Fitbod or Hevy? An honest comparison for 2026
Two different questions. Fitbod answers "what should I train today?", Hevy answers "what did I train?". Fitbod costs considerably more and has no permanent free tier; Hevy is free and ad-free.
The core difference
Fitbod generates your next workout — based on recovery and the equipment you have. Hevy prescribes nothing; it records what you do and shows the history. If you know your split, you do not need the planning and still pay for it with Fitbod.
When Fitbod is the better pick
If you would rather not decide what today's session is — as a beginner, say, or after a long break. The automatic planning is Fitbod's actual product, and Hevy offers nothing comparable.
When Hevy is the better pick
If you already have your plan. Then Fitbod charges you around US$96 a year for a feature you will not use — while Hevy does the same logging for free, allows unlimited routines and holds the best rating in the field.
And if neither fits?
Both apps above cover one side each. If you want training and nutrition in one app, you otherwise end up with two subscriptions and two histories that know nothing about each other. That is where GymLog AI comes in: sets, meals and an AI coach in one chat, by text, voice or photo. Permanently free tier, data on EU servers, iOS and Android.
