Our most-requested feature is finally here!
You can now track your workouts by logging your weights, time, and reps, as well as take notes to capture your thoughts when working out.
Here’s how this new feature works:
You can log your workouts from the workout overview or the exercise video player by tapping the Logging icon — it looks like a pencil.
Input your weights and reps and also add notes.
To save your progress in drafts, you must click on the checkmarks from the workout overview or the logging screen.
However, to save your log to your Log History and Calendar, you must swipe or mark the workout as complete.
To view your logs, click on the Logs button in your Profile tab. You will find your logs in chronological order with the most recent log at the top. Tap the View button to view the full note.
You can also view your History by opening the History tab. Access this tab within the logging screen as shown below.
If you want to look up your past logs for a specific exercise to check what you lifted previously, tap the Previous button next to the exercise name. This will automatically search for logs containing similar keywords.
Note: To view the full note, you must tap View as the History screen will only show you a preview.
You can also view your logs in the Calendar from the Profile tab to easily access your log from a particular day.
When you exit the app without completing a workout, you will see a banner (like the one below) when you reopen the app that allows you to easily re-enter your workout so you can complete your workout and save your log. You can also mark the workout as complete from this screen directly by tapping the checkmark.
Can I edit reps suggested by the creator when creating a log?
Yes, you can type over the gray pre-filled inputs within a log and input a different number. Likewise, if you want to track AMRAP sets, you can enter an input in place of the ‘F’.
How can I open the workout directly from my log?
To navigate to the workout directly, you can tap on the arrow next to the workout name.
Can I edit the workout?
This functionality will be available in the future.
Can I add additional sets?
This functionality will be available in the future.
How can I delete a log?
Tap on the ellipsis menu within History or on your log and select Delete. This action cannot be undone.
Why am I seeing a timer at the top of my screen and how can I turn it off?
This timer tracks the amount of time you’re in the workout and the ability to turn it off will be provided in the future.
Where is the rest and exercise timer in the new design?
This timer has now been moved to the bottom.
How can I change the units displayed?
You can choose how to display units: imperial or metric. Navigate to the Profile then tap the settings icon to switch units.
