Progress Tracking & Analytics

LiftTrack tracks your strength training in three places. The “History” tab logs every completed workout, the “Exercise Detail” screen shows per lift charts and personal records, and the “Analytics” tab plots your weekly training load against targets you set. Together they answer the questions that day to day notes do not: is the work adding up, and is it landing where you want it.

How it works

The data starts on your Garmin watch. After you finish a strength activity, your watch syncs to Garmin Connect and the activity flows into LiftTrack within seconds. From there, three screens turn that raw activity into something you can read.

“Workout History”. The “History” tab opens to a streak calendar at the top showing weekly consistency, then a “Workout History” section with one card per completed workout. Each card lists duration, calories, total weight moved, and a one line summary of the top set per exercise. Tap a card to open the activity detail, where the sets table shows targets next to actuals, color coded green when you exceeded the target and red when you fell short.
“Exercise Detail”. Tap any exercise name (from a workout, the library, or activity detail) to open a tabbed screen. “Info” holds the description and how to. “History” lists every past session for that lift, with sets, weights, and RPE. “Stats” surfaces personal records and four charts: “Volume”, “Intensity”, “Frequency”, and “Reps”. “Volume” and “Frequency” have a W / M / Y period selector; “Intensity” and “Reps” plot every data point.
“Analytics”. The “Analytics” tab has two views. “Training Load” shows working sets for the current week broken down by category (“Push”, “Pull”, and “Legs”), formatted as completed over target (for example, “Push 6 / 10”). Tap a category tile to expand a muscle level breakdown and see the “Target Progress” body heatmap, which colors regions by how close each category is to its weekly target. “Trends” shows totals for “Workouts”, “Duration”, “Volume”, and “Sets” across a chosen time range, each with an arrow comparing to the period before.

What you’ll see in the app

A few specifics that anchor the three screens to actual UI.

The streak calendar at the top of “History” tracks your weekly streak and the count of “Streak Activities” for the month.
The “Stats” tab shows three personal record cards: “Heaviest Weight”, “Best e1RM”, and “Best Session Volume”. Below them, a “Set Records” table lists the heaviest weight you have hit at each rep count.
“Training Load” includes a gear icon next to “Set Target” that opens the weekly target settings.
“Trends” includes a help dialog (“How trends work”) that explains the period over period comparison.

When this helps

Progress tracking is most useful for the patterns you cannot see day to day. If you suspect a lift has stalled, the “Intensity” chart on its “Exercise Detail” page either confirms the plateau or shows the slow climb you missed in the noise. If you want to know whether your weekly volume actually matches your intent, “Training Load” turns the question into a number — sets toward “Push”, “Pull”, and “Legs” relative to the targets you set. If you are coming back from a deload or a busy stretch, the streak calendar and “Trends” give you a quick read on how your last month compares to the one before it.

The categories matter for programming, too. If “Push 12 / 10” but “Pull 4 / 10”, the heatmap makes the imbalance obvious before it shows up as shoulder discomfort. If “Volume” on “Trends” is up but “Workouts” is flat, you know you have been training harder rather than more often.

Setup

A linked Garmin account is required for “History” to populate automatically from your watch. Without one, you can still add and edit activities by hand from the “History” tab. See Garmin watch integration for the connection flow.

Weekly Set Targets default to a recommendation based on four inputs in the “Set Target” sheet: experience level, goal, weekly endurance training, and training days per week. The recommended targets fill in automatically as you tap through the choices, and you can override any of them with the edit toggle and the + / - steppers (range 3 to 30 sets per week, per category).

The streak calendar is gated behind a remote config flag. If you do not see it at the top of “History”, it is not yet enabled for your account.

“Garmin watch integration” — the round trip that populates “History” with what you actually did on the watch.
“SetSync — automatic weight and rep progression” — once your routine reflects what you actually lifted, the charts on “Exercise Detail” tell a cleaner story.
