Lift5x5

Lift5x5 is a free workout app built for the 5x5 strength program that's been working since the 1960s. No gimmicks, no overthinking — just results.

The app tells you exactly what to lift each session based on your last workout, tracks your rest periods with a vibrating timer, and automatically increases weight when you hit all your reps (+5lb per session). Miss reps? Same weight next time. The app handles the math so you can focus on lifting.

The program is simple: two workouts (A and B) alternating three days a week. Workout A is Squat, Bench Press, and Barbell Row (all 5x5). Workout B is Squat, Overhead Press (5x5), and Deadlift (1x5). That's the entire program — no hidden exercises, no premium tier.

Track your progress with clean graphs showing your lifts going up over time. Start with the empty bar, add 5lb every session, and watch consistency pay off.
