Improve web-app

Martin Havelka 5 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 5 years ago 1

Couple of suggestions for improvements for the web-app:

1. Downloading csv data - it's great that we can do this, but even though the download comes in .csv, it still needs manual adjustments to make the data workable. I always get a "header" for each date in one line, following the individual stats for each day in subsequent line. This doesn't make sense for csv. It would be better if ALL data was in every line. So Date/Time/Exercise/Weight/Reps etc all in every line.

Also, please add the year. Right now, it makes it hard to compare multi-year data, as there is no info for the year and I have to add it manually.

2. Since max weight and work sets are both shown on the same graph with the same scale, the graph is "zoomed out" quite a bit, and all curves look pretty much flat, even if you have a 3% improvement in max weight. I would like to see either to separate graphs (or just one graph with max weight, "work sets" doesn't mean much, as it's always 5 if you look at an individual exercise), or one graph with two different scales on the left hand and the right hand side.

Add Ability to Manage Exercises Online (in browser)

Glen Acord 5 years ago 0

It would be great to manage exercises online, i.e. creating new ones, editing, renaming, etc. I find that I want different versions depending on which gym I'm in because machines are different, and even the "same" machines aren't the same regarding the weight marked on the stack. I know it can be done in the app but it would be easier to make lots of changes in a web browser.

Exercise Order Options

Bob Peake 5 years ago 0

For the last six months, you could pick any exercise from the workout list to perform next, in any order. If Leg Press was next on the list, and someone was using the machine, you simple chose another exercise. When you saved that exercise, you could then pick Leg Press, or something else if the equipment was still busy.  I really like the look of the new interface, the fact that reps and weights are editable while you do the exercise, etc. BUT, I don't think the next exercise on the list should be "automatically started" when you save the previous exercise. It only takes one touch to select any exercise, but takes a lot of effort to "back out" and do a different exercise if it is already "pre-loaded" for you.  If a lot of people like the new "auto start", maybe there could be an "option" or "switch" in Setup where you can choose if you prefer "Auto Start Next Exercise in list" or "Choose the next exercise yourself"? (like it worked before)

Long press and swipe to re order exercises

Dipesh Patel 6 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 5 years ago 1

Would be great if we can have a long press and swipe on an exercise to change its order faster, on the order of exercises page as it's very tedious to move them with the arrows.

Custom rest between sets

I would find it useful to set the custom rest time between sets under settings at the exercise level (same page as custom reps).

Update recommended weight and reps when if I change increments while I execute an exercise

Jonathan Austin 6 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 5 years ago 2

After I open an exercise and get to the screen where I save my sets, if I go and change increments, I have to exit the app to have increments reflected in the exercise execution. Have a look: https://photos.app.goo.gl/FTXEwuYA3dKnBYu79

Support 25 pound bars and other custom bars in plate calculator

Peter Naughton 6 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 6 years ago 7

I like the new plate calculator but it only supports 45 pound barbells when there are also 25 pound EZ bars and the sled of a leg press machine that weighs 118 pounds I think that there should be support for other barbells and other sources that require plates.

Thank you,

Peter
