FitNik

Food and training, logged in one place.

FitNik is a diary for what you eat and how you train. Search a food, scan a barcode, start a workout, and see calories and macros for the day.

Built for personal use. No feed, no friends list, no streak badges yelling at you.

What you can log

The stuff you already do, written down so you can see the week instead of guessing.

Food diary

Search USDA foods, scan a barcode, or type a portion you already know. Copy yesterday if breakfast barely changes. Rings show calories, protein, carbs, and fat against your target, plus how much you have left today.

Workouts

Start Push Day, a 30 minute treadmill walk, or a routine you built. Strength is reps and weight. Walks, planks, and bikes are time or distance, so the treadmill never asks for a barbell load. Each exercise shows a photo and the steps on the card while you train.

Progress

Weight over time, daily calories and macros, training volume, and a few PRs. Today and the charts use your local date, so logging dinner at 10pm still counts as today.

A normal day

You do not need a plan to start. Most people log food first, then add training when they want the gym side too.

  1. Step 1

    Set a target

    Add height, weight, and activity on your profile. FitNik estimates calories with Mifflin-St Jeor. You can type your own numbers if you already have them.

  2. Step 2

    Log meals

    Search, scan, or add something by hand. Favorites and recents sit at the top so the foods you actually eat are one tap.

  3. Step 3

    Train

    Open a routine or start an empty session. Check off sets, rest, finish when you're done, or leave it running and pick it up later.

  4. Step 4

    Look back

    Progress is the longer view. Weight, macros, and workout days in one place, not a separate spreadsheet.

Details that matter at the gym

Time, distance, or reps

A plank is a timer. A treadmill walk is minutes, not weight. A run can be distance. Lifts stay reps and kilos (or pounds, if that is what you use).

How to do the movement

Exercise cards include photos and numbered steps from free-exercise-db. Open a routine and the how-to is already on the card. Hide it if you already know the lift.

What this is not

FitNik is not a social network, a coach in your pocket, or a watch app. Garmin and Apple Health are on the list later. Right now the web app is the product: log food, train, look at the week.

On a phone, add it to your home screen. Food search and barcode scan work in the browser. iPhone camera needs HTTPS (Safari is picky about that).
