10 Best Free Workout Apps of 2026

This list is for people training at home who want a free workout app and need to know which plans, classes and videos are actually free.

   Best forpeople training at home who want free video classes and full programs

   Nike Training Club ranks first because it gives away what most rivals charge for: trainer-led video classes and structured multi-week programs. Its US App Store listing says Nike Members get free access to the latest strength training, conditioning, yoga, pilates, recovery and mindfulness content, and the listing shows no in-app purchases. For home training it has a dedicated category of whiteboard and trainer-led workouts made for small spaces and no equipment, plus bodyweight workouts that target arms, legs and abs. Programs run for weeks and can be set for the gym or home. The Apple Watch app advances moves and shows heart rate, and workouts sync to Apple Health. The limits are geographic and functional: video on demand is listed for 12 countries, NTC TV is US only, and it is not a set and rep logger for people writing their own lifting plans. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The US App Store listing shows no in-app purchases, so programs and classes are free with a Nike Membership
   • ✓Equipment-free bodyweight workouts are a named category
   • ✓NTC TV lets US users train hands-free on a TV

   • ✕Video on demand classes are limited to 12 listed countries, including the US and UK
   • ✕No custom set and rep logging like Hevy or Strong
   • ✕Requires a Nike Member account

   Price:

   Free

   Free content:

   All classes and programs for Nike Members

   Video classes:

   Yes, in the US, UK and 10 other countries

   Platforms:

   iPhone, Apple Watch

   Bottom line: Nike Training Club is the best free workout app for home training because its classes and multi-week programs cost nothing with a Nike Membership. Pick a tracker such as Hevy if you write your own lifting plans.

   Best forpeople who want free follow-along video classes on a phone, laptop or TV

   FitOn is the closest rival to Nike Training Club for free video workouts. Its US App Store listing promises unlimited access to free workouts and meditations, says no subscription is required, and states that fitness is always 100% free. The library covers cardio, strength, HIIT, dance, yoga, Pilates and Barre, and you can filter by body part, length and intensity, which helps when you have 10 minutes in a living room. Personalized plans target weight loss, muscle, toning or stress. Classes play on a phone, a computer at app.fitonapp.com or Apple TV. FitOn PRO is optional and adds personalized meal plans, 500+ recipes, unlimited offline downloads, heart rate zones with Fitbit and Garmin, and premium music; the listing says it is billed annually. It ranks just behind Nike Training Club because offline downloads are paid and its programming depth is less documented. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The App Store listing says no subscription is required and there are no limits on workouts
   • ✓Classes stream on a TV or computer as well as the phone
   • ✓Free guided meditations are included

   • ✕Offline downloads need FitOn PRO
   • ✕Meal plans and 500+ recipes are PRO only
   • ✕The PRO price is not stated in the listing text, only as in-app purchase items

   Price:

   Free; optional FitOn PRO

   Free content:

   All workouts and plans

   PRO adds:

   Meal plans, offline downloads, premium music

   Platforms:

   iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, web

   Bottom line: FitOn is the best free choice for follow-along video classes because every workout and plan is free and plays on a TV or laptop. Upgrade to PRO only if you want meal plans or offline downloads.

   Best forpeople lifting dumbbells or weights at home who want to log sets for free

   Hevy is the best free option if your home training means dumbbells, a bench or a pull-up bar and you want to track progress rather than follow a video. The US App Store listing describes it as free with no ads and says you can keep using Hevy for free if you never buy Pro. The free app logs weights, reps, duration and RPE, shows last session's numbers, runs rest timers, and handles supersets, drop sets and warm-ups. It includes exercise videos with instructions and a free library of full splits. Hevy Pro adds Hevy Trainer, which builds a program around your goal and equipment (the listing notes it works with only dumbbells and a mat), plus unlimited routines and custom exercises and your complete history. The App Store lists Hevy Pro Yearly at $23.99. It trails the video apps because it does not teach full classes. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The App Store listing says Hevy is free with no ads
   • ✓Hevy Pro is $23.99 a year in the US, less than Strong PRO at $29.99 a year
   • ✓Apple Watch app logs sets without the phone

   • ✕Hevy Trainer, the adaptive program builder, needs Hevy Pro
   • ✕Unlimited routines and custom exercises are Pro features
   • ✕No follow-along video classes

   Price:

   Lifetime option:

   Platforms:

   Bottom line: Hevy is the best free workout tracker for home lifters because logging, rest timers and a routine library are free with no ads. Hevy Pro at $23.99 a year adds an adaptive program builder.

