SoleGym

The solo lifter's ledger

Train alone.
Miss nothing.

You log the set. SoleGym runs the rest timer, reads the session lift by lift, and decides what the bar carries next time — then plans the block that gets you there. It never asks who you are, and it can't reach the internet. The logger is free; the coaching layer is one Pro unlock, paid once.

The whole product in one loop

Log it. Finish it.
Let it decide.

Most trackers are a notebook that adds up. SoleGym reads what you did and commits to what comes next.

Type the set

Weight, reps, RPE. Tick it and the rest timer starts itself. Every keystroke is saved.

Finish the session

The engine runs once, on save, and reads the whole session lift by lift.

Read the verdict

One row per lift: the new weight, a direction, and why. It's waiting on the card next time.

The session summary screen listing each lift's engine decision with a direction glyph, the new weight and the reason.

“Next time — engine decisions”

A decision per lift, with its reasoning:

  • Trap Bar Deadlifthold — chasing reps140 kg
  • T-Bar Row+2.562.5 kg
  • Weighted Chin-Up (Belt)+2.510 kg
  • Dumbbell Facepull+2.515 kg
  • EZ Bar Curl (Normal Grip)+2.530 kg
  • Machine Crunch+2.547.5 kg

A judgement per lift, not a number that creeps up because a week went by. Miss the reps and it holds. Miss twice and it drops 10% to rebuild.


Five tabs, no menus

Everything it does,
and where it lives.

Log — the set, and the rest

  • The target is already there. Sets, reps and weight, carried over by the engine.
  • Rest that starts itself. Tick a set and that exercise’s countdown begins.
  • Plate math per side, so you’re not doing arithmetic between sets.

Plan — the block, and the week

  • A seven-day split you fill with your own templates.
  • Training blocks of 4–8 weeks that build your sets up, peak, then deload. A Pro feature — your first block is free.
  • An honest read on the week’s volume — muscle by muscle. Set counts are free; the MEV/MAV/MRV zones are Pro.

Library — lifts and templates

  • 299 exercises ship tagged and ready. Add your own whenever.
  • Search and filter by muscle group or equipment.
  • Eight templates built in, and yours are edited in a full-screen editor.

Body — measured, not guessed

  • Weight and eight tape sites become body fat, lean mass, BMI and TDEE.
  • Goals that pace themselves: on pace, behind, or done.
  • Correct your height today and every past figure recalculates.

History — what you actually did

  • Eight weeks of tonnage, and volume by muscle group.
  • Per-lift trends — estimated 1RM or heaviest set.
  • Edit any past session. Volume and PRs recalculate on save.

The progression engine

Four ways to be told
to add weight.

Pick one per exercise, or set a default for everything. Two read your effort and are part of Pro; two are plain rules and free.

Auto Progression Engine · Pro

Each set builds on the same set last week: the RIR target steps down, a rep goes on, and the weight stays within reach of last week's. The default on Pro.

RPE autoregulated · Pro

Your hardest set's RPE steers it — easy adds load, grinding backs off.

Double progression

Fill the rep range, then the weight goes up. The default on Free.

Linear

Add weight every clean session.

There's also None — engine off, nothing changes on its own. 5 kg on lower-body barbell work, 2.5 kg on everything else — and every target it works out lands on a weight you can actually load. While Pro is locked, a lift set to an autoregulated style simply runs as double progression; its setting is kept, so unlocking switches it straight back.


Training blocks

The block adds
the sets for you.

Pick a length and the muscles you're prioritising. Your sets climb week by week, peak, then drop for a deload. Every time.

  • It won't push you past your limit. Extra sets stop at the weekly maximum for that muscle.
  • Report a rough week and it holds the volume there instead of climbing.
  • Peak week doesn't mean failure on squats, bench or deadlifts — you're training alone.

Weekly volume

Is this week worth
doing at all?

SoleGym reads the week you've planned and places all 12 muscle groups against how much work actually grows them.

Each muscle group's planned sets shown against the range that grows it, with a plain-language zone label.

Every row tells you what to do

Too little, about right, or too much — in words, not just a colour. “Add a set.” “Keep it here.” “Reduce sets or deload.”

Compounds count too

A bench press credits your triceps and front delts, a row credits biceps. A week with no direct glute work can still be well covered by squats and hinges.


Light or dark

Free and Pro

The logger is free.
The coach is one unlock.

SoleGym is free to download, and everything you need to log and keep your training stays free. SoleGym Pro is the coaching layer — a single one-time purchase through Google Play. No subscription, no account, and it works offline.

Free, always

  • Log tab — sets, rest timer, reorder, edit past workouts.
  • Library — 299 exercises, search, filters, your own lifts.
  • Templates and the weekly split.
  • History and Body — tonnage, lift trends, measurements, goals.
  • Backup and import — manual, weekly, or after every session.
  • Double progression, Linear and None styles.

SoleGym Pro

  • The autoregulated engine — RPE autoregulated and the Auto Progression Engine, reading your effort and setting next week's weights and reps.
  • Mesocycles — 4–8-week blocks with a programmed volume wave, a built-in deload and the forecast chart.
  • Volume landmarks — each muscle's weekly sets against its MEV, MAV and MRV zones, with advice.
  • The plan status card — training and deload weeks against your plan.
  • The home-screen widget — today's session and your logged sets.

Your first mesocycle is free. Start a block from Plan and every Pro feature except the widget stays unlocked for its whole length, deload week included. When it ends, Pro locks again until you unlock it — and nothing you logged is ever hidden or removed. The price shows in Google Play in your own currency.


Yours alone

It can't reach
the internet.

Not "we don't sell your data" — the app simply has no way to send it. No account, no sync, no feed, no ads, no analytics. Your phone holds the only copy, and it moves only when you back it up. Even the Pro unlock is handled by the Google Play app on your phone — SoleGym itself still never goes online.


Before you ask

Fair questions.

Do I have to set all this up?

No. Log a freestyle session and nothing else ever has to be configured — the engine still works. A weekly split, a deload, a full block: each one is optional on top.

Is there an iPhone version?

No — SoleGym is Android only, and needs Android 8.0 or newer.

What does Pro cost, and is it a subscription?

It's a single one-time purchase through Google Play — pay once, yours to keep, no subscription and no account. The price shows on the unlock button in your own currency. Your first mesocycle runs with Pro unlocked, free, so you can try the coaching layer before you decide.

I bought SoleGym when it was a paid app. Do I pay again?

No. Everyone who bought SoleGym before it went free is sent a Google Play promo code for Pro. Redeem it in the Play Store app (Payments & subscriptions → Redeem code), then open SoleGym — or tap Settings → SoleGym Pro → Restore purchase if it doesn't pick it up on its own.

Can I get a refund, or move Pro to a new phone?

Refunds go through Google Play under its refund policy; if one is granted, Pro locks the next time you open the app, and a block already in progress runs to its end. On a new phone, install SoleGym, sign in to the same Google account and tap Settings → SoleGym Pro → Restore purchase.

Can I use pounds?

Yes. Switching units changes only what you read; nothing stored moves, and switching back loses nothing.

What if I change phones?

Export a backup and import it on the new phone. It's a single file you can keep anywhere.

Can I fix a session I logged wrong?

Yes — weights, reps and exercises are all editable afterwards, and everything recalculates. You can also exclude a session so it stays in your history but counts toward nothing.

The bar is loaded.

Start the log tonight. Six months from now you won't have to remember any of it.
