The things qFIT does that a fitness app usually doesn't. Every one of them is
free, and several work before you have an account.
☑️ One tick is the whole interaction
No reps, no sets, no weights, no timer you have to remember to start. You did
the thing, so you tick the box — and tick it again to undo it. Everything
else in qFIT is optional detail layered on top of that one action, which is
why it survives the weeks when you have no energy for admin.
📓 Detail when you want it, never when you don't
Behind the one tick: log a set at a time, one box per set, up to
eight; record an amount — reps, weight, minutes, miles; write a
note against that day, what hurt and what felt good; and time a stretch with
a hold timer built into the exercise itself. Every category,
target and exercise has its own page with its completion history and streak,
and the streak rules written down so you know what breaks one.
🌳 Three levels, so you choose the detail
Category → Target → Exercise. Log “Stretching” as one
tick on a bad day, or the specific stretch you actually did on a good one.
The same checklist works for somebody tracking “did I move today”
and somebody tracking forty individual exercises.
🧠 A To-Do list that shows its working
Just what's due now, ranked by what's most overdue — and an explainer
that spells out exactly how it decided the order. It is not a black box, and
you can change what it draws on: your profile intensity, or an intensity you
pick just for today.
🔥 A dashboard that answers “am I actually doing this?”
One percentage for how much of today you've met, your current and
best streak, what's still outstanding split by type and priority,
and momentum — this week against last, this month
against last. Not a wall of graphs: the four things that tell you whether
the habit is holding.
💤 It notices what you're avoiding
A neglected muscles card names what you haven't worked
recently — and you set what “recently” means. Most apps only
tell you what you did; the useful half is the part you keep quietly
skipping.
⏮️ Catch Up, for the days you missed
Backfill a day you forgot to log, against the date it actually happened,
then drop straight back onto today. Missing three days doesn't have to mean
losing the record of them — or pretending they happened this morning.
Choose which day a tick lands, so a late-night session goes where you meant
it, and Home flags the days in the last month that look too quiet —
because usually you did the thing and forgot to tick it.
🎲 Two ways out of a rut
Try Something
New shows you only what you've never done — one tap adds
it to your checklist, one tap undoes it — and the checklist's own
randomizer picks something for you when you can't face deciding. Variety is
the thing that keeps a program alive, and neither of these waits for you to
think of an idea.
⭐ Rate an exercise, then filter on it
Score anything for how effective it is and
how much you enjoy it — then filter your checklist down
to exactly that. “Show me the things that work and that I don't hate”
is a real query here, and it's the one that keeps people going.
🩹 Routines for the thing that actually hurts
Ready-made routines you can start from instead of building one —
Morning, Bedtime, Pre-Hike, Post-Gym and the gym splits, but also lower-back
pain, achy knees, sore feet, tight hips, stiff shoulders and a desk-bound
neck. Common
Problems covers 267 everyday complaints, says what is
going on with each, and for 249 of them names the routine
that helps. Every routine doubles as a one-tap filter on your checklist.
🧩 Tell it what hurts; the checklist reshapes itself
Tick the everyday problems that apply to you — a bad knee, poor sleep,
a desk-bound neck — on a list that is completely private:
never shown anywhere, never shared. Then one filter on your
Checklist, Recommended for my problems, pulls every routine
matched to what you picked into a single list, targets and exercises
together. Pick nothing and nothing about qFIT changes.
🚫 Track what you shouldn't be doing
Mark something a penalty and the checkbox changes meaning:
it's now the thing you're trying not to do, and ticking it can take points
off your day. The habit you're breaking gets tracked in the same place as the
ones you're building.
🎚️ Goals without filling in dozens of numbers
Start from Easy Does It, Balanced or Beast Mode, or take
recommended goals for every muscle in a single step. Before anything is
rewritten you see exactly what's about to change and confirm it — and a
bulk save you didn't mean can be undone.
🟣 The whole priority system is one color
Magenta means a goal isn't met yet and its window is
closing. Do those first; everything else can wait. Goals read as
“3 times every 7 days” and the window rolls
— always the last 7 days counting back from today, never a calendar
week that resets on Monday — so starting on a Tuesday doesn't waste a
week. The built-in Weekly, Monthly and Yearly Goals categories are the one
exception: those use real calendar periods.
⚡ Change fifty rows without a Save button
A spreadsheet-style grid where visibility, priority, points and goals are
dropdowns across dozens of rows at once — and there is no Save
button at all: each change writes itself, tells you it saved, and
keeps your value in a red cell if it couldn't. Setting up a real program
stops being an evening of one-at-a-time edits.
🔧 It hides what you can't actually do
Tell qFIT what equipment you have and everything requiring the rest disappears
from your checklist, with one-tap presets for the usual setups. A list full of
exercises you have no cable machine for is a list you stop opening.
🤕 Injured? It stops suggesting what would load it
Tick whatever you're injured or recovering from and every activity that
works that area at all — not just as its main target
— disappears from your suggestions and stops being scored against you.
