Why Modest Gains is different

Your workout. Room for changes.

Build a session from 200 illustrated exercises, or add your own. Track weight and reps, reps alone, sets and effort, or time - and swap, skip, or reorder mid-session. Real days do that.

A food log. No calorie target.

Log meals from a catalogue of over 1,300 foods, with nutrition drawn from USDA FoodData Central, official labels and other published sources. Choose a serving in grams, ounces, or ordinary household portions.

A day in the food diary, showing each item's protein, carbs, fat, and calories

Remember what you did.

Personal bests per exercise, kept quietly, with the date each was first reached. Open any past workout and see exactly what you logged. Nothing is silently rewritten later.

Pay once. Keep it private.

One purchase unlocks the whole app. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads, and nothing held back to unlock later. Family Sharing is supported.

There is no sign-up, because there is no server. Modest Gains makes no network requests during use, and your notebook stays on your iPhone.
