When you change a template it will change workouts that have already been completed.

July 24, 2023

July 4, 2023

v 4.14.1

- Fix bug where supplemental percentages would sometimes be set to 0% when adding exercise to a template.

June 29, 2023

v 4.14.0

- PR Board. On the Profile tab, you'll see a new data chart called PR board. This shows the highest weight you've lifted at each rep amount from 1-12 reps.

- Wilks score on the profile tab. This is a measure of strength relative to body weight. The app will also let you know after a workout if your Wilks score has increased.

- I've changed how the 'Reps for PR' number is calculated. It used to be based on your highest 1 Rep Max of all time. But after some time this number becomes unattainably high because of things like injuries, breaks, program changes, etc. All normal things in the life of a lifter. So, 'Reps for PR' is now 'Target Reps' and it's based on your highest estimate 1RM over your last 8-12ish completed exercises.

- When creating or editing an exercise, you can now choose an exercise type of Reps x Weight Assisted. This is for exercises like assisted pull-ups, assisted dips, etc.

June 19, 2023

v 4.12.0

- Create a single workout. Want to record a single one-off workout? Now you can! When you tap the "+" button on the Workout screen you\'ll see the option to create a single empty workout. Perfect for the times you want to record a quick workout without building a template.

- Override workout duration. If you perform half a workout, pause for a while, then perform the rest of the workout later in the day the app would calculate workout duration for the entire period including the break in the middle. This is obviously not ideal. Now you can choose to override the workout duration to something more accurate when you finish the workout.

- Band tracking. You can now track the bands you use for an exercise. The resistance amount of the band will be included in volume calculations. You can also edit an exercise to be "band assisted" and the volume calculation will be decreased accordingly.

- Body weight included in volume calculation. Your body weight is now included in volume calculations for "Body Weight" or "Weighted" exercises. This is useful for exercises like pull ups, dips, etc. Each exercise has a body weight percentage that you can adjust to suit your needs, e.g. if you want to count 50% of your body weight for push ups you can set the percentage to 50%.