Deliberately cautious, because showing you something you shouldn't do costs
more than hiding one you could. Untick it when you're better.
🌱 You never face an empty app
A short setup walks you in rather than dropping you on a blank list: apply a
starter set of categories, targets and exercises in one tap, at the
level of muscle detail you want — “Arms” if that's
plenty, “Biceps Brachii” if it isn't — including a
recommended set built to head off the common pains and the muscle loss
nobody notices until it's happened.
✍️ Somebody actually wrote all this
Not generated filler: a first-person account of coming back from pain,
training tips with the numbers cited, a worked example week, real people's
use cases, 131 glossary terms and a hand-written tutorial on
60 of the pages you can open with the ❓ button. The reason
most trackers get abandoned is that nobody explained the thing you were
looking at.
🧮 Seven calculators and a workout timer, no account
BMI, body fat by the tape method, daily calories, macros, one-rep max, running
pace and water intake — all sharing one Your Stats card and recalculating
as you type, imperial or metric. The timer does intervals, rest and stopwatch
with one-tap Tabata, HIIT and EMOM presets, works offline, and holds
your screen awake so the phone doesn't sleep mid-set.
❤️ Heart-rate zones, thirteen ways
Not one formula and a shrug. Thirteen published zone models
— Karvonen, %HRmax, the AHA split, all three Garmin methods, Apple
Watch's zones, Friel run and bike, Coggan, Seiler's polarized three-zone,
Zoladz and Maffetone MAF — on top of nine different
age-to-max-heart-rate equations. Serious methods genuinely disagree with each
other, so qFIT lets you pick the one you actually train by instead of
pretending there's only one answer.
📚 Over 2,400 exercises, and your own on top
A catalog where every single one — not a
well-documented few — carries written how-to steps, our
recommendations and the background detail, filed across
168 muscle targets and 18,000+ muscle
links, plus a muscle guide covering the groups people forget. Nearly every
one names the muscles it works and the other names the movement goes by, so
you'll find it however you learned to call it — and one-tap
How To buttons search YouTube, Google, ChatGPT or Gemini
for that exact movement. Over 1,000 of them need no equipment at
all. Add your own, file them where you think they belong, and
hide instead of delete so you keep the history.
💪 A muscle guide and an organ guide
108 muscles across six regions, each one saying in plain
words where it is, what it actually does and what trains it — and
24 flagged as the ones almost nobody works: the peroneals,
the deep hip rotators, the TFL, the pelvic floor, the muscles inside your
own feet. You can search it by the problem rather than the name,
so “shin splints” and “plantar fascia” both land on
the muscle behind them, and one filter hides everything except the
overlooked ones. Its matched pair, the organ guide, does
the same for 40 organs across eight body systems —
what each one does, and the habits that keep it working — and every
card there opens real Targets and routines in your own account.
📈 Charts that count effort, not just check marks
Activity over time by week, by month and over longer ranges —
switchable between counting check-offs and counting
points, the effort score you set per activity, so twenty
minutes of rehab isn't scored the same as ticking “drank water”.
Break it down by category, target or individual exercise, save any chart as
an image, or download the day-by-day numbers behind it.
⚖️ Weight, waist and body fat on one trend line
Log any of the three against a date — all optional, fill in whichever
you actually track — and watch the line rather than a single number.
Saving the same date twice updates that day instead of stacking up rows.
Private to you, and it touches nothing on your checklist.
🖨️ Your history walks out with you
A clean printable checklist (or save it as a PDF), a CSV of today's list, a
CSV of your whole tracking history for any date range, and
the numbers behind any chart. No export tier, no “contact us to
request your data” — it's a button.
🔔 A reminder you can silence at ten at night
A daily nudge about your checklist by browser push, by email, or both
— and the email goes to whichever address you name,
not wherever you happened to sign up. Quiet Hours hold the
push back overnight, a one-tap 12-hour snooze kills it for
the day, and a test button proves delivery works before you start relying
on it. All of it off until you switch it on: nothing here emails you
because you registered.
🎨 Color-code it so a long list scans in one look
Give every category its own color and a fifty-line checklist stops being a
wall of text. Pick a ready-made scheme, shuffle until something fits, tune
the saturation and brightness, or set one category by hand with a real
color picker — the page repaints as you go and saves nothing
until you press Apply, so there is no wrong move to undo. Dark
mode, text size, page background and which page qFIT opens on sit
alongside it.
🔐 One login for three sites, two-factor by default
Sign in from a browser we don't recognize and qFIT emails a one-time code
— on by default, not buried in a settings page — and a browser
you already trusted on any of our sites is trusted here too. The
same account opens qMEET and PacklistPRO,
so it's one password, not three. Sign Out Everywhere ends
every other session from whichever device you still have, signing in with
Google means we never hold a password for you at all, and you can
deactivate the account yourself without emailing anyone to ask.
