LiftTrace — self-hosted weightlifting tracker (Docker + PWA + Android), first public release
(github.com)
Just made LiftTrace public after months of development. It's a self-hosted weightlifting / training log that runs in a single Docker container on your own hardware, with a PWA frontend and a signed Android APK. Sister app to NutriTrace under the same TraceApps umbrella.

What it does:
- Diary with sets, reps, RPE, warm-up flagging, supersets, rest timer
- Smart Add — type or speak your workout ("bench 3x5 @ 225, A1: curls 3x12, A2: pushdowns 3x12") and the AI parses it into structured sets
- Programs with mesocycles, weekly templates, coach prescriptions for trainer / athlete pairs
- Exercise library seeded from wger + Free Exercise DB (~1,500 exercises with images), plus your own custom uploads
- Statistics: volume, PRs, frequency heatmap, body weight trends
- OIDC SSO for Authentik, Keycloak, Pocket ID, Authelia, Auth0, Google, etc.
- Workout History Import from Strong, Hevy, FitNotes, and Jefit CSVs (so you don't lose your history switching over)
- Radio player built in for Subsonic / Jellyfin / Plex / Emby plus internet stations (because lifting and lockscreen media controls > switching apps mid-set)
- AI coach with live workout context — bring your own Claude / OpenAI / Gemini key, or point it at Ollama / LM Studio / any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
- Android app with offline-first SQLite, biometric sign-in, native ExoPlayer, optional WorkManager reminders
Self-hosted principles:
- AGPL-3.0, source is open, no telemetry, no central server, no analytics, no cloud sync to anybody else
- Single Docker container + bind-mounted volumes for DB and uploads
- Your data stays on your hardware. Back up with
cp, restore withcp.
Quick start:
services:
lifttrace:
image: ghcr.io/traceapps/lifttrace:latest
ports: ["3002:3003"]
volumes:
- ./data/db:/data/db
- ./data/uploads:/data/uploads
environment:
- DB_PATH=/data/db/lifttrace.db
- UPLOADS_PATH=/data/uploads
- JWT_SECRET=change-me
So I guess it's slop? This looks shady.

I would have 1000% more confidence in the project if you just used public domain Clipart to a nauseating degree than AI slop
Oh it's all slop. I trust this app less than I trust RFK jr's medical advice
