Novastra: Advanced Gym Tracker

Kraikus

About this app

Novastra is a gym workout tracker for people who train seriously and don't want to fight an app between sets but also needs engagement and motivation with some gamification elements.

LOG A SET IN TWO TAPS
Weight and reps come prefilled from last time. Tick the set and the rest timer starts on its own. PR marks, estimated 1RM, a stopwatch for planks and cardio, a plate calculator, supersets, and your own notes on every exercise.

IT TELLS YOU WHEN TO ADD WEIGHT
Finish every set at the top of your rep range and Novastra suggests the next jump: 2.5 kg on the bar, 2 kg per dumbbell, 5 lb in pounds. One tap to accept. Progressive overload without doing arithmetic between sets.

COMPLETE PROGRAMS, NOT EMPTY TEMPLATES
Upper/lower, push pull legs, full body in 2 or 3 days, a 5x5 strength plan... a program to start from zero at the gym, three glute and leg programs, 3-day calisthenics and dumbbell training at home. Each one explains WHY it is built that way, day by day, with its sets, reps and rests. Adopt it and your week is laid out. Change any of it: it's yours.

907 EXERCISES WITH REAL TECHNIQUE
Every exercise carries a technique paragraph, and the 189 main lifts are written by hand, not generated: the bench angle, what you should feel, the classic mistake. 880 come with an animation, so you can see the movement before you do it. Filter the exercise library by muscle and by the equipment you actually have.

THE MUSCLE MAP
Every exercise lights the main muscle in red and the assisting ones in cyan on a real anatomical drawing. Then your whole week, muscle by muscle, so you can see what you are neglecting.

YOUR PROGRESS, PROPERLY
Weekly volume, sets per muscle group, the balance between them, personal records, a consistency map and your streak. A chart per exercise and per body measurement. No fluff, no invented scores.

YOUR ACCOUNT, YOUR HISTORY
Sign in with Google and your training log lives in your account. Change phones, sign in, and it is all there. You can train from a browser too, at novastra.fit, with the same account. Export everything to CSV or JSON whenever you like, and send your sessions to Health Connect so they show up in Google Fit or Samsung Health.

A COMMUNITY WITHOUT THE POSING
Ranks, collective challenges every two weeks and a league among the people you follow. You decide what is visible about you, including nothing at all. Share your own programs for other people to adopt, and browse theirs.

WHAT THERE ISN'T
No ads. No analytics. No tracking identifiers. Your data is not for sale. The app never asks for your contacts, your location or your gallery.

Whether you train for hypertrophy or strength, at the gym or at home, Novastra keeps the plan and the log in one place. Free, for ages 16 and up.
