The coach keeps working after you rack the weights.

Your coach reads your workouts, tells you what happened, and proposes what to change. You approve each change in one tap, or skip it. Nothing changes in your routine without you.

Part of Premium: $17.99 a month or $99.99 a year, billed through the App Store. Cancel anytime.

After every workout

Coach Debrief

A short read of the session: what moved since last time, what stalled, and one or two changes to approve. It streams in while you catch your breath.

Every week

Coach moves

The coach reads your last 28 days and proposes specific moves: swap a stalled lift, add a set, take a deload week. Make the change, or not this week.

  • Unlimited routines, ready-made or your own.

Built by someone who actually trains.

I’m Greg, a software engineer and lifter. I built Ellim because I was tired of juggling four apps and paying for features I didn’t need. It is the training app I wished existed.

Questions

Four quick ones. See all questions

Is Ellim free to use?

Yes, Ellim is free to use. Workout tracking, the 3,500+ exercise library, unlimited routines, custom routine builder, AI routine import from a photo or text, manual meal logging with food search and barcode scanning, daily nutrition view, one-tap water logging, weigh-ins and body measurements with Apple Health sync, the weekly check-in, and workout progress history are all free forever — no ads, no credit card required. Premium ($17.99/mo or $99.99/yr) adds Smart Session (AI workout generation), AI Routine Coach (full multi-day programs), a Coach Debrief after every workout, weekly Coach moves that adapt your routine, AI meal detection from photos, a weekly and monthly nutrition dashboard, the 7-day water chart, your weight trend line with a pace verdict on your goal, and progressive overload insights.

How does the AI personal coach work?

Three ways. Describe a workout in plain English — for example, "upper body strength workout" or "30-minute HIIT session" — and Smart Session builds it in seconds from the 3,500+ exercise library. After every workout you log, the Coach Debrief reads the session, tells you what moved since last time, and suggests one or two changes you can approve in a tap. And each week, Coach moves reads your last 28 days and proposes specific changes to your routine — swap a stalled lift, add a set, take a deload week — which you accept or skip one at a time. Nothing changes without your approval. The coach is a premium feature.

Does Ellim track meals and nutrition?

Yes, Ellim includes a dedicated Meal tab for tracking your nutrition. You can search for foods or scan barcodes to add items instantly — both are free. AI-powered food recognition from photos, which identifies meals and breaks down macros automatically, is a premium feature.

What types of exercises does Ellim include?

Ellim includes over 3,500 exercises across multiple categories including weight training, bodyweight exercises, stretching and flexibility routines, and cardio workouts. Each exercise comes with detailed instructions and muscle group tags. It is the largest exercise library among free workout tracker apps.
