Hello

For a long time I have used google drive sheets in order to keep track of gym progress because it has columns and I can dedicate columns, colors, rows, etc for specific gym movements each week so I can keep track of progress, progressive overload correctly, and have a history of progress. ( Example: days | weight | push | bench::weight*sets/reps | etc)

I have been using libreofffice (and syncthing to back up to home server so I can later view on pc) to do this lately but the mobile app is … Hard to use for me. I also use obsidian to take general notes and lists but it is missing the dedicated columns I would like.

Is there other self hosted similar options for what I’m looking for specifically for mobile to PC backup.

    I think you should explore “No code database” like Teable.

      You could, in Teable, have a form view. In this view you could add your exercises one by one to add to the table.

            Just set it up and tested it out a little and this is what I’m going to use it fits best for me right now thanks for showing this. It looks like I can also import the previous excel sheets I have.

            Huge thanks

            Edit: meant to say mobile via browser works great too

      Edit: ok the mobile experience is 100x better thanks I think I will use this and setup next cloud or another solution for PC use aswell and that should solve my ‘issue’ I think

    A few options - What about Tables in NextCloud? Also I’m sure that there are some self hosted exercise trackers out there. Maybe FitTrackee

      It’s quite limited. I would recommend Grist instead.

      I’ve looked into multiple fitness trackers like this one but they focus more on ’ activities’ like running distance, hiking area etc not how many sets of bench you did at what weight (weight lifting exercises) Maybe I just looked at the wrong ones but FitTrackee looks to not support that.

            I was going to add this to the wishlist for Yunohost.org - It could be a useful addition - I find that Yunohost makes self hosting pretty straightforward.

            Can you use their instance to start with?

        ah yeah. Its worth having a look at a few and maybe starting a discussion about adding those kind of features. I know nothing about weightlifting but it sounds like your requirements would be common ones.

        What other Apps have you looked at?
