Software for weight training?
 
I started weight training last month and i get lazy about recording and logging how much resistance/reps/sets i do.

Im looking for some good software that helps recommend what i should do in my workouts(ive already got my own plan) or at LEAST allow me to input and save my current progress/weight/reps/sets/resistance for comparison to next week and so on..

i have a lot of respect for you for all the work you put into your iphone themes so i am glad to be able to help you. this is an awesome piece of software, kinda confusing at first but i'm sure you will be able to put it to good use.

I too use My Sport Training and love it. I've tried numerous others, but this was the best by far.

If you are incorporating any type of outdoor cardio, like running, hiking, biking, etc, there is a nice program called rungps that is really useful. I've used it for a month and love it. Here's their site:

Like jamesus and typhoone I also use My Sport Training. You might also look at FitSync. The PPC software on my device has it's share or errors or I would use the service even though there is a monthly cost.

this isn't software, but fitday is a web interface you can keep track of everything. from foods you eat to your workout schedule.

Problem with MySportTraining is it is not finger friendly. When you are in a gym, you don't want to be getting out a tiny stylus and fiddle with small buttons - especially if you have gloves on. The iphone gym apps are brilliant because they have big buttons. I really want to try and design a finger friendly gym app with big buttons for sets reps and exercise picker etc. I installed Microsoft Visual Basic and tried to get to grips with it but it was too complex.

If only there was a WYSIWYG app designer for noobs to develop their own apps.
