Built a session at a time

Print it.

Excel sheets. Workout plans. Something to bring to the next session.

Use it.

Train, track, and find out what actually helps when you’re doing the work.

Build on it.

Turn that experience into an app. Keep refining it as the journey continues.

The story behind the app

Made by the people
using it.

We’re Steve and Josh, the two people behind S.A.D. Studios. Honest Effort grew out of our own workout and exercise journey over the last two years.

Before there was an app, there were Excel sheets and printed workouts. We used them, learned from our sessions, and kept adjusting. As our needs changed, the tools changed with them.

Honest Effort is the next step: an app shaped by our experience and refined as we use it. A place for the plan, the sets, the rest between them, and the progress that comes from showing up.

What we’re building around

A plan that fits your day.

Workout planning around your available time, schedule, and equipment.

Less friction between sets.

Set logging, previous performance, rest timers, and the ability to pick up where you left off.

See the work add up.

Weekly completion and progress tracking that keep the work you’ve done in view.

Still an honest effort

We’re putting in the work.
More soon.

Honest Effort is in development. Follow S.A.D. Studios for updates, or get in touch if you’d like to ask about the app.
