Stronk

Free, open-source weightlifting tracker for logging lifts, sets and reps — a private, installable web app and alternative to Hevy and Strong.

Stronk is a free, open-source weightlifting tracker built as an installable web app. It keeps the focus on the essentials of lifting: logging workouts as you train, recording sets, reps and weights for each exercise, and reviewing how your performance changes over weeks and months. Because it is a progressive web app, you can install it straight from the browser onto your phone or desktop, and it behaves like a native app once on your home screen.

Privacy is built into how Stronk works. There are no accounts to create, no subscriptions to pay, and no third-party tracking — every workout you log is stored locally on your own device. The project is committed to staying free, and cloud backup for cross-device sync is under development for users who want an extra layer of safety for their training history.

Stronk is a good fit for lifters and home-gym users who find commercial training apps bloated or paywalled. If you want a straightforward, private way to track your lifting — without the ads, upsells, or data harvesting of apps like Hevy, Strong, or MyFitnessPal — Stronk is worth a look. The source code is available on GitHub under the GPL-2.0 license, and the project welcomes feature requests and pull requests.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Stronk?

Stronk is a free, open-source weightlifting tracker built as an installable web app. It lets you log workouts, record sets, reps and weights, and track your lifting progress over time — with all data stored privately on your own device. It's a lightweight alternative to apps like Hevy and Strong.

Is Stronk really free?

Yes. Stronk is completely free — no subscriptions, no ads, no in-app purchases. The project's README states it is free and always will be. The source code is available on GitHub under the GPL-2.0 license.

Can I install Stronk on my phone?

Yes. Stronk is a progressive web app (PWA), so you can install it directly from your browser to your phone's home screen — no app store required. It can also be installed on desktop, where it behaves like a native app.

Where does Stronk store my workout data?

All workouts are saved locally on your own device. No account is needed and your training data never leaves your phone or computer. Keep in mind that if you lose your device, your data goes with it — remote backup and cross-device sync are under development.

Can I self-host Stronk?

Yes. Stronk is open source (GPL-2.0), so you can run the web app yourself from your own server or even locally. Since workouts are stored on the device rather than in the cloud, a self-hosted copy keeps everything under your control.
