Alpha Progression

Choose Alpha Progression if you want structured strength programming and detailed lifting logs on a phone. Its free tier is useful for recording sessions and browsing a large exercise video library, while Pro supplies adaptive plans, set-by-set guidance and deeper analytics. The tradeoff is clear for watch users: the software offers phone notifications rather than a dedicated Apple Watch or Wear OS workout app. Check the free feature list and yearly trial conditions before subscribing, especially if you need charts or plan generation.

  • Unlimited free workout logging with sets, reps, RIR, notes and rest periods.
  • 795 exercises include instructional videos from certified trainers.
  • Pro generates editable plans and recommends weights and repetitions.
