Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's done! When you create your account, the app will now ask for your age and give you a program with fewer workout days or even easy workouts based on your answer.

If you're already using the app and your progress is slow, I would recommend you consider:

- Getting on a split body program if you're older than 30

- Getting on a level 6 program if you're older than 50


You may recover better (or worse) than other people your age, so those guidelines may not apply to you. If you've been making good progress on your current program, I'd stick to it.

If you're on Android, you can update now. If you're on iPhone, you'll have to wait 2-3 days for Apple to approve it. To update:

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

Now would be a great time to suggest and vote for our next feature. If you'd like to do that, please visit: https://muscle.userecho.com/communities/1-submit-your-feedback/topics#.

Really appreciate your support and advice. Thanks!

I agree with this, I’m 57. Takes me a little longer to recover than a 30 year old.
