Outmuscle Me

We are what we repeatedly do - challenge yourself.

Outmuscle Me launched on June 4, 2019 with 90 votes, #338 of 2,757 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 7 years on.

What it does

Finding the motivation to keep doing physical exercises is hard, involving friends and competing with them makes it fun and this is what Outmuscle Me is all about. Now it's not uncommon to see a person doing push ups in the office :)

Outmuscle Me transforms your workouts into an adventure — create challenges, track progress, and compete with friends. Available on iOS and Android.

Connect a watch or your phone once. Every run, ride, swim and session lands here on its own — scored, ranked, and counted toward whatever you are chasing. Link Garmin, Fitbit, Wahoo, Suunto, Apple Health or Health Connect — one of them, once. From then on your sessions arrive by themselves, with heart rate, calories and elevation attached. "Three sets of ten push ups." It comes back as activities you can read before a single one is saved, so a misheard number never becomes a personal best. Make an API key in your settings and post activities straight to us. Anything you already log somewhere else can land here without being typed twice. However it arrives, it scores itself. Every movement…from outmuscle.me

On Fitocracy, tracking your workouts earns you…