   Best forbusy people who want short, equipment-free workouts

   Seven is built around one idea: a 7-minute workout with no equipment, which makes it an easy fit for a hallway or living room. The US App Store listing says you can work out anywhere, anytime with no equipment, set a goal of Get Fit, Lose Weight or Get Strong, take a daily workout challenge, build your own workouts and compete with friends. The app is free to download, and the paid 7 Club membership adds personal plans adapted to your fitness level, access to all workouts and over 200 exercises, and support from a certified personal trainer. That split means the free tier is useful but deliberately narrower than Nike Training Club or FitOn. We could not confirm the 7 Club USD price from a plain vendor price statement, so it is marked as pending. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓Free to download with workouts you can do anywhere, per the App Store listing
   • ✓Sessions are 7 minutes, which fits small spaces and schedules
   • ✓Apple Watch and Apple Health support

   • ✕The 7 Club membership is needed to access all workouts and 200+ exercises
   • ✕Adapted personal plans are a 7 Club feature
   • ✕Short sessions are less suited to longer strength programs

   Price:

   Free to download; 7 Club membership optional

   Session length:

   7 minutes

   Equipment:

   None needed

   Platforms:

   iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch

   Bottom line: Seven is the best pick for people who only have a few minutes because its core workouts take 7 minutes and need no equipment. Expect to pay for 7 Club if you want every workout and adapted plans.

   Best forlifters following a set barbell or dumbbell routine

   Strong is a lean logging app aimed at people who already know what they want to lift. Its US App Store listing says the free version can save unlimited workouts but is limited to 3 custom routines, and that Strong PRO costs $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year for unlimited routines and other PRO features. The app is tuned for progressive barbell routines such as Starting Strength or StrongLifts 5x5 but adapts to other plans, which works for a home setup with a rack or dumbbells. Features include rest timers, warm-up and plate calculators, one rep max and volume graphs, supersets, body measurements with Apple Health, and CSV export. It ranks below Hevy because Hevy's free tier includes a routine library and Strong caps free users at 3 routines. It is not a source of guided videos. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The free version saves unlimited workouts
   • ✓Strong PRO is $29.99 a year in the US
   • ✓Fully featured Apple Watch app

   • ✕The free version is limited to 3 custom routines
   • ✕No guided classes or video workouts to follow
   • ✕In-app purchases and subscriptions cannot be shared using Family Sharing, per the listing

   Price:

   Free; PRO $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year

   Free limit:

   3 custom routines

   Lifetime option:

   Strong PRO Forever listed as an in-app purchase

   Platforms:

   iPhone, Apple Watch

   Bottom line: Strong is a good free logger for people running one simple routine because the free version saves unlimited workouts. Its 3-routine cap makes Strong PRO at $29.99 a year likely for anyone with a split.

   Best forpeople who like bodyweight HIIT and calisthenics at home

   Freeletics is the most clearly defined freemium option on this list. Its US App Store listing says the free version contains 34 HIIT bodyweight workouts, 100+ exercises and access to the community, which is enough for regular equipment-free sessions at home. Upgrading to the Freeletics Coach adds an AI personal trainer that builds and adjusts each workout, 30 Training Journeys, 700+ exercises, hundreds of on-demand workouts and a routine builder, and it covers cardio, weights and gym machines as well as bodyweight training. The subscriptions come in 3, 6 or 12 month terms for Training or Training and Nutrition, and the listing notes a right to withdraw within 14 days. Because the listing text does not state the USD price, we record the Coach price as shown in the app. It ranks mid-table because the free tier is capped and personalization is paid. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The free tier is a defined set of 34 bodyweight workouts, so you know what you get
   • ✓Bodyweight focus suits home training with no equipment
   • ✓14-day withdrawal right on the initial subscription, per the listing

   • ✕Personalized plans and the AI Coach need a paid subscription
   • ✕Subscriptions are sold in 3, 6 or 12 month terms, not monthly
   • ✕The listing text does not state the Coach price in USD

   Price:

