Introducing Physique

May 17, 2012

We’re excited to launch Physique today. It’s the easiest and fastest way to track your weight lifting workouts on your iPhone. When we set out to build Physique, we focused on a few key goals that we felt were important for a great workout tracking app:

Make it really fast to use while you’re working out: We wanted to minimize the time needed to enter your weights and reps. We’re happy to say that with Physique you can track a full workout with as little as two taps per set. Physique not only remembers your weights from your previous workouts, it analyzes them and can bump up the target weight when you’re ready. You can also enter your results quickly using the customized keyboard, which lets you adjust your weight up or down with just a tap. We put a lot of thought into making Physique simple to use while you work out.

Simplify weight training: We try to make tasks easier whenever possible. One example of this is the integrated barbell calculator that shows a visual breakdown of which plates to use for any given weight so you don’t have to do the math. Another time-saving feature is the the warm-up sets option that can calculate the best weights to use in preparation for your heavier work sets.

Make it easy to keep an accurate history of your progress: We think that keeping track of your workout progress is really important for getting results. During every set, Physique displays your previous workout’s results at the bottom of the screen so you can strive to lift more weight or do more reps than before. Physique makes it a breeze to review your workout history, track your personal records, and see useful summary stats.

We hope you like using Physique as much as we enjoy building it. It’s available now on the App Store. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook so we can keep you up-to-date with our announcements. There’s a lot more to come, and we’re excited to show you what we have planned.
