Substitute one exercise for another in your workout or edit your workout
We have all had the experience of being at the gym and of not being able to move to our next exercise because someone else is using the equipment we need. You may want to just move on to the next exercise in your workout or sometimes you will want to add in a substitute exercise to your workout.
You can add in a new exercise to an existing workout by:
- Login to the app
- Swipe right to the Calendar or tap on the Calendar button (top)
- Tap on the workout to open it
- Tap on the three dots icon in the top right
- From the menu that appears, tap on "Edit this workout"
- From the menu on the bottom you can choose "Select" to delete an exercise
- Tap "Save" - this will update your workout AND/OR
- From the menu on the bottom you can choose "Insert" to add in an exercise
- Tap "Save" - this will update your workout with a new exercise
Move a workout to another date

Ending a workout
Once you have completed a workout and entered all your workout stats you have the option to tap "End" in the top right or tap "Close" in the top left.
You do not need to hit "End" to save the workout stats. Stats save automatically even if you tap on "Close".
How to enter workout notes
While you're in a workout, you can enter in notes. Tap the paper icon on the top right of the screen, and enter in your note. Tap "Save". Those notes can then be referenced later from the workout calendar, online.
Using the rest and interval timer
If rests have been added to the workout, tapping on the rest in the workout sequence will launch the timer to the specified amount of time a Trainer has set it for.
To launch the timer not in a workout sequence tap the stopwatch icon at the bottom right. The timer will automatically start counting down.
While the timer is running you will see a gear or cog icon to the right. Tap on this to set the countdown timer timing.
To stop the timer tap the icon again. Once the timer finishes, you will hear a chime (provided your phone is not set to silence or vibrate).
