilogram in real time so you spend less time tapping and more time lifting. The app emphasizes clear data, fast entry and practical tools like rest timers and superset support to make each session efficient and easy to review later.

Key features

Real-time logging: log sets, reps and weight with a fast, uncluttered interface and immediate feedback; the built-in rest timer and audible or vibration alerts keep you on schedule between sets. Exercise library: access a 3,000+ exercise database sorted by muscle group and equipment, search by name or build unlimited custom exercises to reflect your gym setup. Routines & templates: create reusable routines, drag to reorder movements, group lifts into supersets or circuits and launch a workout with a single tap. Personal records: automatic PR detection for each lift plus estimated 1RM using the Epley formula, max weight and volume PRs that you can view on the fly or share as simple summaries. Analytics & charts: exercise progression, weekly and monthly volume, workout frequency and streaks are visualized so you can spot trends and plateaus quickly. Cloud sync & export: automatic backups and the ability to export your logs to CSV or JSON for offline analysis and archiving.

How tracking and controls work

The app uses straightforward controls to keep logging fast: tap to add sets, adjust weight and reps with simple input controls and use quick-edit options to correct entries during a session. Routines can be started or paused at any time and you can add warmup sets or mark effort levels to capture session intensity. Supersets and timed circuits are handled inside a single workout flow so you don’t need to jump between screens. Session summaries show total volume, number of sets and session duration immediately after you finish.

Progression, goals and challenge systems

1RM helps you apply progressive overload by turning logged numbers into actionable progression cues: compare current lifts to past PRs, track weekly volume for each muscle group and view estimated 1RM trends across months. Set simple goals and follow streak indicators to encourage consistency; the analytics highlight whether you’re increasing weight, reps or overall training frequency. These challenge systems are designed to be motivational without being prescriptive — you remain in control of how you progress.

Customization and routine structure

Build programs that match your training style: block a phase of strength, hypertrophy or conditioning by arranging workouts into templates and repeating them across weeks. Warmup templates, accessory circuits and cardio segments can be included inside the same routine so you get a complete session in one place. Unlimited custom exercises and editable templates make it easy to adapt programs for different gyms, home equipment or travel setups.

Visual style and user experience

The app emphasizes a clean, readable visual design with clear typography and charts that make trends easy to understand at a glance. Workouts use a single-screen flow when possible to reduce distractions between sets. Accessibility considerations include adjustable text sizes and straightforward navigation so lifters of varying experience can use the app comfortably during a busy gym session.

Data handling, offline use and compatibility

Workouts are recorded locally in real time and the app will sync to the cloud when a connection is available, so you can train offline and still keep a secure backup. Export options to CSV and JSON let you analyze or archive data externally. 1RM also supports Wear OS for quick glance information and simple in-session controls from compatible smartwatches.

Pricing and limitations

The free plan provides core logging, timers, the exercise library and basic analytics but limits workout history to seven days and offers only essential visualizations. Most advanced features — unlimited history, full PR tracking, weight/body tracking and export options — are included in the Premium tier, which is listed at $2/month. This model keeps the app accessible for casual users while providing deeper tools for long-term trackers and serious trainees.

Who should use 1RM

1RM is suited to lifters who want a no-nonsense training log that scales from basic sessions to structured programs. If you care about tracking strength gains, reviewing progress across months and building routines that match your goals, the app provides a practical, data-driven companion without unnecessary complexity.
