Skip a Workout
Bummer.. I'm injured. But the app is saying I should be doing a lower body workout.
If I just click Finish and Save, it almost appears like it will move me to the next level if I keep doing that.
Do I just select an Upper Body workout?
I wish there was a Skip this Session so that it will not save any data but allow me to move to the next iteration.
Maybe that's how it works now?

Hi Marc,
I'm really sorry to hear about what happened.
Until this suggestion gets enough votes and we implement it, yes, you would need to select the workouts you can do via the "Manage workouts" menu.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery,
Carl
Is there a workaround for this? I'm having some lower back problems. For now, I can safely do most of my upper-body workouts but need to do some plyometrics to replace lower body days for a while. Should I just put in the same weight/reps on the lower body days as I did before, indicating I made 0.00% progress? Or is there a better way? Is there a way to block my program from "leveling up" until I'm able to safely do lower body workouts?
Since this issue is pretty old, I thought I should check to see if the current version of the application has a more effective work around.
Thanks.
Hi,
We haven't started working on this suggestion and it only got 1 vote (we implement suggestions with the most votes first). In the meantime, I suggest you do the following:
1- Do upper-body workouts as normal
2- On lower-body workout days, tap "Finish and save workout" right away
3- When your program levels up, continue to work out as normal (your upper body needs the change)
Once your lower body is healed up, you can go back to your previous level that way:
Tap More (bottom bar)
Tap your name up top
Tap Change program
I hope this makes sense.
All the best,
Carl
I might suggest an alternate. Allow a user to mark an area of their body as injured, and the app asks the user if they’d like to skip that body part entirely or substitute some PT for that body part instead
