Thanks for voting for this suggestion: it's live!


You can now adjust your bar weight by 0.5 kg or 1 lb increments in the plate calculator, allowing you to work with bars of any weight.


Pumped? Now would be a good time to vote for our next features at https://muscle.userecho.com/.


Thanks again for your support,

Hi guys,

You are correct: we have hundreds of exercises in the app, and they don't all have videos because that would make the app quite a hefty download. You can, however, tap "..." and "Video instructions" next to all exercises to learn more.

I can see this is getting more and more votes. We'll be happy to look into ways to fit more videos into the app (perhaps at a smaller size) when this becomes the top-requested feature.

Thanks for your feedback!

Hi again Seppe,

Nick is correct -- in this case, you could simply customize your increments for that exercise under Exercise settings (tap "..." next to the exercise to access).

In many cases, the app dynamically adjusts your weights during your sets, so I'm not sure that letting you change them before you start would turn into a smooth experience. Better try customizing your increments instead. If you have more questions, please email us at support@drmuscleapp.com.


I'm going to leave this open in case more people want to vote for it.


All the best,


Carl

Hey Seppe,

To add warm-up sets, just tap "..." next to any exercise and Exercise settings. Then toggle on Use custom warm-ups, and you'll be good to go!

You can also choose to have more warm-up sets for all your exercises in your global settings (bottom bar).

As a reminder, dozens of people get an email every time you make a suggestion here. So if you have any questions about the app, please drop us a note at support@drmuscleapp.com instead.

I'm going to mark this as completed for now.

Thank you,

Carl

Hi Seppo,

Thanks for submitting that suggestion.

On your first work set of any exercise, you should see by how much your 1RM will go up or down depending on your chosen reps and weights. If you change those manually, you'll notice the 1RM change as well.

Let us know if you had something else in mind!

Best,


Carl

Hello Seppo,

Thanks for your suggestion. Did you know you can already reorder exercises during your workouts? Here's how:


Open any workout

Tap the pen icon (top-right)

Tap Continue

Reorder your exercises as you please


I'm going to keep this open in case it gets more votes for a smoother integration during workouts, and your other comments as well.


Thank you so much for choosing Dr. Muscle,

Hi Seppo,

Thanks for reporting that issue. We're on it, and someone from the team will follow up over email.

I'm going to make this as closed.

Thanks so much for choosing Dr. Muscle,

Hi Eduardo,

Thanks for your suggestion. I've added it to our roadmap. In the meantime, it's easy to add any number of custom exercises to your account. Here's how:

  • Open the app
  • On your home page, scroll all the way down
  • Tap Exercises (bottom left)
  • Tap the big plus button at the bottom right corner

And you'll be good to go!

Thanks so much for your support,


Carl

Hi Kamilla,

Thanks for your suggestion. I'd be happy to add workouts with different exercises to the app when this gets more votes. But please keep in mind that this might actually slow down your progress (learn more: https://dr-muscle.com/change-routine-exercises).

I understand that changing exercises often can be more fun, so in the meantime, if you want to go that route, you'll find more varied workouts in the PPL and Muscle Split programs. To change program and try them out, do this:

1. Tap the Settings icon on the bottom bar
2. Tap "Change Program"
3. Tap "Workouts"
4. Tap "Gym" or "Home gym"

Thanks again for your suggestion, and for choosing Dr. Muscle.
