Evidence-based hypertrophy · Android

Every set counts.Earn the trophy.

Log your workouts offline, see which muscles get volume, and earn a strength rank, from Bronze to Legend, for each one.

Coming soon to Google PlayAndroid only for now.

Logging workouts is free and never sits behind Pro.

From Bronze to Legend

Every muscle has its own rank, with three steps (I, II and III) per metal: 15 in all. The metal sets the trophy’s colour and trimmings; the step sets its handles.

  1. Bronze
  2. Silver
  3. Gold
  4. Champion
  5. Legend
Logging

One set, one hand, no thinking.

Weight, reps, RIR and set type. The app preloads what you did last time for each exercise, and the rest timer starts by itself.

  • No connection and no account needed: everything is saved on your phone first.
  • If the system kills the app mid-workout, your session is still there.
  • Rest timer with an alert and a countdown in the notification bar.
  • Supersets, tri-sets and circuits; records are announced the moment you hit them.
Strength ranks

A rank per muscle. A trophy per rank.

Your rank comes from what you lift in each exercise, against your bodyweight and sex. You move up a step when your estimated 1RM crosses the next threshold, and you keep it if you gain weight.

  • From Gold I to Legend III, thresholds are the 10th to 90th percentiles of competition powerlifters (van den Hoek et al., 2024).
  • Bronze and Silver are our own call, so beginners move up a step every few weeks.
  • It tells you what is missing: “For Gold III: 85 kg for 6 reps”.

It is a comparison with people who compete in powerlifting, not with the general population, and it does not adjust for age.

How the ranks work →
Body map

Three layers on the same figure.

Weekly volume, symmetry and estimated fatigue, on one map you can tap muscle by muscle.

Volume

Each muscle’s effective sets this week against its minimum and maximum range. The ranges are yours to edit.

Symmetry

Push versus pull, front versus back, upper versus lower body. A proportion guide against your own targets.

FatiguePro

An estimate of how loaded each muscle is from your latest sets, and how long until it drops below medium fatigue. With Pro.

Fatigue and symmetry are heuristic estimates. They do not measure your recovery and do not diagnose anything.

Streak and history

Every week you hit stays on record.

Your streak counts consecutive weeks where you hit the training days you chose. Resting never breaks it. Below it, your history by week: each workout with the muscles it worked in gold, its numbers and its first exercises.

More tools to keep progressing

Starter plan

Tell it your days, equipment and priorities and it builds routines from clear rules, not AI. It explains every decision.

Progressive overload

It suggests adding weight when all your effective sets reach the top of the rep range. A suggestion, never a demand.

Local reminders

Alerts on your phone for your training days, with the routine that is next. Android may delay them by up to an hour.

Optional cloud copy

Sign in with an emailed code or with Google to get everything back on another phone. Without an account, the app works in full.

HyperTrophy Pro

Logging is free. Pro is for seeing more.

Logging workouts is never locked. Pro adds analysis layers that do more of the work for you.

Free

  • Unlimited workout logging
  • Rest timer
  • Catalogue and your own exercises
  • Up to 4 routines
  • Weekly volume map
  • History, 1RM and records
  • Strength ranks
  • The three symmetry balances

Pro

Everything in Free, plus:

  • Estimated fatigue and recovery layer
  • Detailed symmetry: the map by halves and the muscles falling short
  • Unlimited routines

Prices are set by Google Play once the app is published. Routines you already have keep working if you leave Pro.

Honest estimates

Fatigue and symmetry are heuristics, and the app says so. Every suggested number comes with its reason and its sources, and we separate what is evidence from what is our own judgement. We never promise a diagnosis or “measured recovery”.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account?

No. The app works in full without an account and without a connection. The account is optional: it gives you a cloud copy and the social features.

Is it free?

Logging workouts is free and never sits behind Pro. Pro adds the fatigue layer, detailed symmetry and unlimited routines. Prices will be set by Google Play.

When is it out, and on which phones?

It is on its way to Google Play and is Android only. There is no iPhone version and no date for one.

Does it measure my recovery or diagnose anything?

No. Fatigue and symmetry are heuristic estimates: they do not measure your recovery and do not replace a professional.

Who are my ranks compared with?

From Gold to Legend, with percentiles of competition powerlifters of your sex and bodyweight. Bronze and Silver are our own criterion, for beginners. They do not adjust for age: past 35 they are demanding.
