The app suggests unavailable equipment

Ismar I 11 months ago • updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 7 months ago • 2

The app keeps suggesting "2kg", for example, for the barbell row exercise, even though under custom equipment, I have no 2kg listed. The closest is I have is 2.5kg.

This is infuriating during workouts, where, while I'm trying to do my best to complete my workout, I also have to "fight" the app to do the right thing.

While doing the exercise, I have corrected the weight fields for each set of reps to 2.5kg (from 2.0) to reflect that I'm using a 2.5kg plate because I don't have a 2kg weight available. Despite doing this in multiple workouts now, the app does not remember this for the next workout so I have to do this adjustment every single workout.

For the HIIT workout the app suggested no exercise in particular at all and by looking at the video instructions, it suggested I do 20min of Spinning (pointing to a 20min video for a stationary bike exercise). I don't even have a spinning bike nor did I ever tell the app that I did.

Every time Dr. Muscle has me do a plate weighted crunch it starts me off with no weight but then jumps to 20kg (!).

In an effort to improve on this exercise, I started doing plate weighted crunches with a 2.5kg plate, which is far more realistic. I don't think I could even get off the ground with a 20kg on my chest, yet Dr. Muscle keeps suggesting it.

So every time this exercise comes up, I have to manually tap the field containing "20" and change it to 2.5, and for the last set in the exercise I just have to "guess" and set it back to 0, like the first set.

No fun having to "fight the app" in the middle of a workout like this. The app should make my workout smooth and let me concentrate on my workout.
