What is LiftSync?

LiftSync eliminates phone distractions during gym workouts by putting your complete training plan on your Garmin watch. Build detailed workout routines on the web app, sync them to your wrist, and train entirely hands-free.

Key Features:

  • Training Plan Builder: Drag-and-drop interface with 11,000+ exercises from ExerciseDB database
  • Seamless Garmin Sync: Download plans to 98+ compatible Garmin devices (Fenix, Venu, Forerunner, Instinct series)
  • Hands-Free Workout Execution: View exercises, log sets/reps/weight, track rest times—all on your watch
  • Heart Rate Intelligence: Real-time HR monitoring during every set to track cardiovascular adaptation
  • Automatic Sync: Workout data uploads automatically when you reconnect to WiFi
  • Offline-First: Complete workouts without your phone; data syncs later
  • Progress Tracking: Visual charts, personal records, volume progression over time
  • Edge-Driven Architecture: Ultra-compact data format (<50KB on watch) for lightning-fast sync

How It Works:

  1. Build your training plan on the web (Push/Pull/Legs, Upper/Lower, etc.)
  2. Sync to your Garmin watch via API token
  3. Start workout on your watch—see exercise, target sets, suggested weight
  4. Log reps/weight with optimized touch targets (works with sweaty fingers!)
  5. Automatic rest timer with visual progress arc
  6. Finish workout—data uploads automatically to track progress

Pricing:

  • 7-Day Free Trial: Full feature access
  • Subscription: €4.99/month via Stripe
  • No free tier: Direct purchase or no access

Perfect for:

  • Serious lifters who track every set
  • Time-constrained professionals (45-min lunch workouts)
  • Tech-forward athletes maximizing their Garmin investment
  • Anyone tired of phone-distractions at the gym

Technical Highlights:

  • Memory-optimized: <50KB footprint vs 200MB+ phone apps
  • 99.9% uptime SLA
  • TLS 1.3 encryption
  • GDPR compliant with data export
  • Supports devices from Instinct 2S (32KB memory) to Venu X1 (premium AMOLED)

Platforms: Web app + Garmin Connect IQ app Built by a solo developer who believes in fair pricing and zero-distraction training. Your focus belongs on the weights, not your phone.
