Barbell Wiz
Workout tracker for lifters.
Plan smarter. Lift heavier. Build routines with progression, percentages, gear, notes, and scoped workout history.
The difference
What makes Barbell Wiz different?
Most workout apps give you an exercise list and a logbook. Real programs change across blocks and weeks, and the useful comparison is often the same block or session from the last time you ran the routine.
| Basic loggers | Barbell Wiz |
|---|---|
| The routine is a fixed checklist you repeat. | The routine carries progression across blocks and weeks. |
| History shows the last time you did the exercise. | History is scoped to the routine, block, or session you care about. |
| Percentages live in a separate spreadsheet. | Planned set targets, percentages, and gear sit inside the routine. |
| A PR is a number with no context attached. | A PR is measured against comparable work in the same part of training. |

FAQ
Common questions about Barbell Wiz.
Is Barbell Wiz free?
Barbell Wiz is free to start. Some advanced features are optional Pro features, and any store subscription terms are shown before you purchase.
Is Barbell Wiz only for barbell training?
No. The name leans barbell, but the app supports dumbbell, machine, bodyweight, cardio, duration, and distance work too.
Who is Barbell Wiz for?
It is built for lifters who want more structure than a simple logbook. You can start from a well-known program, generate one with the Wiz, or build your own from scratch.
Do I have to use a progression plan?
No. You can create simple routines or quick workouts, but progression plans are there when a routine needs planned changes across sessions or weeks.
What does Pro unlock?
Pro is for advanced planning and review workflows, including Split Review. You can still start with routine building, workout tracking, calculators, and the core training flow before deciding whether Pro is useful for you.
