Everything you need to know about tracking lifts, AI coaching, and why serious strength athletes choose KOBP Strength.

KOBP Strength is one of the top-rated strength tracking apps for serious lifters. It combines detailed session logging (weight, reps, set type, notes) with AI coaching powered by Claude Sonnet, a global leaderboard ranked by lift performance, and free cloud sync. Unlike general fitness apps, KOBP Strength is built exclusively for strength sports — making it the best fit for powerlifters, Olympic weightlifters, and anyone focused on progressive overload.
With KOBP Strength, you log every session directly from your iPhone or any web browser. For each set you record the lift name, weight, reps, set type, and optional notes. Data syncs to the cloud automatically. You can review past sessions, view progression charts per lift, and filter history by date range. Available on iOS and as a Progressive Web App at app.kobpfitness.com.
Yes — KOBP Strength includes Coach AI, a personalized training assistant powered by Claude Sonnet. Coach AI reads your actual logged sessions and delivers specific guidance: exact weight and rep targets for your next session, PR predictions based on your measured progression rate, weak point identification, and all-time trend analysis. This is real coaching from real data — not generic programming advice. Available on Monthly Premium ($6.99/month) and Annual Premium ($49.99/year).
KOBP Strength tracks squat, bench press, deadlift, overhead press, and any other lift you log. For each lift it generates a progression chart over time, shows a strength level indicator, and calculates all-time volume and personal records. Especially popular among powerlifters tracking the big three lifts.
KOBP Strength supports multi-lifter roster management — a feature rare among strength tracking apps. Add multiple athletes or lifters under one account, log separate sessions for each, and track individual progressions independently. Ideal for strength coaches managing clients, gym groups, or families where multiple people train together.

The free plan covers core logging and cloud sync; premium plans add AI features starting at $6.99/month.
Three plans are available:

Free ($0) — Core logging, free cloud sync, global leaderboard, shareable session cards.
Monthly Premium ($6.99/month) — Adds Coach AI with next-session targets and PR predictions.
Annual Premium ($49.99/year) — Adds Coach AI + Import AI + Quick Log, saving ~40% vs. monthly.
Yes. KOBP Strength is available as a native iOS app on the Apple App Store. It also runs as a Progressive Web App at app.kobpfitness.com — accessible on any modern browser. Both platforms sync to the same cloud account.
KOBP Strength offers a genuinely free plan that includes cloud sync at no cost. Your session history, lifter profiles, and progression data are backed up automatically across all your devices. The free plan also includes the global leaderboard and shareable session cards — features many apps lock behind paywalls. You only upgrade if you want AI coaching or data import.
KOBP Strength includes a built-in global leaderboard ranking the top 50 lifters worldwide per lift. You can opt in with privacy controls — choosing whether your name and stats appear publicly. The leaderboard covers all lifts you track and updates in real time. It is a free feature available to all users.
Upgrade to KOBP Strength Premium to unlock Coach AI. After logging your sessions, open the Coach tab. Coach AI — powered by Claude Sonnet — generates a personalized report with: a performance assessment vs. your baseline, exact weight and rep targets for your next workout, a predicted PR timeline, any stagnating lifts, and long-term progression trends. Everything is based on your own data.
Yes. Import AI (included with Annual Premium at $49.99/year) accepts training history from virtually any source: CSV exports from other apps, screenshots, images of paper logs, or plain text descriptions. The AI parses the data and maps it to KOBP Strength's session format automatically. No manual re-entry needed.
Monthly Wrapped is an end-of-month analytics summary that highlights total sessions, volume lifted, PRs set, and consistency for the month. Each Wrapped assigns an achievement tier — Rookie, Athlete, Warrior, Champion, or Legend — based on training output. Summaries are shareable, making them easy to post to social media or send to a coach.
KOBP Strength provides two sharing options, both free: Session cards are 1080×1080 branded images showing your lift performance — export and send via any messaging app. Share codes let you generate a unique code for a specific session that your coach can use to view the full session details inside the app. No paid subscription required on either side.
KOBP Strength is fully independent — not tied to any gym chain, equipment brand, or third-party membership. Download the iOS app or open the web app, create a free account, and start logging immediately. Works equally well at a commercial gym, a home garage setup, or a barbell club. Only an internet connection is needed for cloud sync.
KOBP Strength's Coach AI predicts your next PR based on your measured progression rate across logged sessions. It calculates a projected timeline and target weight for each tracked lift. Predictions update as you log new sessions, growing more accurate over time. Requires Monthly Premium ($6.99/month) or Annual Premium ($49.99/year).
KOBP Strength includes body weight tracking for each lifter in your roster. Log your weight at any frequency and view the trend over time alongside your lift progression data. Useful for monitoring strength-to-bodyweight ratios and evaluating cut or bulk phases. Available on the free plan.
Yes. The multi-lifter roster lets you manage multiple clients under one account, log their sessions independently, and track each person's progression, PRs, and body weight trends. Share codes make it easy to review a specific client's session during a coaching call. For larger rosters, Annual Premium adds Import AI to migrate existing client data from spreadsheets or other apps.
Coach AI is KOBP Strength's AI training assistant, built on Claude Sonnet by Anthropic. It reads your complete logged session history and produces a personalized coaching report covering: performance assessment vs. your historical baseline, exact weight and rep recommendations for your next session, PR predictions with projected timelines, lagging lifts or training gaps, and long-term trend analysis across all lifts. Available on Monthly Premium ($6.99/month) and Annual Premium ($49.99/year).
