Hamkke matches you with verified gym buddies and mentors in your building and your gym. Learn from someone a few steps ahead — and lift up someone just starting out.
You're never just a beginner. On Hamkke you learn from someone a few rungs above, train beside people at your level, and lift up someone newer — all at once.
Tell us how long you've trained and what you're after. We place you on the experience ladder.
See verified lifters in your apartment gym and nearby — filtered to mentors, buddies, or people you can help.
Book a free buddy session or a paid hour with a mentor. Meet at the gym, log the lift, build the habit.
Every layer of Hamkke is built so you can show up confident — whether it's your first session or your hundredth.
Members can confirm a government ID to earn a verified badge — so you can spot verified lifters at a glance before you connect.
We confirm members actually train where they say — no catfishing your squat rack.
See honest ratings and vouches from other lifters before you ever say hello.
For first sessions, Hamkke suggests public, staffed gym times — never an empty room.
Send a trusted contact your live location and session details in a single tap.
Paid mentors display real coaching and CPR / first-aid credentials, verified by us.
With the rise of apartment gyms, your next training partner might be three floors up. Filter by your building, your gym, or all nearby — then by mentor, buddy, or someone to coach.
Pick a plan or build your own cycle, then just lift. Hamkke counts your rest, logs your sets, and tracks volume and PRs live — and it keeps going in the background if you lock your phone or step away mid-workout.
Because Gym Mode logs every set, your big lifts trend up on their own — no spreadsheet. Watch your PRs climb, keep your streak alive, and see your whole training year at a glance.
Rally your building or your buddies around a shared goal — total reps, sessions, a streak, or raw volume — over a set window. Every workout you log adds to one communal total, and The Chain shows who's pulling the crew forward. Or drop into the official Challenge of the Month, open to everyone and fresh each month.
Safety is the core of Hamkke. Members can verify a government ID to earn a trust badge, gym check-ins are confirmed, and first sessions are suggested during staffed, public gym hours. Sensitive details like your lifts and precise location are shared only with people you accept as connections. You can share your live session with a trusted contact in one tap, and read vouches and reviews before you match.
Absolutely — Gym Mode is a full training companion on its own. Pick a plan like Push·Pull·Legs or build your own cycle, then lift: it runs the rest timer, logs each set, and tracks your volume and PRs live. Pause and pick up later, and it keeps going in the background with a tappable control notification. Everything flows straight into Progress, so your lifts and streak update themselves — no double entry.
No. Finding and training with buddies at your level is completely free. You only pay when you choose to book a paid session with a mentor, and prices are always shown up front.
Especially for you. Hamkke exists so newcomers never feel lost. You'll be matched with patient mentors and buddies who were beginners once too — and you can keep it free with a buddy or learn faster with a paid mentor.
Yes. If you've got experience to share, set your rate and get discovered by newer lifters in your building and gym. Hamkke handles secure payments and scheduling so you can focus on coaching.
Not at all. Apartment gyms are a perfect fit because your match might be a few floors away — but Hamkke works at any gym. Filter by your building, your gym, or everyone nearby.
Join the early-access list and be first to match with verified buddies and mentors in your gym.
