What is openGym?

openGym is a self-hosted gym and body-weight tracker. Plan routines, log workouts with supersets, warm-ups and cardio, see which muscles are trained, fatigued or detrained, and import from FitNotes, Strong and Hevy. It runs as an installable PWA with passkey login, synced across devices, with no account on someone else's server and no ads.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

  • Imports from FitNotes, Strong and Hevy
  • No ads, subscription or telemetry

Cons: where it falls short

  • You need to self-host it with Docker
  • AGPL-3.0 licence has strict terms for modified versions
