About · Hevy on the desktop
Strength training relies on written records: what weight you lifted, how many reps, how you felt. Hevy is a gym workout tracker built to replace pen and paper with a digital log that grows with your training. The app organizes workout sessions, tracks progress over time, and helps users plan routines before stepping into the gym or starting a home session. Running Hevy on a PC expands what's possible: a larger screen for reviewing training history, a real keyboard for adding exercise notes, and letting you multitask between the app and other windows while planning your next workout cycle.

Hevy turns every training session into trackable data. Whether you're lifting at a commercial gym, training at home, or following a coach's program, the app lets you log exercises, sets, reps, weight, warmups, drop sets, failure sets, and supersets in real time. On desktop, you can review your previous session's numbers before starting a new one, then alternate between the app and your browser or notes without switching devices. As a dedicated gym workout tracker, Hevy organizes your entire training history in one place.
Building and Following Routines
New users typically start by setting up a routine that matches their training split. Hevy supports unlimited routines, so you can create a Monday push, Tuesday pull, and Wednesday legs structure before your first session. When you open the app on PC, the routine list appears clearly on a wider screen: easier to scan and compare routines side by side. During your workout, you follow the predefined routine instead of deciding which exercises to do mid-session, creating consistency week to week. This planning step often determines whether users stick with a program long enough to see measurable progress.
Logging Workouts in Detail
The core action is recording each set as you train. Hevy lets you enter data between reps, so your phone stays accessible without requiring you to wait until the end of the session to write everything down. The app captures the full picture: exercise name, weight, reps completed, whether you hit failure, and notes on how the movement felt. Because the app remembers your last workout's numbers, you can check at a glance whether today's weight or reps represent an improvement. On a PC screen, the input fields spread out more naturally, and a keyboard makes typing longer notes faster than pecking on a mobile screen.
Tracking Progress and Personal Records
Hevy shows training history through several lenses:
- Statistics and graphs organized by muscle group to spot which areas are growing
- One Rep Max estimates based on your logged lifts to track strength gains
- Total volume and best weight per exercise to catch patterns over time
- Personal records highlighted in your history so progress milestones stand out
- Post-workout summaries that display reps, sets, and weight in one glance
These records help users decide when to increase weight, add volume, or adjust a routine because progress has stalled. On desktop, you can open your training history in one window and your routine in another, making it simple to tweak your plan based on weeks of past data.
Exercise Library and Customization
Hevy includes hundreds of exercises with instructional videos so you can confirm proper form before attempting a movement. The library filters by muscle group and equipment type, making it straightforward to swap exercises based on what you have available. If you need something outside the standard library: a specific machine variant, a movement your trainer programmed, or a local equipment quirk: you can create a custom exercise. The wide PC screen makes browsing and selecting exercises less cramped than scrolling through a mobile list, especially when you're setting up a new routine or adding exercises to an existing one.
Free Plan Scope and Paid Features
The free version of Hevy allows you to create up to four workout routines and track unlimited sessions without ads. Paid membership adds features like rating perceived exertion (RPE), accessing superset follow-along prompts, and recording drop set details with multiple weights per drop. The free tier remains functional for basic session logging and progress viewing, so new users can evaluate whether they want to invest before committing to a subscription.

FAQ · Hevy
FAQ
Can I use Hevy without paying for a subscription?
Yes. The free version includes four unlimited routines, the full exercise library with videos, and unlimited session logging. You can track sets, reps, weight, and personal records without upgrading. Paid membership unlocks additional features like RPE input and superset automation, but the free plan handles core workout tracking and progress monitoring.
What happens if I switch from a different gym app to Hevy?
Hevy lets you build routines from scratch and log new workouts starting from your first session. The app does not offer built-in import of data from other fitness trackers, so you'll start fresh tracking from your first workout with Hevy. Over time, as you log sessions consistently, the app builds a complete record of your progress.
How detailed can I make my workout logs?
You can record exercises, sets, reps, weight lifted, warmups, supersets, drop sets, failure sets, and written notes for each exercise. This level of detail means the app captures how you felt during the session, which equipment you used, and whether you hit certain performance targets: information that helps you adjust future workouts.
Does Hevy work offline?
The app description and reviews do not specify offline functionality, so you should check the app details or support documentation for clarity on whether sessions sync in real time or work without an internet connection.
Is the PC version the same as the mobile app?
Hevy runs on PC through an Android emulator, so the layout and controls match the mobile interface. A larger monitor, keyboard input, and letting you keep other windows open alongside the app change the practical experience, making routine planning and progress review more comfortable during longer sessions.
