Lightweight — Minimalist Workout Tracker

The workout tracker that gets out of your way.

What it does

Lightweight is a workout tracker for people who actually lift. No streaks. No badges. No social feed. No "level up your fitness journey" nonsense.

Offline-first, works in any gym Anonymous by default, optional Apple backup Built around progressive overload Just pump some iron.

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
