That "just one more rep than last time" - captured every time.

Muscle growth only happens when you consistently beat your previous weights and reps (progressive overload). BTB Workout Log shows your last session's numbers the moment you pick an exercise, and automatically tallies your weekly sets by muscle group. No ads, fully offline, free to start - so you never lose track of where you left off.
