Stop overthinking your workout. Start lifting.

Lift5x5 is the no-nonsense gym workout tracker for the StrongLifts-style 5x5 barbell strength training program - the same method that's been building muscle and strength since the 1960s.

The 5x5 weightlifting program is simple and proven:

5 compound exercises total
3 strength training workouts per week
45 minutes per session

No confusion. No complicated routines. Just progressive overload with compound barbell movements that build real strength.

5x5 is the foundation program recommended by strength coaches worldwide. It focuses on the exercises that matter most: squat, bench press, deadlift, overhead press, and barbell row.

FREE TO TRAIN

The full 5x5 program is free - every exercise, automatic progression, deloads, and history, with no ads in your way. Optional Pro adds a coach that forecasts your lifts and flags plateaus, but the core program never asks for a cent.
Just you and the barbell.

Ratings and reviews

I really like the simplicity of the app. The info that you need before a workout is right there on the home screen. It also tells you which plates to use for each lift, so you don't have to do the math. The only thing missing for me (to give it 5 stars) is a calendar view in the workout history. Edit: woah that was fast. thanks for the update. 5 stars well deserved

It made another 5x5 app obsolete immediately. my friends who couldn't afford a training assistant app needed something like this 😺. It's perfect. Features things that the paid version of the *other* app had for free. I'll buy in a month if improvements continue.

Looking forward to trying this out. Came from a decade long hiatus after using the competitor's app and losing what I paid for. Only question is does this have warm ups on it as well or just working weight? Edit: love the fast response, can't wait to get started back!
