About Simple 5/3/1
Simple 5/3/1 eliminates the hassle of crunching the numbers for your cycles by providing an intuitive tool to do that work for you. Simple 5/3/1 can generate your cycles in lbs or kg, with warm-up sets and popular assistance templates like "Boring But Big" and "First Set Last". It also handles plate loading instructions, joker set creation and personal record tracking. Best of all, Simple 5/3/1 and all of its features are free!
I've made some changes to Simple 5/3/1 here's what's new:
-you can now view a graph of your max progressions.
-you can now generate Sheets and Excel compatible files that map your cycles through multiple waves of 5/3/1, with an appended max-percentage chart, and save them to your drive account or send them as an email attachment.
-you can now export your personal record and max progression data to Sheets and Excel compatible files and save them to your drive account, or send them as an email attachment.
As always, my goal is to provide a free, first rate 5/3/1 experience!

I love this app. It's simple and easy to track along with and I've seen huge results. One issue I have is that the plate loader has stopped working since the last update.

Great app! Is there a setting where it calculates your new training max in case you miss a rep/set?

Any chance of allowing us to the option to change the order of the weeks so as to do Wendler alternatives like 3/5/1? Also the option to skip a deload week. Switching weeks 1,2 and going 6weeks before deload is part of Wendler's 5/3/1 for powerlifting.

Does not follow 5/3/1. So many things wrong. Please dont email me for the details buy the books and support Wendler. I dont know where you built the logic of this app from. But it does not follow 531 at all.

This app really takes the annoying number crunching out of my 5/3/1 experience and I love it. Can't wait for future updates, the planned features sound great.

Easy to use and very handy. Type in your max's and then lift its that easy. Choose what assistance you'd like. Throw in a joker set or first set last whenever you want. Might run 531 again just for the hell of with with bbb assistance. Cheers

Very simple to use app. The only thing it doesn't have is the option to use the 6-week plan where the 7th week is deload. Also there should have been an option to enter maxes manually instead of entering sets and reps all the time. Overall great app.

This is very useful.It would be great if you can add an option to adjust the plate available.For example, my gym doesn't have 1.25 kg plate.

It's a great app crooked queue! I was sad that I lost my records though I luckily maintained it in an excel as backup. Just two things.. One is could u bring back the reverse timer where we can set the time? If it gave an alarm or notification that would be great and second I liked the ability to delete my months and exercise once I completed it. It was useful in remembering which cycle I was in. Other than that I love it! Thanks a lot

It's pretty much a dead end for anyone serious about 5/3/1. This one is meant for the very very basic 5/3/1 lifters. The warm-up sets aren't even correct. It was put together kind of sloppy with a clean appearance.

I would add the following to make it more suitable for powerlifting 1. customizable sets and rep for main lifts. I like 3 5 1. 2. Able to add workout weeks per cycles before a deload 3. Able to rename the accessories and choose the reps and sets and percentage of accessory work 4. Remove joker set button for warm up and sets 1 and 2. 5. Condense it so you can see the entire workout without scrolling and touch to highlight so you can easily see whats completed would be nice

Everything works fine, simple to the point designs. Except plate loader stopped working a few days ago, not a huge issue, still a minor annoyance.
