Alpha Progression is a freemium iOS and Android strength-training app founded in 2019 in Eschborn, Germany. Its Pro plan generates editable programs and recommends weights and repetitions; the free plan logs workouts but omits those tools, charts and advanced options.

These alternatives cover different training needs: endurance planning, GPS activities, large program libraries, coaching, open-source control and free weight-training logs. Each changes what you can do on a phone, web browser or connected service.
