An app for those who gotta get in shape. You get it? :D
Gotta builds a strength workout for you and walks you through it from the first set to the last. Home workouts and gym workouts, with dumbbells, a barbell, kettlebells or no equipment at all. Free, and no personal trainer needed. If a machine or an exercise is new to you, there's an exercise library inside with photos and form tips.
HOW IT WORKS
You answer a couple of questions once: your goal, your fitness level, the equipment you have, a special focus. After that Gotta runs on an upper / lower split and hands you a ready workout for today, so your whole body gets worked evenly and the exercises don't get stale. It's a workout plan you never have to write yourself.
A WORKOUT PROGRAM FOR YOUR GOAL
A strength training app that watches muscle balance for you:
- it tailors the plan to your goal: build muscle and gain mass, get stronger, lose weight, or just train;
- it uses only the equipment you actually have, a full gym with machines or a couple of dumbbells and bands at home;
- it puts the heavy compound lifts first, while you're fresh, and leaves isolation for the end;
- it won't let you grind the same things for weeks, forgotten exercises resurface on their own.
TRAIN WITH A FOCUS
Want to build your arms, chest or glutes? Pick up to two focuses: round glutes, wide shoulders, a strong back, flat abs, a bigger chest, big arms and more. Gotta adds volume where you want it without zeroing out the rest. Works for men and women, a home workout for women is the same focuses with a different accent.
A TIMER THAT STAYS OUT OF THE WAY
A rest timer starts between sets. It runs even with the screen locked. There's also a floating bubble on top of the screen that lets you switch to another app without losing sight of your workout. Turn it on in the settings.
HISTORY AND PROGRESS
The history is simple: your finished workouts, nothing else. No body weight charts, no lifted volume, no stats per muscle group. There is a weekly chart, without nagging or walls of numbers. Add your weight in the settings and Gotta will estimate the calories you burned.
OFFLINE, NO SUBSCRIPTIONS, FREE
- Works offline. A basement gym is no problem.
- No online fitness subscription. No ads, no paid tiers.
- Syncs workouts and settings with your Google account so you don't lose your history when you switch phones. The data is yours alone. We store nothing.
- Simple design, big buttons, only what you need.
- No motivational nagging like "you haven't trained in 2 days". If you gotta, you'll train anyway.
WHO IT'S FOR
- You hit the gym or work out at home a couple of times a week.
- You don't want to pay a personal trainer but you want a solid program.
- You're not sure how to use the machines and want some guidance.
- You need a workout plan for building muscle or losing weight and don't want to figure it out yourself.

This is my personal project and I build it on my own. I read every single review, so if something's missing or something bugs you, drop me a line. A lot of it ends up in updates later.
