Hi Seppo,

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

We try to keep this site for suggestions and feature requests, as a few hundred people receive a notification every time you post here. So, please send all future bug reports to support@drmuscleapp.com.

I'm going to make this as closed.

Thanks so much for choosing Dr. Muscle,

Carl

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.

Hi again Seppo,

Thanks for your suggestion. You can easily do cardio sessions like this:

• Open the app
• On your home page, scroll all the way down
• Tap Exercises (bottom left)
• Open any cardio exercise

To do a mobility session, you could start a workout and leave right after the mobility part. But you're correct that we could certainly create them as separate mobility workouts. We'll implement it when this gets more votes.

Best,

Carl

Hi Seppo,

Thanks for your suggestion.

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

So, you can already create variations for your leg presses. But as you guessed, progression for custom exercises is independent. I look forward to this getting more votes so we can tie them together as you suggested.

Best,

Carl

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your suggestion. This was completed some time ago. Warm-up sets are now marked as W and work sets start at 1. I'm going to mark this as completed.

Cheers,

Carl

Thanks for your suggestion! Looking forward to start working on it when it gets more votes. I the meantime, I wanted to point out there's evidence that "hypertrophic outcomes are similar when training with repetition durations ranging from 0.5 to 8 s."

This is making slow reps like that somewhat less attractive, in my opiniion.

Hey Will,

Thanks for reporting those issues.

We've found the cause, and it's related to iOS 18 public beta. Since it's still in beta, I'm afraid we don't fully support it yet. But I'm happy to say that we're on it, and that they should be resolved in 1-2 weeks in the beta version of our app.

At any rate, we'll definitely have full support once iOS 18 is officially released to the public around mid-September.

We try to keep this site for suggestions and feature requests. If you encounter more bugs, please email us at support@drmuscleapp.com directly, and we'll address them promptly.

Thanks for your support,

Carl

Hey Barry,

Thanks for your suggestion.

Until this gets more votes, I can confirm that the app will not change your calories drastically in a situation like that.

That's because it's using your trend weight, not daily weigh-ins to compute how many calories you need. Fortunately, your trend weight would barely be affected by a temporary change like that.

Hi Gianluca,

After a deload, the app ramps up the sets and the load through the following weeks. I hope this clarifies.

Best,

Carl
