For most exercises I don't count weight and prefer some variation, so no schedule for that.

maybe the paid one, but the online one is too "ad" heavy. takes a shitload time to do daily shit sometimes. Also, cant break down diet into "meals"...just one mess. You have to do stuff like create a food like "---------" to separate a meal.

For exercise I use Excel... took me a while to figure out inserting the damn formulas!

This is awesome. Thank you. I was able to quickly calculate the nutritional profile for a chicken stirfry with 8 ingredients.

I doubt many bodybuilders will need this since they only eat simple items like chicken, broccoli, tuna, etc., but if you actually enjoy cooking with many ingredients...this will be a godsend.
