@ericwagner How is Gravitus different from apps like Strong or JEFIT?

@bharris Great question! There's some feature overlap but our missions and audiences are different.
Jefit is focused on getting in shape and on those fairly new to strength training (you'll see featured workouts like "Get Rid Of That Muffin Top" and a big emphasis on the instructional exercise content).
Strong is more a replacement for a traditional pen and paper workout journal, or maybe the Notes app on your phone.
Gravitus is a community of strength training athletes—people who like to lift (expect to see workouts from Starting Strength or Wendler 5/3/1 instead of Building Your Beach Body). And we give lifters the tools they need to plan and track their workouts as efficiently as possible. For example, workout templates are specified in standard notation (e.g. 5 x 5 or 90% x 3). Starting a workout is one tap away from the home screen. Camraderie and competition is another big part of what we do. Basically if you like to lift, you'll like Gravitus!
