Personal Trainer is the complete gym companion that works entirely offline. Choose a plan, follow session progress, log sets, and hit PRs.
Personal Trainer is an offline gym workout tracker for Android and iOS that lets you build weekly training plans, switch between saved plans, preview training days, follow completed movements across your plans, and log every set with smart progressive-overload suggestions. Friends are optional, achievements come in three tiers, and your data stays on your device.
Short answer. Personal Trainer is an offline gym workout tracker for Android and iOS. You build weekly plans, log every set, and get progressive overload suggestions rounded to the plates you actually own. Friends mode is optional, achievements come in three tiers, and every workout stays on the device. Premium is a one-time unlock, not a subscription.
Pick your training days, name them (Chest Day, Leg Day, Pull Day), fill each with movements from the library. Start today’s planned workout, or the next scheduled day when you’re resting. Resume a session started today, and revisit older sessions through day previews and history. Browse illustrated movements with muscle targeting, guides, and one-tap YouTube form links.
Log weight, reps, difficulty. Quick-log a set from any exercise page without starting a full session. Personal records are detected automatically. Built-in rest timer (15s–10min) with audible bell, plus a work timer with tempo markers.
After every set the app proposes your next weight based on the last difficulty rating. Suggestions rounded to standard plate increments. Too easy bumps you up, too hard dials you back.
Friend codes, a shared leaderboard for Total lifted / Sets / Time / Daily Challenges over week, month, year. Share plans and custom movements. Hide your stats anytime. The whole app works without ever adding a friend.
Workout history with volume, sets, tonnage per session. Switch personal records between heaviest lifts and estimated one-rep max (1RM). Eligible sets of 1–10 reps show an Epley estimate in kg or lbs, with an explanation and source set. Tap an active training-calendar day or 7D chart bar for a recap of your sets, time, volume, and records.
See the muscles you’ve trained on interactive front and back diagrams. Tap a muscle or collection card to browse matching movements, illustrations, target roles, and guides. Filter by muscle head or region where available, and track coverage alongside the 72-hour recovery view.
Local-first storage. Optional, encrypted cloud sync backs you up across devices. Dark theme tuned for gym lighting, haptics on interactions, weights in kg or lbs.
VIP Premium is a one-time in-app purchase, no recurring charges.

Take a quick video tour of the app.
Marcus trains three days a week after work. He doesn't have a coach and doesn't want a subscription. Here's what his Monday push day looks like inside the app.
Marcus opens Personal Trainer in the locker room. His push plan loads instantly, no login screen, no feed, no ads. He sees bench press is first, with last week's numbers pre-filled: 80 kg × 5 reps. He checks his muscle recovery view before starting today’s planned workout.
He logs 80 kg × 6. The set shows an estimated 1RM of 96 kg. He rates the difficulty and starts a 90-second rest timer with an audible bell. The estimate helps him compare strength progress across eligible sets with different rep counts.
Marcus logged 6 exercises, 18 sets. The session summary shows total volume (4,620 kg lifted), three PRs, and a muscle recovery update. Next time he opens the app, bench press will suggest 82.5 kg, one standard plate step up, based on how he rated that last set. No guessing, no spreadsheet.
Marcus travels for work. He's at a hotel gym with no Wi-Fi and his data is capped. Personal Trainer opens the same as always, all plans, all history, all suggestions stored locally. He logs the session, it syncs later when he reconnects. Nothing was lost.
Knowing what a tool won't do saves you time. Personal Trainer is deliberately focused.
The app doesn't use your camera to assess movement. It provides written form cues and a one-tap YouTube link per exercise, but real-time video feedback is not part of it. For video coaching, you'd pair it with a replay tool.
Personal Trainer tracks sets, reps, and load, not macros or calories. If you need a food log, use a dedicated app alongside it. The two concerns are separate, and mixing them tends to make both worse.
There's no social feed, no comment section, no in-app personal trainer to message. The friends leaderboard compares totals, it's competition, not coaching. If you want a human coach reviewing your programming, that's a different product.
This is a feature, not a limitation, but worth stating clearly. VIP Premium is one payment, forever. There's no monthly tier to cancel, no paywall that grows over time. The price you see is the price you pay, once.
