Poor Man's Gym

Real workouts built from the stuff already in your house. No gym required.

Water jugs, a backpack full of books, a sturdy chair, a towel on a smooth floor. Tell the app what you have, and it builds workouts around your own gear, tracks your progress, and makes showing up feel like a game.

What it does

  • Your house is the gym

    Check off what you own, or add your own items with the weight you measured. Then see every exercise a single item makes possible.

  • Workouts made for you

    Pick your time (10 to 60 minutes) and a focus, and get a workout with a warm-up and a cool-down. Or follow a program week by week, or build your own routine.

  • See your progress

    Weigh-ins with a trend chart, body measurements, personal records, weekly volume and a workout calendar, in kilograms and centimetres or pounds and inches.

  • A game worth playing

    Earn XP and level up from Couch Dweller to Household Hercules. Keep your weekly streak, unlock badges and take on three new quests every week.

  • Health Connect, if you want it

    Optionally save your workouts and weigh-ins to Health Connect, and bring in weight from a smart scale. It's off until you turn it on.

  • Safety first

    Step-by-step instructions and a safety note for every exercise. It's general fitness guidance, not medical advice: check with a doctor before you start, and stop if you feel pain.
