Resume Workout

Marc David 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 4

There are several times when I've been in the middle of a workout and either the app crashes (rare) or somehow I've navigated away from the current screen elsewhere and am unable to get back into that workout.  

I'd like a resume workout feature.  It knows that I started a workout and haven't yet saved.  If I click Resume, it will get me back to the most recent exercise and saved set.

Answer

Answer

Exercises you have already finished (saved) show a green checkmark next to them. That way, you know. Checkmarks don't disappear until you "Finish and save" and workout (bottom button).

Hi Marc,

You can resume the workout you're on if it's part of your program. Here's how:

Open app

Home screen

Start today's workout (bottom button)

Save a few sets / exercises, but don't tap "finish and save workout"

Navigate away

Back to home page

Tap the same button for today's workout


Voilà! You're back to your workout. Does that work for what you're trying to accomplish?

I thought that would work but as I've seen in the past...  there's no indication of where you left off.  If you select an exercise you just did thinking I'll finishing up that set, it essentially gives you a new workout for that exercise with higher weight and such.  

Maybe it would work if you knew where you left off and just moved to the next exercise.  But it doesn't know what you did before.

However, it's reflected in the logs so essentially there is a record.

I've seen workouts that I start and it's already got a green checkmark next to it.  But it's an entirely different week.

If you start the Bench Press.. and navigate away.  When you get back to the home page.  You start that workout and you want to finish the bench press but it gives you new numbers.  It never finished the that exercise per se but it's ready to give you new numbers.

I'd still like the ability to add an exercise on the fly.  After the bench press.. instead of Superset.. .I could just say Add Exercise.. and it would pop in Dumbell Flyes or whatever I pick.  After that exercise is done.  It takes me to the new in the structured workout.
