"Back Button" function during an exercise set

Bob Peake 5 years ago updated by Marc David 5 years ago 7

When doing a exercise, lets say you are doing your 3rd set of an exercise, and you accidently save the wrong information (ie, weight said 57.5 pounds and you did 60)… the "back button" should just take you back to the last page so you can update that information, then move on with set 4.  Currently, it takes you to the beginning of that exercise and all the sets you have done, and it is a bit difficult to navigate back to set 3, update, and move on to set 4.

I realize "back" is different in different situations, if you have saved the exercise then "back" would take you to the exercise level, but if you are doing sets, it would be better if it just went "back one page" to be able to correct a bad entry and continue.

Hi Bob,

To correct a bad entry, you can tap "..." next to that saved set, and tap "edit". Does that work for you?

I too have been confused by the back button behavior a few times. For the same reason Bob described, I wanted to go back to the last set via the back button. To me this was intuitively the right thing to do.

Anyways, now that I now how to edit wrong entries, this doesn't happen anymore. Still, I would propose to ask the user whether he really wants to leave the current exercise (and maybe tell him how to get back), when he presses the back button.

I'll have to try it to see if it is "real time" or "after the fact. How do I get to the "saved set" if I'm still doing sets within the exercise?  If its "real time", keeps me in the same place in my sets within the exercise I'm doing that's fine...but, if I have to wait until after I finish the exercise, then go back and edit "set 3 of 8", I will probably forget which one I needed to change. Instant gratification works better than "fix it later" for me. Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob. It's real time, and you can edit your sets right then and there on the same page where you save them. Best, Carl.

OK, I tried editing the saved sets during the exercise, while doing sets, and before "finishing" the exercise. It works great, allows me to correct any mistakes in weight or reps. No need to any changes, thanks for the "how to"!

Anybody else not seeing a Back button?  I might be the only person using the iPhone SE but when I am in the app, I absolutely positively do not see any back button.  I wish there was because if I enter something wrong or some how get myself to the Home screen, it's like that current workout is lost to me.  I can re-select it but the workout in progress is gone.
