Clarify triceps pushdown variations
It would be nicer stated as:
- triceps rope push down
- tricep bar push down
- triceps rope one arm push down
This way, you don’t first have to look at the video, to see if you would like to swap your old exercise with the new one.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Raymond Puijk
[Note to team: change current pushdown to rope and add bar and one-arm variations.]

Supersets agonist/antagonist
It would be great if the app had an 'superset' option combining 2 exercises together with optimal rest time for supersers between sets.
somewhere between 90-120sec?
and fully automates and alternate sets between the 2 exercises which you combined trough the superset option.
Thanks for voting for this feature—it's in beta!
When you select exercises to superset, the app will now fully automate and alternate sets between the two exercises.No more scrolling back and forth!

Garmin watch integration
“You can now save sets and workouts on your watch.”
I would want to see the same capabilities and more :)
The real dream, is to start and finish all the workout. With the timer countdown and so on...
I also, wonders if a cardio feature could be included in Dr.Muscle; I’m referring to reports. If there was an integrated cardio watch that sent info to the Dr.M app. We could see cardio fitness etc. I also would include cardio recording through the works out. Not just the HIIT section. As I do switch up weights and resistance with speed reps etc.which puts my heart rate up.
Having a cell or tablet. Is great. However one has to put it in a safe place, away from weights and off the floor; and go to and from the device. If you’re in a public gym, which I’m not! It might be more of a challenge. Even just to hear the “ding” lol. The watch would vibrate and ding!
Hence why, I wear a watch. It’s with me! The garmin has 100’s of Apps. Wish Dr.Muscle was one :)
Cheers,
Kevin Gale
Ability to use both kilograms and pounds in customisation field.
My gym has equipment from several different vendors. Sometimes the equipment measures in pounds and on other machines it measures in kilos. This makes it difficult to specify what machines I can use as if the app is set to kilos, I can't enter that on a machine that uses Lbs. If we could specify in an exercise that this particular machine uses Lbs and not kilos, that would be quite useful for me.
Show your history for an exercise as you do it
I miss the ability to view your history from the last 3-4 workouts in a specific exercise within your current workout menu.
In Dr. Muscle you have to go to history menu then search for the specific exercise you want to check the history.
Attached I’m showing you an image of what I trying to explain. This would improve the app.
Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's in beta! From the announcement:
Want to see your history for an exercise as you do it? Now you can! This is one of our top requested features, so I’m happy to bring it to you today. In the past, the app would show you how many reps and weight you lifted the last time you did your first work set. Now it shows you that information for all your sets! Thanks to André for suggesting that feature, and to all those who voted for it.

Add plate calculation to “get ready” screen
Rather than clicking “hide” and the plate icon (and losing the view of the countdown), make the plate calculation visible directly on the countdown screen. Something like the image attached.
Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's done! You will now see an icon with "Show plates" on your fullscreen timer when you do a plate exercise.

Tell me the calories I’ve used during a workout
Would DrMuscle be able to tell me the calories I’ve used during a workout? It knows the sets, reps and weight so I think it would be able to do this?
Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's in beta!
Dr. Muscle now shows you your calories at the end of each workout, and on your History page (coming soon). Note that counting calories can help you burn fat, but that you must be careful not to eat too much to do so, even if you work out hard.

Specify rep ranges for different workout days and exercises
I think that the app needs the ability to specify rep ranges for different workout days and for different exercises instead of having to make the changes on the fly so that its more permanent because I have a program that is for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and Monday is heavy and should be lower rep ranges and Wednesday is light and should be high rep ranges and Friday is moderate and should be somewhere in the middle, and exercises like deadlifts should have some restrictions on rep ranges to avoid injury but some exercises can be higher and some you may want to do a 5X5 with just as and example.
Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's done!
Previously, you could customize reps at the global and exercise levels. Now, you can also customize reps at the workout level. To do that, tap "..." and "more" next to any workout.

- Open the store app on your phone
- Search for Dr. Muscle
