Need to see a and b workouts

Matthew V 3 weeks ago • updated 2 weeks ago • 4

I am doing a push/pull/legs split with an A and B (6 days). 


I need a way to see what exercises are selected for the A and B workouts for the week, so if I need to make a exercise swap I am not selecting a duplicate exercise. 

For example, in my push A workout it has selected a standing military press. My gym only has a smith machine, DB, and a shoulder machine. I swapped the standing military press for a DB press, but if my push B workout already has DB shoulder work, then the workout loses some variance. 

Currently, I am unable to check the other workout to compare. If the Ai will take that into account, then it is no problem, but if it is not smart enough to adjust the A and B workouts, then that could be a problem.

Hi guys! 

Nick, thanks for chiming in.

Matthew, Nick is right on point. And you're right about the swap icon, I look forward to us updating it. I was thinking of actually having a small label next to the exercise's name, with "Swap". Since it's not that long of a word. You mention it doesn't look like a substitution icon. Could you give us an example of an icon you'd like to see?

Thanks so much for choosing Dr. Muscle,

A quick tip: if you go to the calendar at the bottom of the home page, you can check what’s next in the following days. At any rate, a, b and c programs have always the same exercises and there’s no need to plan ahead every single week

Thank you Nick. I had not found that feature before. That is exactly what I was looking for. Now that I can look ahead, I can see that I made some substitutions that do not make sense. I also now understand what the circle-looking icon is next to the exercise name. It looked like a reload icon, not a substitution icon.

Thanks Carl.  I think I was wrong about the icon.  I did a quick search for both "substitution icon" and "reload icon".  They are similar with the reload icon having one arrowhead instead of two.  So probably not a big issue.  Maybe try doing the word swap with the icon behind it.  Similar to this but more compact so it would fit.
