Turn your split into a reusable routine
Push/pull/legs, upper/lower, or a custom body-part split can become an editable routine. Exercises and order stay under your control, so the app follows the plan you actually use.
Start a spontaneous session or swap an exercise when one workout needs to differ from the template.
More weight is one way to progress
Another repetition with the same dumbbell, or the same repetitions with more in reserve: your history can show these changes alongside load. RPE records how demanding the sets felt.
Give different exercise variations their own names. That lets you compare incline dumbbell presses with earlier sets of the same movement.
How much did you train this week?
Premium brings together your logged sets and training volume over several weeks. That is especially useful when a muscle group appears on more than one training day.
See how extra sets fit into your week. Together with performance and recovery, this helps you adjust your workload. There is no single set count that is optimal for everyone.
Plan your next muscle-building block
Premium uses your goal, experience, training days, equipment, priority muscles and exercise preferences to build a four- to eight-week plan. You can edit the exercises and targets.
Change an exercise that does not suit you or move work away from an overcrowded day. Your completed sessions then show which parts of the block worked well for you.
Quick answers
Bodybuilding tracker FAQ
Can I use my own bodybuilding split?
Yes. Create custom routines and exercise orders or start a spontaneous workout.
Does LiftPal show training volume?
LiftPal organizes logged set and volume data over time. It is planning context, not a measurement of muscle growth.
Does the core bodybuilding log stay free?
Yes. Routines, set logging, rest timers, history, statistics, and PRs stay free; deeper analysis and block tools are Premium.
Can LiftPal draft a hypertrophy plan?
Premium creates a rules-based, editable draft from your settings and data for you to review before adoption.
