No Subscription Gym App

A gym log app that's actually free.No subscription. No catch. No timeline.

A $10/month workout app costs you $120 a year. Over three years of consistent training, that's $360 spent on the privilege of logging sets you already know how to do. Iron Log gives you the same features — analytics, PR tracking, export, ghost sets — for exactly $0, with no point at which that changes.

The real cost of subscription fitness apps

Here's what the popular gym trackers actually charge for full access:

Over five years of training, a $10/month app costs $600. That's a decent pair of lifting shoes, a belt, and a set of wrist wraps — actual equipment that helps you lift more. Instead, it goes to a company so you can view your own training history.

What happens when you cancel a subscription

This is where it gets worse. Cancel Strong Pro and your routine slots drop to three. Cancel Hevy and you lose analytics access. Cancel Fitbod and the app becomes unusable. Your data might technically still exist on their servers, but you can't meaningfully access it without paying again.

Some apps let you export before cancelling — if you know to do it. Others lock export behind the very subscription tier you're trying to leave. Your training history becomes a hostage that costs $10/month to visit.

Iron Log has no subscription to cancel. Your data is always on your device, always exportable, always yours. If you stop using the app, nothing changes — open it in six months and everything is exactly where you left it.

Why Iron Log doesn't charge

Iron Log was built as a personal training tool by an independent developer. There's no VC funding to pay back, no board expecting growth metrics, no sales team justifying their headcount with conversion funnels. The app exists because the developer needed it and other people might too.

There's no "free tier" because there's no paid tier. Every feature is available to every user permanently. No workout limits, no exercise caps, no analytics paywalls, no export gates, no ads. One tier: everything.

Full feature list, free forever

Everything the subscription apps charge for, Iron Log includes from the first launch: session logging with ghost sets and warmup/BFR tagging, real-time PR detection for strength and volume records, volume analytics per muscle group with primary/secondary percentage splits, compound-median strength-to-bodyweight ratio, cardio tracking with duration and distance, a 200+ exercise library with custom exercise creation, TXT/CSV/JSON export, AI coaching prompt generation, full backup and restore, 24 achievement badges across regular, rare, and legendary tiers, session ratings and tags, bodyweight logging, and a wall-clock session timer that stays accurate in the background.

No asterisks. No "available on Pro." No trial that expires.

$0/month.
Every feature. Forever.

No trial, no upgrade nag, no payment screen. Just open and lift.
