Upvote. Easy/medium are a bit confusing because you’re allowed to do more reps than suggested or lift heavier than suggested. By design, “easy” workouts are easy, so I naturally increase the weight/reps. But after a couple of weeks of doing so, easy workouts quickly become as hard as the hard workout. I would think easy should be, say, 1/2 of hard, and medium should be, say, 3/4 of hard.
I have the same issue. It’s a bit frustrating that my 58 or so week streak simply vanished. I did not miss a workout. It happened over the new year.
Another vote for this. I live in North America but often travel to places where weight is measured in kgs. It would be great if DrMuscle could simply display weight as "x kgs / y lbs". There would no longer be a need to choose between the two.
Same here. I usually zip through them and ignore the rest periods.
Thank you for your reply.
I wasn’t so much questioning the purpose of deloads, but instead the AI comments that follow. It seems weird to say that strength went down or that volume did not increase when recommending a deload.

I’ve been inputting my weight into the app a few times, but I find its answer to be a bit too simplistic. It tells me that I should be gaining X kgs per week. If it seems that I gained a little more, the app says “you gained fat!”. If it seems I gained a little less, it says “eat more!”. Given how I observe weight to fluctuate on a daily basis, it seems to me that the app should be analyzing trends over time, not punctual measurements. I may be wrong?! There are other apps that do this very well. Perhaps it would be good to integrate with such apps?

It may be good to have a variation or two from the drill sargent :-)

Agree. Currently, the app pulls the weight from Apple Health, but why not pull all relevant metrics, including body fat %, BMI, waist circumference, etc?
