SteadyGym vs openGym

Draft

openGym offers gym and body-weight tracking with a self-hosting option. This draft will compare two closely related choices through routine setup, progression, offline use, and server maintenance.

What this comparison will cover

  • How do progression rules and target explanations compare?
  • What works offline on each supported platform?
  • How do data export, restore, and upgrades work?

Before choosing

Try the same routine in both apps. Check the current platform support, data export options, and pricing directly with each provider. This page is a draft, not a scored review or a recommendation against either product.

What SteadyGym brings

SteadyGym includes editable routines, plain-text workout entry, set logging, rest timers, scheduling, and progression targets. Its native iOS app can keep data on the phone; the server connects it with the web app. Docker Compose configurations support SQLite and PostgreSQL.
