Show a preview photo of the exercise when listing them to edit workouts
Show a preview image/photo of the exercise when listing them to be selected. I had to open the videos to be sure which was the exercise and with what kind of weights and attachments (barbell, Dumbbell, Kettlebell, rope, bar, etc) was it done with.
Historical Reps
I’m currently doing 1 warmup set, and two working sets per exercise. In set #2 it shows a reminder / target of previous workout weight and reps. However, this isn’t showing for set #3. Seeing the previous rep count is motivating. Can I change a setting to see this, or is it in the programming?Thanks
Bug Report in app feature
Maybe we could get a "File a bug report" button in each exercise, whereby that would take you to a form. It would pre fill your member info, snag a log of the program for the developers, and give the user a comment area where you can describe, while fresh in your mind, the details of the issue. Perhaps be able to "browse" to a screenshot you have taken, if applicable. Then a "send" button which sends it to you guys. Thoughts? BTW on the software pgms I was involved with (Pro Tools et al) this was commonplace. Really eased the reporting of issues and encouraged feedback.
Bug: Some exercise marked complete when workout starts
Am I the only one who has some exercises marked complete when starting a workout. Seems to be the same exercise every time but not sure
Hi guys,
Turns out 5 users were affected and one sent us a video. We found and fixed the issue and taken steps to prevent similar issues in the future. Apple is reviewing our beta update as we speak (usually takes 1-2 days).
If you don't have access to beta builds, you can join and get the update now (if you're on Android) or as soon as Apple approves it (if you're on iPhone). Otherwise, it could take up to a week. To get the latest beta version of the app on your phone, follow the instructions below. Truly sorry about the issue.
Thanks for your patience,
Carl

If you're on Android read this, if not scroll down to iPhone:
1- Opt into the beta here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.drmaxmuscle.dr_max_muscle
2- Update to the latest version on your phone using the Google Play app:
Google Play >
Search for Dr. Muscle >
Tap "Update"
From that point on, the app should automatically update to the latest (beta) version when we release one.

If you're on iPhone:
1- Download TestFlight (Apple's app for beta testers): https://itunes.apple.com/app/testflight/id899247664?mt=8
2- Opt into the beta by clicking this link on your iPhone: https://testflight.apple.com/join/qkjapYet
Tap this blue button:
3- Open TestFlight on your phone, and tap "update" next to Dr. Muscle
When you update, if you see a warning that you may lose your data in the original app, ignore it. Your data is safe on our secure server at Microsoft and you will not lose it. From this point on, you'll get emails from Apple when new versions are available to test.
Custom Exercise Variations (With Custom Labels, and new calculated max)
Occasionally, I like to change the way I complete exercises, be it slowing release, changing grip, changing form, because of something I learned etc; this all changes max rep and calculated weight for that same exercise. It would be nice to be able to let the app know exercise variation (with custom labels and new calculated maxes), and have that variation carry over to the next workouts.
Good news! This feature is already inside the app. To create a custom exercise, do this:
Exercises (bottom nav) >
[+] button (bottom right)
Next, to swap it inside a workout on the fly, tap "..." and "swap" next to any exercise.
Thanks for your suggestion -- hope this makes sense. I'm marking it as completed.
Duplicate exercises to make easy, medium versions, etc.
Some workout plans have as many as three levels of effort; hard, medium, easy. If you swap a supplied exercise for a custom exercise in one of these plans, you'll need to create three versions of the same custom exercise (i.e. hard, medium, and easy). There needs to be a way to duplicate a custom exercise so that all you have to do is edit the name to have the appropriate version to swap into your workout. Also, this would make it much easier when you need to create a custom exercise for a different (but similar) machine at the gym, or exercise variation, since the weight and reps often aren't comparable between variations.
