For the full body workout the app always gives an estimate of 30 minutes, but it always takes me about two and a half hours if I follow the app's suggested rest times. And I always skip bench at the moment, so it would be even longer if I did that as well. If it's impossible to do the full body workout in 60 minutes following the default rest sessions it doesn't make sense to have 60 minutes as the standard estimate for it. Could you change the settings so that it gives a realistic time estimate for the workouts?

Allow an option to record exercises by distance such as cycling, walking or running. Currently we only have Reps and Time as options. 

The maximum weight / personal best that each exercise aims for should be more adaptive to the person, the exercise, and their history.

For big, compound exercises that I've been doing for years if I could get a 0.5% increase in my theoretical maximum, I'd be ecstatic.  Frequently, however, when it comes time to do the full hard-day deadlifts, bench presses, or squats, the Dr. Muscle application will recommend a weight/set-size for an insane 7-9% increase in my maximum.  I would injure myself even attempting that first rep of those sets; it is asking for weight far outside the bounds of what I can do and what would be safe to attempt.  This leaves me selecting my own weight amounts in order to find something that pushes my limits but doesn't injure me.

These big never-going-to-happen increases sometimes crop up for other single-muscle-group exercises but bother me less there.  I don't feel like I should call ahead to book a room at the hospital when attempting to curl significantly more than I can; I'll just not reach the number of reps Dr. Muscle is hoping for.

In short, it would be great if the application applied reasoning or logic such as this:

"We asked for a 5% increase last time, the user completed the set, and said he could have done 5-6 more reps. Let's shoot for another 5% this time."

Or

"We asked for a 5% increase last time, the user was only able to manage a 0.3% increase and indicated it was incredibly difficult, let's shoot for another 0.4% this time."

I'm currently using the Beta version of the product.

Increase speed of the app after pressing a button when moving on to the next exercise or completing a set (currently there is a lag)

Making the app choose weights based on available plates

this will give a broader range of weights that can be used with an exercise for instance instead of based on 

1.25kg as smallest plates

2.5kg, 5kg, 7.5kg,  10kg...

you could 

also use smaller plates of 0.5kg

wich will give you:

1kg, 2.5kg, 3.5kg, 5kg, 6kg, 7.5kg, 8.5kg, 10kg

this gives a broader room for training and weight choises.

And let u use all the weights you have available

I would like to see the ability to set up and save multiple gyms / equipment profiles to choose on a daily basis or travel to different gym. For example:

a) Home

b) Work

c) Hotel

To specify what equipment is in each gym, and add/remove equipment at any time, including cardio equipment like spin bike, rowing machine, etc.

The app is feeling increasingly over featured. That is, there are so many improvements it's losing that simple feel the original had. It was essentially a “modern fluid UI” Simple, flat, and focused in the task.

That is, what do I do, how much and how many. Day to day that is the core value for me. The rest timer and the plate calculator were excellent adds and generally do not did not interfere in the flow.

Much of the ability to create, manage, change, and edit things are nice but are only useful occasionally yet they are in every screen. I admit my bias for doing edit like planning things before or after a workout and never during.

The latest UI update seemed more clutter than value to me. The body part image isn’t, for me, useful DURING a workout The Font increase for the weight and reps was welcome (I’m old and prefer to not wear my glasses while I lift :)

I’m neutral on the x/n tracking. Its small.

The hard thing to “fix/adjust” is the sliding panels. When viewing and entire workout, I like it. During the workout I would prefer the screen be exclusively a single thing… the weight, the reps, and the rest timer in between.

None of these are fatal just my preference for designs that are simple and focused.

GROUP: Personal weight is recorded when one signs up for Dr Muscle. Would you like to track this PERSONAL WEIGHT GAIN/LOSS COMPONENT WITHIN THE APP?

RATIONALE: Since one of the goals is weight loss or at least measurable transformation in converting fat to muscle, it would be helpful to have the info tracked and make it part of the history/charting.

INITIAL RESPONSE FROM DR MUSCLE: “It is a great idea! I also thought it would be nice to track the body weight eventually. Would you like to suggest it to the other users and see if they would like us to work on that?”

ACTION REQUESTED: Group: jump on the band wagon and offer your “YES” or “OTHER APP TRACKING SUGGESTIONS”.

I'd love to be able to extract my training data via an API, for use in a presentation layer, that I could use to see more in-depth, custom graphs over time.  I know there's the web-app at the moment but my thinking is that, by providing this data via API, the community could develop some open-source dashboards (yes, I'm volunteering) that would mean the core dev team could focus on the app.
