The best Fitbod alternatives
People do not leave Fitbod because they suddenly dislike logging. They leave because the trial ended, or because they want the same kind of help without another subscription. The key question is not "which tracker is nice?" but "what will decide your workout once Fitbod stops doing it for you?"
This page is published by the team behind Mekimeki. Fitbod pricing and free-use details are based on the App Store listing current for this roundup.
The short version
This page is ranked for readers trying to replace Fitbod's planning, not just its logging. Prices appear only where the developer publishes them.
| # | App | Best for | Paid tier |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Boostcamp | Letting a proven program do the deciding | Not stated in the listing |
| 2 | Alpha Progression | Keeping adaptation in the loop | Not stated in the listing |
| 3 | Mekimeki | Building the plan once, then running it free | No paid tier |
| 4 | Hevy | Realising you mostly wanted a good log | Subscription, price not stated |
| 5 | StrengthLog | A generous free log for a plan you already have | Subscription, price not stated |
| 6 | Setgraph | Escaping monthly billing | Subscription or one-time purchase |
How this list was ranked
A lot of Fitbod alternative pages quietly swap a planner for a notebook. That is not a real replacement. Fitbod's value is that it helps answer what should I train today?, so the ranking has to start there.
From there, the alternatives split into three honest types. One gives you a published program. One gives you progression logic. One helps you build the plan once and then follow it well. Those are different answers, but all of them are closer to Fitbod than a bare log with no planning at all.
We are not scoring whether algorithmic training is better than static planning in general. That depends more on the reader than on the app.

Six alternatives to Fitbod
1. Boostcamp
Boostcamp is the cleanest move for someone who still wants the app to tell them what to do. The difference is that the plan comes from a published program instead of a generator. If what you miss is guidance, that usually matters more than whether the guidance came from an algorithm.
Boostcamp, in its own words:
Free to start.
Boostcamp App Store description, US storefront, checked 2026-09-09
Worth knowing: Its listing does not say clearly where the free tier stops, so the long-term free experience is less explicit than this page would like.
2. Alpha Progression
If the part you liked most about Fitbod was that it reacted to your training, Alpha Progression is the closest match in spirit. It is built to keep progression logic involved rather than leaving you with a static checklist. That makes it a much more natural substitute than a plain logbook.
Alpha Progression's listing does not state its free-tier limits, so this page does not claim them.
Worth knowing: Its listing does not publish enough detail about free use or pricing for this page to verify where the trade-off really sits.
3. Mekimeki Mekimeki
Mekimeki takes a different path: you decide the split and progression setup up front, then the app turns that into a multi-week plan with targets, calendar placement and deload weeks built in. It is a better fit for readers who are done paying for day-to-day generation and would rather set direction once, then just train.
Worth knowing: It does not re-plan each session around your recent fatigue the way Fitbod aims to, so readers who want constant adaptation should look harder at Alpha Progression.
4. Hevy
Some people leave Fitbod and discover they are happier once training decisions stop moving around every day. Hevy is a strong landing spot for that kind of user: build the routine you believe in, then log it in an app that stays out of the way.
Hevy, in its own words:
HEVY PRO • Create unlimited routines • Get unlimited access to graph history • Create unlimited custom exercises
Hevy App Store description, US storefront, checked 2026-09-09
Worth knowing: It does not replace the planning side, and its own free tier still limits routines, history access and custom exercises.
5. StrengthLog
StrengthLog makes the most sense if you already know what you are going to run and just want a good place to run it. Its free logging terms are unusually generous, which helps if the whole reason you are leaving Fitbod is subscription fatigue.
StrengthLog, in its own words:
Free Features: • Log an unlimited number of workouts. • No limits on how many workout routines you can create.
If you level up to a premium subscription, you'll gain access to more advanced statistics, our full library of training programs, and our most hardcore features.
StrengthLog App Store description, US storefront, checked 2026-09-09
Worth knowing: Its premium layer still covers the richer programs and deeper stats, so the planning side remains partly paid.
6. Setgraph
Setgraph is for the reader whose main complaint is not Fitbod's style but the repeated charge. The lifetime option changes the billing model in a way the subscription-first apps do not.
Setgraph, in its own words:
Unlock unlimited access with a Pro Membership.
A Lifetime Pro Membership can be purchased once without a subscription. A Pro Membership is also available with a monthly or yearly subscription.
Setgraph App Store description, US storefront, checked 2026-09-09
Worth knowing: It is still a logging and analysis tool, not a day-to-day training planner, so it replaces the bill better than it replaces the product.
Why Fitbod is different from a free-tier app
Fitbod belongs in this family because it solves a different pricing problem. Its listing describes a subscription after the trial. That makes it a paid app with a sampling period, not an ongoing free tracker with limits.
That is not a criticism. Generated training is expensive to build, and subscriptions are a normal way to fund it. But it does mean readers searching for a free Fitbod alternative need a different answer from readers who simply want another good fitness app.
If your goal is to stay free, the practical move is usually this: get the plan from somewhere stable, then log it in something that does not start billing once you are invested.
The verdict
If you still want the app to tell you what to do and you trust proven templates more than generation, choose Boostcamp. If what you want is the closest thing to adaptive guidance, choose Alpha Progression. If you are ready to set the direction once and run the block for free, choose Mekimeki.
If Fitbod is the thing that gets you to train consistently and the subscription feels fair, continuing to pay it can still be the right answer. The best app is not always the cheapest one. It is often the one you actually keep opening.
Questions people ask
Is Fitbod free after the trial?
No. Fitbod offers a trial, not an ongoing free tier. The App Store listing describes an auto-renewing subscription after the trial ends.
What is the best free alternative to Fitbod?
That depends on which part of Fitbod you are replacing. For guided training, Boostcamp or a multi-week planner like Mekimeki. For pure logging after you already know the plan, Hevy or StrengthLog are often the better fit.
What should I keep in mind before leaving Fitbod?
The real question is what you want replacing the planning. If you still want the app to tell you what to do, a plain logbook will feel like a step down. If you are ready to choose the plan once and follow it, the switch usually feels much easier.
Should I switch away from Fitbod at all?
Only if the subscription no longer feels worth what the app is doing for you. If daily planning is the hard part of training for you, leaving Fitbod just to save money can be a false economy.
Head-to-head comparisons
Each app above also has a one-to-one comparison with Mekimeki, with the same quotes and the same verification date:
No subscription, no trial clock
Build templates, turn them into multi-week programs, and track them on a calendar. Free, because Mekimeki has no paid tier.
