“Welcome to the world of Augmented Reality (AR), which is more powerful now thanks to Apple’s AR support. Meet our virtual trainer and your avatar. With the help of AR, they can appear at your place whenever you need them. Whether you’re planning your workout or working out somewhere, they will come handy. Set the avatar to represent your gender, height and body fat percentage. After you log a workout, all the muscles you trained will appear on your avatar. And the more you train during the week, the less rested muscles you’ll have. The app will show you which muscles are ready for training. Use the virtual trainer, our model, to check how to properly do fitness exercises and to see which muscles you’ll use while exercising.

Personalize your AR experience and interact with the model:
– Change your perspective to watch her/him from any angle. You don’t have to move, unless you want to.
– Resize her/him. They start with a realistic height, but you can increase or decrease it.
– Relocate her/him on the screen.
– Take photos and create videos of the AR—you can even stand or exercise right beside the model.

Gymaholic is the ultimate fitness app. You can use it with or without AR, or with or without an Apple Watch. Either way, the above-mentioned avatar and trainer are there for you on iPhone. The app for Apple Watch gives you the freedom to track your workout without your iPhone, in a way that no other app does. And the iPhone app is the best tool to help keep you on track. Both can effortlessly walk you through your training. It doesn’t matter if you work out in a gym or at home. It integrates with the Health app.

Track any kind of workouts and sets:
– Supersets, tri-sets, giant sets, drop sets, pyramid sets, fail sets
– Bodybuilding, weightlifting, HIIT, cardio, bodyweight training, TRX

We work extra hard to provide you with the best features. We’re proud to say that in the App Store 94% of Gymaholic users have given us 4- or 5-star ratings, from this 80% was 5*. Please find some reviews below:
