About

Built by one person who lifts.

Top Set Training apps are developed by Gregory McInnes, PhD. Greg holds a PhD in Biomedical Informatics from Stanford University and is dedicated to using technology to optimize health and fitness.

Why these apps exist

The App Store has plenty of lifting apps. Most of them are either bloated with features nobody asked for, or built by someone who doesn't actually train. The Top Set Training apps are an attempt to do the opposite: each one does a single thing, tries to do it well, and is built by someone who uses it in the gym a few times a week.

What's in the family

Top Set Training — one lifting app that runs 19 proven barbell programs (Stronglifts, 5/3/1, nSuns, the SBS 20-week, and others). Switch between them without leaving your training maxes or workout history behind.
Top Set Calculator — five lifting calculators (1RM, RPE, plate loader, training max, Strength Scores) in one app.
Top Set Timer — an interval timer that uses Live Activities to stay on your lock screen.
Top Set Form Check — AI analysis that grades your working sets from a few sampled frames. Launching soon.
