Starting Strength Official: The Best Strength Training App for Beginners
Starting Strength Official is an iPhone app developed by Shabu Pty Ltd that provides complete, easy-to-follow instructions for performing basic barbell exercises such as the squat, press, deadlift, bench press, and power clean. The app walks you through the famous Starting Strength Novice Program, which shows you how to start, what weight to add, and when to add extra exercises. It is designed for use at the gym with quick access to multiple angle videos and photo instructions of each exercise.
The app's interactive logging tools journal your strength progression, and the warmup and workset calculator shows you exactly how many plates to put on each side of the bar. You can customize your progression for each exercise, add and save additional notes for each workout, and access previous notes easily. With Cloud Sync, you can back up your training log data and restore it across multiple devices. The app also includes helpful hints and tutorials to help you learn and progress safely. Moreover, the app is available in both Metric (kgs) or Imperials (lbs), and you can change it at any time.
