Cadence
Workout
Tracker

A personal tool, not a client project. I was tracking workouts in a notebook, redrawing a new table every month, impossible to reorganise when I wanted to add exercises or labels. I didn't want a habit tracker or a bloated fitness app, just a simple, minimalist tracker I could shape to my own routine.
Built with Ship Studio (Next.js) in ~30 minutes, and installed on my phone straight from the browser.

1
Built for my routine, not a template

I didn't want a habit tracker or a complex fitness app. Just a place to add my own exercises, like "Day 1 Intensity" = 2 sets, each set 3 exercises (pull-ups, squats, dips…), and track them week by week. The notebook forced me to redraw a table every month; this doesn't.

2
Full flexibility, fully scalable

Every exercise can carry a label I create (muscle training, cardio, plyometrics…). Add, edit and remove anything, with total freedom. This first version stays deliberately simple: I already know my workouts, so no over-engineered personalisation. But the data model is ready to scale for future updates.

Build it, don't hunt for it

With Ship Studio I shipped this Next.js webapp in 30 minutes, and now it lives on my phone (open the link → tap the 3 dots → Install). Instead of searching for the "perfect app" for my case, I just built one. :)
