We've begun working on a similar feature. Please vote here for your equipment at home: https://muscle.userecho.com/communities/1/topics/175-select-your-available-equipment-at-home
I'm marking this one as completed to remove the duplicate.
Hey guys!
Happy to say we've started working on that feature. Under Settings > Equipment, you'll see new toggles. The "I have a pulley" toggle works (you won't get pulley exercises if you toggle it off). We're working on the other ones. Which customizations would you like to see first?
Via user Deniz Kiral:
1. Pullup
2. Dips (tied)
3. Glute Ham
4. Rings
5. Leg Extension & leg curls
Also, happy to say that Barrett's suggestion above has already been implemented (when you swap an exercise, you now see suggested exercises for the same body part).
Cheers,
Carl
Thanks for the suggestion guys.
Until this gets more votes and we implement a moreelegant solution, here's how you can do this inside the app:
Create a custom exercise
Set it to "Bodyweight"
1 rep = 1 second
So, for example, if the app tells you to do 40 reps of plank, do it for 40 seconds.
Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's done! You'll find suggested exercises for the same body part the next time you swap an exercise during a workout (see image for a chest exercise).
If you're on Android, you can update now. If you're on iPhone, you'll have to wait 2-3 days for Apple to approve it. To update:
- Open the store app on your phone
- Search for Dr. Muscle
- Tap update
Now would be a great time to suggest and vote for our next feature. If you'd like to do that, please visit: https://muscle.userecho.com/communities/1-submit-your-feedback/topics#.
Really appreciate your support and advice. Thanks!

PS. With our next update (in about 2 weeks), you'll also be able to see exercises grouped by body part everywhere in the app.

Thanks for voting for this feature -- it's done! When you create your account, the app will now ask for your age and give you a program with fewer workout days or even easy workouts based on your answer.
If you're already using the app and your progress is slow, I would recommend you consider:
- Getting on a split body program if you're older than 30
- Getting on a level 6 program if you're older than 50
You may recover better (or worse) than other people your age, so those guidelines may not apply to you. If you've been making good progress on your current program, I'd stick to it.
If you're on Android, you can update now. If you're on iPhone, you'll have to wait 2-3 days for Apple to approve it. To update:

Previously, you could customize reps at the global and exercise levels. Now, you can also customize reps at the workout level. To do that, tap "..." and "more" next to any workout.

Great suggestions! I've turned this one into its own feature request, so other customers can vote for it (we implement suggestions with the most votes first). Thx!

Hey Cristian,
The ideas here is this:
"Would be very nice to be able to tell the app what equipment you have and let it recommend a workout based on the most effective exercises you can do with your equipment."
So, I'm thinking more along the lines of:
Chin-up bar
Pulley
Etc.
