Free Hevy Alternative: A Ready-Made Workout Plan at No Cost
Hevy is one of the best apps for logging workouts, but its plan generator (Hevy Trainer) is paid and the free version limits routines. Kinyvo does the opposite: it builds your full plan for free in one minute, with no sign-up — and you can log it wherever you like.
The one-minute summary
Choose Kinyvo if:
- You don't know how to build a routine and want a ready plan for your level, goal, days and equipment.
- You want it all free, with no routine limits and no account.
- You also want the diet: the same site builds your menu with calories and macros.
Choose Hevy if:
- You already have a routine and want to log every set with long history and charts.
- You want watch integration (Apple Watch, Wear OS) and a social training feed.

You can use both
You can use both: generate the plan for free on Kinyvo, copy the exercises into a Hevy routine and log your loads there. On Kinyvo itself, Train mode also ticks off sets, times your rest and remembers last session's loads.
