Forgetting routine is normal — let's work with it

Common ADHD issues like forgetting daily routines, disorganization, getting easily distracted, and impulsivity can make consistent workouts feel impossible. Rather than expecting you to beat those obstacles with sheer willpower, Make Me Workout is built to work around them:

ADHD challenge How Make Me Workout helps
Forgetting daily routines No streak pressure and friendly home/lock screen widgets to act as reminders.
Disorganization Keep the pre-loaded library or delete it, and organize your own favorites with tags. Nothing is forced on you.
Easily distracted No notifications. Your attention is your own. Widgets remind you naturally when using your phone.
Impulsivity Capture motivation the moment it strikes and keep it ready for when it fades.

To understand some of the ADHD challenges this app is designed around, this article on the three types of ADHD and their symptoms from Berkeley Psychiatrists is a helpful starting point.

Designing an app to be ADHD-friendly requires very intentional effort.

Make Me Workout is a workout app that was designed this way from the beginning.

Built around how ADHD actually works

A workout app that works with your brain, not against it.

Each feature below exists to solve a specific ADHD problem — lower the barrier to starting, catch motivation before it slips away, and make progress visible without any organizing required.

Use a pre-loaded library or clear it

Start With Our Library — Or Clear It All

The app ships with a library of exercises and workouts that can be cleared and/or restored. Hate organizing things? Delete and start from scratch. Hate blank screens? Keep the library and build upon it.

Don't know what you want to do today? Generate a random workout and get moving. You can set a time limit and filter it down by tag if you still want some control.

Import workouts from social media

Questions? We’ve got answers.

Why are there no notifications?

Toggle answer

Notifications are a constant source of distraction and pressure. Make Me Workout deliberately doesn't nag you - instead, optional home and lock screen widgets remind you naturally when you're already using your phone.

What if I miss a few days (or a week)?

Toggle answer

There's no streak to lose and no guilt. The app doesn't punish you for gaps - you just pick up where you left off whenever you're ready.

How does the app help when I lose motivation?

Toggle answer

Motivation fades fast, so the app is built to capture it the moment it strikes. Import an exercise or workout you see while scrolling, and it's saved and ready for when you want to move.

I hate organizing things. Will this work for me?

Toggle answer

Yes. You can keep the pre-loaded library as-is, or clear it and start from a blank slate. Tags are optional - nothing is forced on you, and progress is tracked per exercise so you don't have to keep records straight.
