Make "challenges" optional

Martin Havelka 5 years ago 0

I don't need them, and the constant pop-ups are a bit annoying (I get them almost all the time, maybe because I always say "no" and the app registers this and asks me again the next time until I say "yes" once - then it would probably leave me in peace for a while)

Bug: Previous Sets Wrong

Joseph Williams 5 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 5 years ago 1

Recently, I've noticed that while the app requests reasonable weights and numbers of reps per work set, the yellow text is very wrong.  The yellow text describing the work sets I previously did and the percentage increase in strength the current work sets will give is clearly being calculated from a much lower weight.  So, while the application chooses something appropriate, the yellow text is useless.  This also makes it difficult to make slight adjustments to the recommended weight and number of reps because I can't see what I did last time.   I've included screenshots below to illustrate what I mean.

Thanks for reporting that issue Joe. We're on it. In fact, I believe we already have a fix in beta. I'm sending you an email now in case you'd like to join the beta and get the fix right away. For other customers reading this, please email support@drmuscleapp.com to join.


Otherwise, the fix should be out in 1-2 weeks.

Thx so much!

Compare personal workout statistics to other users.

Thomas Lorn 5 years ago 0

This would allow one to see if there gains are on par with the average user for various lifts and total strength. Perhaps if I see my bench strength compared to others is much slower in progress, it could be an indicator one of the many lifestyle variables is holding me back. Such as diet, lack of sleep, etc

Quickly see plateus by showing 12 week progress on all exercises in current workout program.

Artin Entezarjou 5 years ago 0

It would be nice to see if one is plateuing by only showing graphs of exercises performed regularly instead of having to think of each separately and look them up one by one.

The same way the manual "challenge" button works.

Happy to say this has already been implemented some time ago. Just tap "..." next to any exercise and "Deload" to trigger a manual deload. Marking as completed.

Confirmation for ‘finish exercise’

Robert 6 years ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 6 years ago 1

I would like to see a confirmation window come up when “finish exercise” is selected at the bottom of the page. I have accidentally selected the “finish exercise” before I was done with all of my sets, and the app falsely progressed me without allowing me to complete my sets.

Create home gym B workouts for more complete home gyms

Deniz Kiral 6 years ago 0

A suggestion for home gym routine in lieu of the complications of complete customization would be to have fixed options for the setup. For instance Home Gym option A would be for the basics, but Home Gym B would be for more complete gyms. For instance it might add the most common equipment like dips, glue-ab machine & rings. That way we could also know what you think would be an ideal gym equipment if one invested more.
