Free vs Premium: How Hammr Compares to MFP, Hevy, and More
Add up MyFitnessPal plus Hevy plus a Watch score app — then compare what Hammr gives you free vs what competitors charge for.
The typical stack costs
Many lifters pay for MyFitnessPal Premium (barcode), Hevy Pro (lifting), and Athlytic or similar (Watch scores) — three subscriptions, three apps, zero closed loop.
Hammr free tier
Workout logging — sets, reps, weight, RPE, supersets, and rest timers
Nutrition tracking with free barcode scanning for every user
Basic Readiness, Recovery, Mental Stress, and Sleep scores
Outdoor GPS sessions (run, walk, hike, cycle) written to Apple Health
Apple Watch core companion — log workouts and meals from your wrist
What competitors charge for
MyFitnessPal: barcode scanning on free (Premium unlocks barcode + AI photo)
Hevy: advanced lifting Pro / lifetime — but no nutrition at any price
Strong: lifting only — food requires another app; no Live Activity
Athlytic: cheap Watch readiness — not a full gym or macro diary
Bevel Pro: workouts + nutrition + readiness at ~$100/yr — without Hammr-style recovery-aware adaptive macros
Cal AI: photo logging subscription without workouts or readiness
Hammr Premium value
One Premium subscription unlocks adaptive macros, adaptive volume, AI Coach, AI photo logging, and deep analytics — replacing three separate bills for users who want the full closed loop.
Annual pricing
Verify live App Store pricing before purchase. Hammr Premium is $59.99/year or $7.99/month — both include a 7-day free trial — or Lifetime for $125 one-time with slightly lower weekly AI limits. Subscription-funded, not ad-driven.
Start free, upgrade when ready
Log workouts and meals on the free tier first. When recovery-aware targets matter, trial Premium — you already have the data tracked.
