Is there a good app that will allow me to search exercises based on the body part I want to work out and then build and keep my workouts?

For example, if I want to do a full body, can I search by Biceps, tris, shoulders, chest, etc. to make sure I've incorporated everything?

or if I just want to focus on legs, etc.?

    I have been playing around with Jefit for about 6 weeks now.

    I used to take a note book with me to the gym to track my workouts. I now bring my Galaxy S4 phone and just follow along with my pre-set workout. Love it!

    But, it is easier to set up a workout using the online website with a computer than with a phone or tablet. Once set up, it is a breeze to follow a workout at the gym with just my phone.

    I also like the rest timer between sets & exercises.

    Now if I could only consolidate my Garmin watch data with my Jefit data with my MFP data to get a complete picture!!

    Fitness Buddy is a good one that does what you described. The free version has a bunch of exercises but only tracks your last 5 workouts. The full version offers more exercises and allows you to store more.

    I haven't used the others suggested so I don't know how they compare.

    For Windows Phone users, nothing beats ProGym. Not available on other platforms.

    If the goal is a full body workout, you should be doing compounds, not isolations. You can get in a full body workout with just 3 basic exercises.