   34 HIIT bodyweight workouts, 100+ exercises

   Best forpeople who want studio-style classes and are open to paying later

   Peloton App has the deepest class library here, but most of it is paid. The US App Store listing says you can experience Peloton with the Free Peloton App or a 30-day trial of a paid membership, and that thousands of workouts are available with or without equipment. Categories include strength, indoor and outdoor running, cycling, yoga, HIIT, meditation and stretching, with live classes, artist series, programs and challenges. Classes stream to a TV through Apple TV, AirPlay or Chromecast. The App Store lists Peloton App One at $15.99 a month or $159.00 a year and App+ at $28.99 a month. Peloton's website says App One gives unlimited strength, yoga, meditation and running classes plus 3 cardio equipment classes per month, and that new members need a credit card for the trial. For a home trainer who wants studio-style classes and expects to pay, it is a strong option; for a free-only plan, it ranks lower. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓The App Store listing offers a Free Peloton App as well as a 30-day trial of paid tiers
   • ✓Classes need no Peloton equipment
   • ✓Apple Watch app tracks stats during classes

   • ✕The full library needs App One at $15.99 a month or $159.00 a year in the US
   • ✕Peloton's website requires a credit card for the free trial
   • ✕Cardio equipment classes are capped at 3 a month on App One; unlimited needs App+ at $28.99 a month

   App+:

   $28.99 per month or $289.00 per year

   Bottom line: Peloton App is the pick for studio-style instructor classes at home because its library covers strength, yoga, HIIT and running with no equipment required. The full library costs $159.00 a year for App One, so it is not a free-first choice.

   JEFIT has the largest documented exercise library among the trackers here. Its US App Store listing describes it as the free workout tracker, gym log and strength training planner, with 1,400+ exercises that include HD video instructions and animations, custom workouts, supersets and rest timers, and built-in bodybuilding programs to download. For home training, the instant workout option lets you set time, equipment and muscle focus without a gym. Analytics include volume charts, weekly sets per muscle, a muscle map and a recovery chart. JEFIT Elite adds the Adaptive AI Coach, a premium analytics dashboard and an Elite routine library for $12.99 a month or $69.99 a year in the US. It ranks below Hevy and Strong because its paid tier costs more and the app carries more settings. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓Calls itself a free workout tracker, gym log and strength training planner
   • ✓Instant workout setting works for home equipment
   • ✓Tracks body weight, body fat and measurements

   • ✕JEFIT Elite costs $12.99 a month or $69.99 a year, more than Hevy Pro or Strong PRO

   Best forhome yoga practitioners willing to pay after a trial

   Down Dog is on this list because many people searching for free home workouts find it, and they should know it is not free. Its FAQ says that since September 2018 the app gives a brief free trial with full access, after which a subscription is required, across all of its apps. What the subscription buys is strong: the US App Store listing says it builds a brand-new practice every time, with over ten yoga styles, a Boost feature for 19 body areas, 6 teacher voices and 13 languages, and one subscription also covers Pilates, HIIT and meditation. The vendor site adds offline downloads and casting to a TV. Down Dog says it has given away 1.2M+ free subscriptions to students, teachers and people in need, and its FAQ notes that web purchases usually cost less than in-app ones. We could not confirm a single USD starting price from plain vendor text, so pricing is pending. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

   • ✓Practices download for offline use and cast to a TV, per the vendor site
   • ✓Down Dog says it has given 1.2M+ free subscriptions to those in need
   • ✓Beginner levels with poses unlocked as you progress

   • ✕No permanent free plan: Down Dog's FAQ says a brief free trial is followed by a required subscription
   • ✕In-app prices are usually higher than buying on downdogapp.com, per its FAQ
   • ✕No lifetime subscription

   Bottom line: Down Dog is the pick for home yoga if you are ready to pay because it generates a new practice each session across 10+ styles. It has no permanent free plan, so free-only users should start with Nike Training Club or FitOn.

    Best forpeople who want an AI-built lifting plan and will pay for it

    Fitbod is a paid AI training planner, included here because it is often recommended for home strength training and buyers should know its cost structure. Its US App Store listing opens with 7 days free and unlimited personalized workouts, then states that after the trial an auto-renewing monthly or yearly subscription unlocks all premium workouts and features. The planner builds each session around your fitness level and equipment, says it supports home training with no equipment, uses non-linear periodization, and learns from your edits. The library lists 1000+ exercises with multi-angle videos, and it integrates with Apple Health, Strava, Fitbit and Apple Watch. Pro trainers answer strength questions by email. Because there is no free plan and we could not confirm one USD starting price from plain vendor text, it ranks last on value. Hevy Pro's Hevy Trainer is a cheaper paid alternative for AI-built plans. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests.

    • ✓Adapts sessions to the equipment you have at home
    • ✓Pro trainers answer questions by email
    • ✓Search exercises by muscle group, equipment or keyword

    • ✕No permanent free plan: the listing offers 7 days free, then a subscription
