Hi Dominique,

Thanks for reporting that issue. Indeed, you should be doing the variation that engages your abs the most. We're going to review and fix, and someone from the team will be in touch by email.

Best,

Carl

Hi Dominique,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience with the app suggesting a deload at what seems the wrong time. It can certainly be frustrating to see strength or volume go down. But it's important to understand that progress is not always linear, and that deloading may be the best course of action at times.

You can learn more at deloads at https://dr-muscle.com/deload. The app will recommend them when your performance has gone down or when it's stuck to prevent overtraining and injury.

Following the recommendation to deload by reducing reps and/or weight temporarily may help your body recover and come back stronger in the long run, even if it may seem counterintuitive initially. 

If the app suggests a deload but you feel like you could have lifted more, you can always cancel it. Just tap the alert icon on your first work set (that says deload) and tap Cancel deload. Further, you can also always make any exercise harder by tapping the three dots next to it and Challenge.

If you have more questions about the app or potential bugs to report, please get in touch at support@drmuscleapp.com. We try to keep this site for features requests only.


Thank you for choosing Dr. Muscle!

Hi guys,

Thanks for your honest feedback. I appreciate it, and I can confirm we're committed to enhancing the equipment customization feature to better meet your needs.

We are constantly working on improving the app, and we continue to release new updates every week (https://dr-muscle.com/timeline). Recently, we have focused on enhancing the cardio feature based on a suggestion that received about twice the votes as this one.

I get that detailed equipment choices are important to you. Balancing everyone's demands can be challenging, and we continue to prioritize implementing suggestions with the highest number of votes to benefit the majority of our users.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. I look forward to improving this feature for you.

Best,

Carl

Shawn, good news! I'm happy to say it's eay to skip an exercise in Dr. Muscle.


While you have your exercise open, scroll down and look at the bottom of its sets. You should see a Skip exercise button (bottom-right). Just tap it, and you'll be good to go!


I'm going to mark this as completed. Feel free to suggest and vote for more features. We truly appreciate it.

Hi Ismar​,

Thanks for taking the time to report that issue. I'd like to apologise for the incorrect response by our AI here.


To clarify, your 1RM is the maximum amount of weight you could lift for just one repetition. So, if you're able to deadlift 35 kg for say, 10 reps, your 1RM would be around 50 kg. Fewer reps, more weight. Makes sense?


When you dig into it, predicting your 1RM is quite hard. In fact, there are over a dozen formulas for doing so, and none is perfect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-repetition_maximum).


At Dr. Muscle, we use one we've developed ourselves. It's optimized for progress across a wide range of reps, as the evidence suggests that changing reps every workout leads to faster gains (learn more: https://dr-muscle.com/build-muscle-faster#1).

In the end, what truly matters is the progress you are making, even if we cannot accurately predict your true 1RM. By observing other lifters and the results they have achieved with our program, I am confident that you are moving in the right direction. Feel free to check out https://dr-muscle.com/reviews/ for more information and inspiration from other lifters. You got this 💪

By the way, if you notice more bugs, please continue to send them at support@drmuscleapp.com. I can see you've already reported a few, and that the team has already followed up with you on 3 of those. I can confirm we're making progress, and that you should hear back from us soon with updates. We do our best to keep this site for feature requests only.

Thank you so much for trusting us with your fitness,

Carl
