Everything you need to know about RepXP
RepXP is best for people who already train consistently, have or create their own routines, and want faster logging with clear weight and rep targets.
It is especially useful for strength trainees, bodybuilders, powerlifters, and analytical lifters who want progressive overload handled consistently on iPhone or Apple Watch.
Yes. You can generate a starting routine for free with the AI Assisted Routine flow, the built-in exercises come with step-by-step written instructions, and every exercise has one-tap Watch Tutorial and View Form buttons that pull up a video tutorial and form photos. Those results come from external sources and are not curated by RepXP.
What RepXP cannot do is see you lift. It will not assess your form, correct your technique, or diagnose an injury, and progression suggestions are starting points rather than coaching instructions.
Yes, with the AI assistant you already use. The free AI Assisted Routine flow generates a prompt containing your exercise catalog, your equipment, and your training history. You paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI assistant, it coaches you through goal setting, and the plan it returns imports straight back into RepXP as ready-to-use workouts, progression settings included. RepXP flags any conflicts with your current progression and offers to archive your existing routine first.
You can also build workouts by hand, import your history from Strong, Hevy, Bolt, or GymBook, or accept a routine someone shares with you by QR code or link. What RepXP does not ship is a library of named, coach-authored programs or instructor-led video classes.
No. RepXP is available for iPhone and Apple Watch and is not currently available on Android or Wear OS.
RepXP requires iOS 18.0 or later on iPhone. The Apple Watch app requires watchOS 11.0 or later. RepXP is available in English, Bulgarian, German, Spanish, French, and Portuguese (Brazil).
RepXP does not have a social feed, public profiles, followers, or leaderboards. Your workout history remains private.
You can still share a workout or your whole routine directly through a QR code or link. The recipient reviews the plan before saving it, and no account is required.
Yes. You get unlimited workouts, unlimited routines, and unlimited exercises on the free plan: no caps, no session limits. Workout tracking, effort logging with RPE or RIR, rest timers, Apple Watch support, gamification, iCloud sync, and 30 days of history viewing are all included for free. RepXP Pro ($3.99/month or $29.99/year) adds autopilot progression, unlimited history viewing, PR dashboard, muscle analytics, strength standards, training heatmap, and AI training reports (post-workout recaps, weekly, monthly, and yearly). Both plans come with a 1-month free trial of Pro.

No limits on workouts, routines, or exercises. You can create as many as you want and log every single day, completely free, forever.
The only difference between Free and Pro is what you can do with your past data. On the free plan, viewing and editing your workout history and accessing analytics are limited to the last 30 days. Pro removes that limit so you can browse, edit, and analyze your full history. Your workout data is never deleted regardless of plan, and you can always export your complete history on either plan.
RepXP isn't just for lifting. The app supports three exercise categories:
You can also create custom exercises if something's missing from the built-in library.
Short version: build reps, then add weight.
Each progression period (you pick weekly, biweekly, or monthly), the app suggests adding a rep per set. Once you hit the top of your rep range on every set, it bumps the weight up by your chosen increment and drops the reps back down.
Example with a 5-8 rep range and 2.5 kg increments:
You set the rep range, weight increment, and progression period for each exercise individually.
When you miss your target for two progression periods in a row, the app will suggest dropping the weight by about 10% and resetting to the bottom of your rep range. It's a standard way to break through a plateau. Take a step back to build momentum again.
There's also a 14-day cooldown so you won't get deload suggestions back to back. And it's always a suggestion, you decide whether to accept or skip it.
Not blindly, no. The app looks at your numbers, but it doesn't know if you slept four hours, tweaked your shoulder, or had a terrible day. Use common sense:
Think of it as a starting point, not a mandate. The app removes the "what should I do next?" guesswork, but you still know your body better than any algorithm does.
PRs are checked automatically every time you finish a workout. For strength exercises, the app tracks four types: heaviest weight, most reps at a given weight, best estimated one-rep max, and highest session volume. Cardio exercises track longest duration, most calories, and farthest distance.
When you hit a new PR, you'll see it in the workout summary and it shows up in the PR dashboard under your profile.
After a set, exercise, or a whole session (you pick which, or turn it off), RepXP can ask how hard it felt on an RPE or RIR scale using a quick slider. It's free to log and free to view.
Your effort shows up in workout history and reports, and it powers a free Recovery and Stress view that tracks your effort trend and how your recent training load compares to your baseline. On Pro, your logged effort also nudges progression suggestions, holding steady after brutal sessions and pushing a little harder when a lift felt easy.
You earn XP by working out. Every completed workout gives you a base of 50 XP, plus bonus XP for sets completed, workout duration, PRs hit, and badges earned. If you have an active streak going, you get a multiplier on top of that, up to 2x at 60+ days.
There are 100 levels, from Beginner all the way to Transcendent. Each level needs more XP than the last. It's entirely optional. If gamification isn't your thing, the numbers don't affect your training in any way.
Badges are achievements you unlock by hitting milestones. Things like your first workout, logging 100 sessions, maintaining a 30-day streak, or lifting a cumulative 100,000 kg. There are over 40 badges across five rarity tiers from Common to Legendary, and they're awarded automatically. Each one gives you bonus XP.
Streaks are weekly, not daily. As long as you hit your target number of workouts in a week (default is 3), your streak continues. It doesn't matter which days. Miss Monday, make it up on Saturday, and you're still good.
Longer streaks give bigger XP multipliers, from 1.1x at 3 days up to 2x at 60+ days. If you have an off week, the streak resets but you keep your longest streak on record.
Pretty much everything you need mid-workout. Browse your workouts, start a session, log sets and reps, track cardio, skip exercises, and use rest timers, all from your wrist. When you finish, the Watch sends everything back to your phone for XP, PR detection, and history.
You can also hand off a workout between devices. Start on your Watch and finish on your phone, or vice versa.
Pro costs $3.99/month or $29.99/year and includes a 1-month free trial. Here's what you get on top of the free plan:

RepXP Pro generates AI-powered training reports at multiple levels: a post-workout recap after every session, plus weekly, monthly, and yearly reports that break down your volume, consistency, PRs, and trends. The AI runs entirely on your device using Apple Intelligence, so nothing leaves your phone.
Device requirements: On-device AI needs an iPhone 15 Pro or later, or any device with an M-series chip. If your device doesn't support Apple Intelligence, you still get the same reports with all the stats and comparisons; they just use standard templates instead of AI-written summaries.
It's off by default. When you turn it on (in You → Data Management), all your data (workouts, history, progress, settings, everything) gets synced to your iCloud account. From that point on, changes sync automatically across your devices.
You can turn it off at any time and your data stays on the device you're using.
Ask your AI assistant to follow the RepXP workout routine reference. It contains the exact exercise names and CSV format RepXP accepts.
When the assistant gives you the CSV:
Yes. RepXP can import your workout history from:
Head to You → Data Management and pick your previous app. The import walks you through it.
For GymBook, open Settings, scroll down to the Export section, and press Backup. In RepXP, open You → Data Management → Import from GymBook and select that backup. One file imports active and archived workouts, workout history, and supported measurements.
For other apps, look for an "Export" option in the app's settings. You can also export your RepXP data anytime from You → Data Management.
