LiftTrack is a strength training app built for Garmin users. You build workouts in LiftTrack, send them to your Garmin watch, and train with every set, rep, weight and rest timer on your wrist. When you finish, the session comes back to LiftTrack, where your history, personal records and progressions update. You can also track any workout on your phone.
The free plan includes 3 workouts of your own, sending workouts to your Garmin, phone tracking, scheduling and weekly routines, progressions, and your full workout history. Connecting ChatGPT or Claude to read your data is also free.
Premium adds unlimited workouts, Max, the coach inside LiftTrack, programs, creating workouts from a photo or description, and letting ChatGPT or Claude create and edit workouts for you. See plans and prices in the app under Profile > Upgrade to Premium.
LiftTrack workouts run in your watch’s built in Strength activity, so your watch needs Strength workouts. Check Garmin’s compatibility list for your model before you buy Premium for watch training. For help choosing a watch, see the best Garmin for weightlifting.
Once you connect Garmin in Profile > Connections, LiftTrack sends every workout to Garmin Connect when you save it, and again after every edit. There is no separate sync button to find. A green check on a workout’s Garmin button means Garmin Connect has the latest version, and your watch picks it up the next time it syncs with the Garmin Connect app.
On the watch, start the workout from your workouts list and train. When you save it and your watch syncs with Garmin Connect, the session comes back to LiftTrack with your sets, reps and weights. Heart rate, duration and calories stay in Garmin Connect as usual.
Scheduling is optional. It places the workout on your Garmin calendar for that day, but you can start any LiftTrack workout from the watch at any time. See how Garmin sync works.
Yes. You can build and schedule workouts, track them on your phone, and review your history and progress without a Garmin watch or account. Sessions tracked on your phone stay in LiftTrack.
Max, the coach inside LiftTrack, needs Premium. Tap the training load card on the Home tab, or open your active program, and tap Ask Max. See ask Max, your coach in LiftTrack.
LiftTrack also has an official ChatGPT app and Claude connector. Reading your workouts and history is free; creating and editing workouts needs Premium. If ChatGPT can read your data but cannot create workouts, disconnect LiftTrack and connect it again. See how to connect LiftTrack to your AI assistant.
Strength training, made simple. Build, sync, and track your workouts like never before.
