Strava Launches Strength Training Expansion With Workout Log and Muscle Maps

Strava is known as a popular fitness app for tracking workouts for runners and cyclists. Now, its more than 195 million users can also make it their go-to app for tracking strength training sessions with the app’s new expansion.

The app announced its expansion into strength training mode, which now includes a dedicated workout log that tracks sets, reps, and weight lifted. Users can then review and repeat their workouts easily to monitor weight progression and get stronger in the gym.

The updates also include Muscle Maps, a feature that generates a visual representation of the muscles worked, highlighting the muscle groups trained based on the exercises the user performed.

Strava users can also share their lifts and progress with friends, clubs, and the Strava community, similar to how the app currently supports outdoor recorded workouts.

According to Strava’s Trend Report, Gen Z is twice as likely to choose strength training as their preferred workout compared to Gen X.

“Strength has been one of the fastest-growing sport types on Strava for some time, with over 500 million uploads in 2025 alone, and our community has been clear about what they need from us,” said Matt Salazar. “This overhaul brings the same depth, motivation, and shareability that Strava is known for to a myriad of strength activities. Whether someone is training for a race, lifting for general fitness, or building strength as their primary activity, they now have tools that meet them where they actually are, and this is only the beginning.”

Strength training is important for all athletes, helping build endurance and power that translate into improved performance across all sports.

“More athletes are incorporating strength training into their overall fitness routines, and at Hevy we are focused on delivering the best possible strength training experience while making it effortless to log, track, and share workouts. We are proud to partner with Strava to help elevate strength training and make humanity stronger together,” said Guillem Ros.

Since nearly 50% of young active consumers already use apps or wearables to track strength workouts, users can now track both their runs and gym sessions in a single app.

Strava is partnering with other major players in the industry so athletes’ data can be integrated seamlessly into the app. This includes 14 partners offering automatic integration:

• 24 Hour Fitness (coming this summer)
• Amazfit
• Caliber
• COROS
• Fitbod
• Garmin
• Hevy
• iFIT
• JEFIT
• Liftoff
• Motra
• REMAKER
• Runna
• WHOOP

The new strength training expansion will roll out in the Strava app in the coming weeks.
