Description

Takoa is a strength training app built for people who want to show up consistently, train with purpose, and get a little better every week.
No subscriptions. No social feeds. No fluff. Just you, your program, and your progress.
PROGRAMS BUILT TO WORK

Takoa comes loaded with proven training programs — a 3-day strength program, upper/lower splits, a 5-day elite program, and a full dumbbell-only program for when you're travelling. Every program is built around progressive overload, the single most important principle in strength training. Add weight consistently, get stronger consistently. Tap any program to preview every exercise before you commit.
LEARN AS YOU LIFT

Not sure how to do an exercise? Tap the ⓘ on any exercise to see coaching notes covering setup, movement, and the key cues that make it work. Every exercise in the library is covered. When you're ready to explore, browse all 202 exercises by category, equipment, or muscle group from the Programs tab.
SMART WEIGHT SUGGESTIONS

Takoa remembers every weight you've ever lifted and suggests your next session's weight automatically. Complete all your sets? It nudges you up. Struggled? It holds you there. Missed a session? It suggests a small deload. For bodyweight exercises like pull-ups and push-ups, Takoa tracks your reps and suggests when to push for more. No spreadsheets required.
TRACK EVERY REP, EVERY SET

Log sets with a tap. Edit reps and weight inline. The moment you hit a personal record, Takoa calls it out. After every workout you get a full summary — duration, total volume, every PR you hit — and a premium share card you can post anywhere.
BUILT-IN WARM-UP FLOWS

Every workout starts with a structured warm-up matched to your training day. Lower body day gets hip mobility and glute activation. Push day gets scap work and shoulder prep. Each movement has a countdown timer so you're ready to lift when it's time to lift.
TIMED EXERCISES, DONE RIGHT

Exercises like planks, wall sits, and battle ropes use a countdown timer instead of a rep counter. Set your duration, tap to start, and Takoa handles the rest. Your preferred duration is saved for next time.
REST TIMER THAT STAYS OUT OF YOUR WAY

Set your rest period per exercise. Takoa starts the timer the moment you complete a set and alerts you when it's time to go again. Skip it early, extend it — it's your workout.
PROGRESS YOU CAN SEE

Weight-over-time charts for every exercise. Weekly volume tracking. Activity calendar showing your training history. 1RM calculator with four formulas and full training zone breakdown. Bodyweight tracking with trend line.
BUILD YOUR OWN PROGRAM

Not finding what you need? Build a custom program from scratch. Add any day, any exercise, any set and rep scheme. Swap exercises mid-workout without losing your session.
APPLE HEALTH & ICLOUD

Every completed workout syncs to Apple Health as a strength training session with duration and active calories. Your entire training history backs up automatically to iCloud and syncs across all your devices. Delete the app, get a new phone — your data is waiting for you.
PLATE CALCULATOR

Never do the math in your head again. Enter your target weight and Takoa shows you exactly which plates to load on each side of the bar.

Takoa. Built through reps.
