Never guess your
next set again.
Open the app and it already knows what you should lift today. Every set has a target, so you can see yourself getting stronger week after week. Free, private, and it runs on your iPhone or Android.
Simple training, backed by research, worked out for you.
The number's already there
Open a lift and today's goal is waiting for you, worked out from your last session. If you hit the top of your rep range everywhere last time, it nudges the weight up and resets your reps. If you came up short, it just asks for one more. You show up, it does the thinking.
Reps first, then weight
This is the steady, reliable way to get stronger. Add a rep or two inside your range each week. When you hit the top of the range, add the smallest plate and start climbing again. No fiddly math, no spreadsheet to keep up with.
You'll know the moment you beat it
A set turns green the second you match or beat it from last time. More reps, more weight, a stronger estimated 1-rep max, or more total volume all count. Nothing ever turns red. There's no punishment here, just a clear yes. (Tap a set to replay.)
Every muscle, about twice a week
The built-in Push, Pull, Legs, Upper, Lower split hits each muscle group about twice a week, a frequency the research backs for building muscle. And it's yours to change: rename, add, reorder, or archive any lift. (Tap a day.)
It knows when you're cutting
Losing fat while keeping your muscle is the whole point. Flip on Cut mode and the coaching changes with you. When you're in a deficit, holding your strength counts as a win, not a miss. The pressure to add weight eases off at exactly the right time.
Your whole physique, in one place.
A coach on every set
Logging a set takes seconds. Fix a number, drag to reorder, and lean on a rest timer that keeps counting even when your screen locks. Last time's numbers and today's target sit right next to the set you're entering, so you never do the math in your head.
Trends that stay fast
Every exercise keeps its full history, with clean estimated 1-rep max and volume charts that stay quick even after years of workouts. Watch the line climb and you'll know it's working.
Volume, not pressure
Track your weekly aerobic minutes against a target you set. No streaks, no scores, and no green on purpose. Cardio stays low-key here, and that calm never bleeds into your lifting.
Watch your shape change
Log your weight and measurements each week. Benchmark works out your V-taper (your shoulder-to-waist ratio) and waist numbers, and the Shape Visualizer gently shades a body outline toward the goal you set. It points you in a direction. It never grades you.
The one chart that matters
Your strength, bodyweight, and waist on a single timeline, with a verdict in plain English like "strength holding, waist coming down, you're recomposing." No spin, no shame, just whether the plan is working.
No accounts. No ads. No fake urgency.
Just your numbers, and an honest answer to one question every session: did you beat last time?
Yours, and only yours.
Benchmark has no server, no accounts, and no analytics, and it makes no network calls once it's installed. Every rep, measurement, and note stays in your phone's own storage. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is sold, and nobody sees it but you.
