Exercises
While Plates is primarily built as a strength training workout app, we still support every kind of exercise that you can perform in the gym, this includes cardio, weight training, calisthenics, and more.
250+ Built-In Exercises
Plates comes with over 250 exercises built-in. You will find all of the most common exercises here such as bench press, bicep curls, stairmaster, etc. Each exercise specifies what primary and secondary muscles they target.
Custom Exercises
We are well aware that there are infinite variations of exercises you can perform, and while we do contain all of the most common exercises, there will always be some piece of equipment or a movement we didn’t think of. That’s why we made it super simple to create custom exercises in Plates. All you have to do is open the exercise list and tap the plus (“+”) icon in the top-right corner. Custom exercises behave exactly the same way as built-in exercises.
