Lifting heavier weights or doing more reps than last workout is the basis for getting bigger and stronger. 📈

Here are four ways to do that using the StrengthLog app 👇
1. The training log

- Go to the training log,
- Scroll down and select the last similar workout
- Hit "Train again"
- Choose if you want to train an identical workout, or modify weight/reps ImageImage
2. The exercise history

Want to see previous workouts for a specific exercise?

- Start a new workout
- Add an exercise
- Tap the “…” to the right of the exercise name
- Tap History

Here, you will see all previous workouts with that exercise.

Again: copy or modify! ImageImage
3. Break your PR's!

StrengthLog keeps track of your 1RM, 2RM, 3RM, 10RM, 20RM, etc.

When working out, tap the “…” next to the exercise name and then tap Records.

Regularly beat these and you are getting stronger. Image
4. Prefill last workouts weight automatically

Lastly, you can go to settings and opt-in to prefill weights from the last workout.

That way, the weight and reps from last time will appear when you add a new set.

Try to make a small improvement every time! ImageImage

Let's talk about building muscle! 💪

Specifically ...

How FAST can you build muscle? ⏳ Image
TYPICAL muscle gains in training studies lasting 2–3 months are:

Beginners

+5–15% muscle thickness
+10–30% muscle area
+2–3 kg fat-free mass

Trained

+3–10% muscle thickness
+6–20% muscle area
+1–2 kg fat-free mass
You'll grow fastest in the beginning.

Here's a good example of that from a Japanese study.

Young men benched 3 sets x 10 reps, 3 x/week, for five months.

Chest grew 43%
Triceps grew 17%
Bench Press 1RM increased 52% Image
