What it does

Lift5x5 runs the classic 5x5 strength program for you. It tells you the exact weight to lift every session, adds weight when you succeed, and deloads automatically when you stall - with a rest timer, plate calculator, and progress graphs built in. Free, no ads, iOS + Android.

Track your StrongLifts 5x5 workouts with automatic weight progression, deloads, rest timer, and plate calculator. Full program free on iOS and Android.

StrongLifts-style training in an app that does the thinking for you — the strength program that's been building beginners since the 60s. The whole program is free, including the deload logic other apps charge for. Push/pull/legs. Bro-split. Upper/lower. German Volume Training. You've tried them all. Or rather, you've read about them all and switched programs after two weeks because you found something "better" on Reddit. Here's the truth: It doesn't matter which program you run. What matters is showing up, lifting heavier than last time, and doing it again in two days. 5x5 has worked for 60+ years because it's impossible to overthink. Open the app. See what to lift. Lift it. Go home. Two…from lift5x5.app

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
