About 5x5 Workout Tracker: Lift5x5
The 5x5 workout tracker that tells you exactly what to lift, and keeps you progressing when 5x5 gets hard. Open the app, see today's weights, lift, log. No math, no spreadsheets, no guessing. THE 5x5 PROGRAM - FREE - Workout A: Squat, Bench Press, Barbell Row - Workout B: Squat, Overhead Press, Deadlift - 3 workouts a week, about 45 minutes each Hit all your reps and the weight goes up next session. Miss three times in a row and the app deloads for you. That is the whole 5x5 program, free, with no ads. WHEN 5x5 STALLS - MORE PROGRAMS Most lifters stall on linear 5x5 after a few months. The next step is built in (Pro), and the app tells you when it's time to switch: - GZCLP: T1, T2 and T3 tiers, AMRAP last sets, and stage changes (5x3, 6x2, 10x1) instead of deloads - Madcow 5x5: weekly ramping sets to a heavy top set and a Friday PR - Texas Method: volume Monday, recovery Wednesday, a new 5-rep max every Friday - 5x5 variants: 3x5 Lite, 5x5 Mini, Ultra and Ultra Max SPECIALTY BLOCKS Short programs with one goal, then back to your regular training (Pro): - Smolov Jr: the 3-week squat program. All 12 sessions (6x6, 7x5, 8x4, 10x3) are worked out from your current squat - German Volume Training: 10 sets of 10 with 90 seconds of rest, the classic 10x10 size phase Every program calculates your weights, warm-ups and plates for you. Your working weights carry over when you switch. EVERYTHING AT THE BAR - Today's weights, sets and reps, ready when you open the app - Rest timer with a Live Activity that follows your whole workout - Log sets from your lock screen: when rest ends, tap the check mark, no unlocking - Warm-up sets calculated for every lift - Plate calculator in kg or lb, for your bar and your plates (microplates and custom plates supported) - Adjust any weight mid-workout, skip a set, or add notes - Not at the gym yet? Plan your first workout and get a reminder TRACK YOUR PROGRESS - Workout history with a calendar view and personal records - Progress graphs for every lift - Weekly and monthly recaps you can share - Streaks, milestones and a strength score - Export your data as CSV or JSON, free - Coming from another 5x5 app? Import your history from its CSV export in one step WORKS WITH APPLE HEALTH Every finished session is saved to Apple Health as a strength workout, so it counts toward your Move and Exercise rings. Import your bodyweight to keep your stats accurate. Your full set-by-set log stays in Lift5x5. PRO: YOUR COACH Optional Pro adds a coach layer on top of the free program: - Forecasts for your next plate milestones - Plateau warnings before you stall - Per-lift custom progression: increments, sets x reps and deload rules - All the programs above - Full anonymous strength leaderboards by bodyweight class - App color themes WHO IS IT FOR? - Beginners who want a proven barbell strength program - Intermediates ready for GZCLP, Madcow 5x5 or the Texas Method - Lifters who want a squat block or a size phase without a spreadsheet - Anyone who wants to get stronger in three short gym sessions a week Just you and the barbell.
