If a game is what you are missing

Neither app has a game layer. We make GYM RPG, which logs the same sets, reps and weight and adds XP, a skill tree and a party boss. It is not a drop-in for either app, because we have no import tool and you would start fresh.

I was overweight, but after the installation I feel like a new person, and my character is beautiful and strong.
