Valen - Gym & Recovery Tracker

Valen is a workout tracker and muscle recovery app that shows exactly which muscles are ready to train and which ones still need to recover. Instead of guessing if today should be push, pull, or legs, open the app and see a live muscle recovery heatmap for your whole body, broken down by subzone: upper vs lower chest, quads vs hamstrings, front vs rear delts, and more.

Most workout log apps only track sets and reps. Valen also tells you what your body can handle today.

No wearable needed. No guesswork. Just real data from your own training.

─── LIVE MUSCLE RECOVERY HEATMAP ───
See your whole body colour-coded by recovery status, covering chest, back, shoulders, arms, legs, and core. Tap any muscle to see exactly how recovered it is and when it'll be ready to train again.

─── BUILT ON REAL RECOVERY SCIENCE ───
Valen uses a Stimulus-Recovery-Adaptation model instead of fixed rest timers. Recovery time is calculated per muscle based on your RPE, exercise selection, weight lifted, and training experience, so beginners and advanced lifters get different recovery estimates.

It also tracks MEV, MAV, and MRV (Minimum Effective, Maximum Adaptive, and Maximum Recoverable Volume) per muscle group, per week, so you always know if you're training enough, in the sweet spot, or overdoing it.

─── DAILY TRAINING SUGGESTIONS ───
Every day, Valen shows you which muscle groups are most recovered and ready to train. One glance and you know if today should be push, pull, legs, or full body. No more overthinking your split or second-guessing your training plan.

─── FAST WORKOUT LOGGING ───
Log sets, reps, weight, and RPE in seconds. Built-in rest timer with push notifications. Plate calculator for quick loading. Autosaved drafts so a dead battery never costs you a session. Works with barbell, dumbbell, bodyweight, weighted, and assisted exercises, all tracked correctly for accurate volume.

─── ADAPTIVE WEEKLY PLANNER (PRO) ───
Your training week adjusts automatically based on real recovery data, not a fixed template. If a muscle group is more fatigued than expected midweek, Valen flags it and reshuffles your plan so you're never grinding a muscle that isn't ready.

─── DEEP MUSCLE INSIGHTS (PRO) ───
View subzone recovery breakdowns, 48-hour recovery forecasts, 7-day training load trends, and estimated 1RM history for every exercise. Catch muscle imbalances, like overdeveloped front delts vs underdeveloped rear delts, before they turn into injuries.

─── HOME SCREEN WIDGETS (PRO, ANDROID) ───
See your recovery heatmap and today's top training suggestion straight from your home screen, no need to open the app.
