BulkForged
You should never have to guess what to lift next.
BulkForged reads every set you complete and sets your next target — more reps until you hit the top of your range, then more weight. It shows you why each target moved, and any target is yours to change.
Switching from Hevy or Strong? Import your history and keep the workouts, routines and weights you have earned.
A coach that shows its work
BulkForged tells you what it changed and why, in plain words. Any target is yours to change.
See why every target moved
Every change is written down: what moved, by how much, and the workout that earned it. When a target holds, it says that too.
Your call, always
Think a target is off? Change the weight, the reps or the rep range on any exercise. The app carries on from your number.
Progressive overload, automatic
The app reads every completed set and moves your target itself. No manual math, no plateauing because you forgot to push.
Built around your goal
Build muscle, get stronger, lose weight, improve endurance, or general fitness. Your goal sets how hard the app pushes and what advice you get.
Recovery you can see
A muscle heat map shows what's fatigued and what's ready, so you know when to push a muscle and when to leave it alone.
Nutrition ranges
Calorie and protein ranges that follow your training day. No meal logging.
Stays out of your way
Open it, see your next set, log it, put the phone down.
Your history moves with you
Coming from Hevy or Strong? Import the export file and your past workouts, routines, schedule and starting weights come along. Sign in on a new phone and it is all there.
