Apple Watch
Start on your iPhone, then follow along on your wrist: the weight and reps for each set, live heart rate, and your rest countdown after you tap Done.
Strength training for iPhone and Apple Watch
Measured helps you find the right program for your goals and equipment, then gives you the exercises, the weights and the reps for every set. You do the work, rate your effort once per exercise, and Measured handles what comes next.
Free to download. Eligible new subscribers get 14 days free, then $89.99 a year or $14.99 a month.
The difference
Most workout apps hand you an empty log and wait for you to type. Measured knows what it asked you to do, so it keeps the record for you. It only asks for the one thing it can't know.
The usual way
Tuesday, push
Bench press
135 × 8
135 × 8
135 × 7 (add 5 next time?)
Incline DB press
45s × 10 … or was it 50s last week
40s × 12
Every set, every weight, every rep, typed between sets. And it's still up to you to work out what next week should be.
With Measured
One question after each exercise, with the phase's target marked (often about two left). The sets, reps and weight are already recorded. If a set went differently, fix the number in a tap.
How it works
Setup asks a few questions and suggests a program that fits. After that, every workout runs the same way.
Your program knows what's next, so today's session is waiting when you open the app. Every set shows the exercise, the weight and the reps. Do it, tap Complete Set, and the rest timer starts on its own.
After the last set of each exercise, tap how many reps you had left. One tap, nothing to type.
Measured uses what you lifted and what you had left to set your next weights and reps. Each week builds on the last.
Gym, home or bodyweight
Tell Measured where you are. You keep the same session and the same place in your program, and it swaps in versions of each lift that fit the equipment you have.
Gym
Home
Bodyweight
Set up your home equipment once. Switch location from Today before you start, or mid-workout if your plans change.
Your schedule, not the calendar's
Miss a day and nothing is lost. The session you missed is next when you come back, and your progress picks up where you left it.
Weekday Warrior and The Weekender are written around set days, and a missed session waits there too.
Squat Day didn't disappear on Tuesday. It moved to the front of the line.
Real programs
Week after week, you build on what came before. Every program runs in phases with a purpose, the same core lifts come back each week, and the prescription changes as the phase does.
Each one has a start, a middle and an end, so every session builds on the last instead of starting over.
Within each phase the weight climbs as you earn it, and what you earned carries into the next. Prescriptions as written; your weights are your own.
New to lifting
Learn the core lifts, three short sessions a week, and build the habit everything else sits on.
At the gym, with a barbell
Barbell bench, squat and deadlift for strength, with dumbbell work to build muscle around them.
Short on time
Supersets and short rest, so the whole session, warm-up and cool-down included, takes about 30 minutes.
Not sure which? Setup asks about your experience, goal, days, time and equipment, and suggests one.
Built for the gym floor
Everything in a workout is designed so you look at your phone for a second and get back to the bar.
Start on your iPhone, then follow along on your wrist: the weight and reps for each set, live heart rate, and your rest countdown after you tap Done.
Finish a set and the countdown is already running. It stays on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island with your next set, so you don't have to unlock your phone.
Why it exists
“The plan worked. The admin did not.”
“I was shuffling between the program PDF, a timer, and a log, forgetting what weight I had used last time, losing track of all of it.” So Scott built the app he wanted to train from: one screen, buttons that worked, timers that started on their own. That is Measured.

No. Measured shows the exercise, the weight and the reps for every set, and records them when you tap Complete Set. After the last set of each exercise it asks how many reps you had left, which is one tap. If a set went differently, you can correct the reps or the weight before or after you log it.
During setup you choose "Start me light" or enter weights you already know. After that, each exercise works within a rep range. When you reach the top of the range with reps to spare, the weight goes up a step and the reps start again at the bottom. If it was harder than planned, Measured holds. Weights match your equipment: your own dumbbells at home, 5 lb steps on a barbell.
Yes. Tell Measured what you have at home (dumbbells, a bench, bands, a pull-up bar, a barbell, a kettlebell) and switch to Home before a session. It keeps your program and swaps in versions of each lift that fit your equipment, labeling every swap. With no equipment it uses bodyweight or band versions. Bodyweight Strength is a full program built for no gym at all.
Nothing is lost. Your program is a sequence of sessions, so the one you missed is still next when you come back, and your weeks and phases move forward as you complete sessions. You can also skip a session on purpose. Weekday Warrior and The Weekender are written around set days of the week, and a missed session waits for you there too.
Yes. Fundamentals is an 8-week program for people new to lifting, with light weights, long rest and a focus on form. Every exercise has written cues, most have a short demonstration video, and you can start light and let the weights rise as you go.
No. Everything works on iPhone. With an Apple Watch, you start the workout on your iPhone and follow it from your wrist: the weight and reps for each set, a Done button, your rest countdown and live heart rate. The effort rating stays on the phone.
Measured is free to download. A subscription is $14.99 a month or $89.99 a year, and eligible new subscribers start with a 14-day free trial. Apple handles billing, and you can cancel anytime in your App Store subscriptions. Without a subscription you get one free sample workout and the Build a workout tool.
No. There is no sign-up, no email and no password. Your training history lives on your iPhone and syncs through your own private iCloud. Deleting the app doesn't delete that iCloud copy: reinstall and your history comes back.
