    Default Reps and failure

    Shabu,
    Can reps be changed when a set of 5 reps is not completed? For example, squatting 3 sets of 5 is displayed in the app; how to enter:
    1st set was successful at 5 (this is a check mark is the radial button)
    2nd set failed at 4
    3rd set failed at 3

    Thank you,
    Bob H.

    Shabu,
    I'm with bjharrisonjr. Would you consider adding this on a future update, then?
    This would be a really useful feature; to be able to tell the app how many reps in a set one has completed/failed and, if deemed necessary, for it to calculate any adjustments for future sessions.

    Thank you for reading.

    I agree this would be a great feature.

    yep this is high up on the priority list now. Once cloud backup / restore of training log data is done, this will be the next thing worked on.

    Very good news, then.
    I was a bit worried; my posts were not showing up here nor was I getting the iOS updated (the app was updated three times in a row on the last two weeks); this was not your fault, I suppose.

    Thank you for the updates on the development and roadmap!

    yeah the ios was updated 3 times in the last 2 weeks because there were a couple of bugs that slipped through the cracks and I needed to fix them quickly.

    on this forum I have to approve posts before they show up which is why sometimes you don't see them for a couple of days.

    I would like to use the app but I am doing intermediate programming. You can't change rep range, #sets, or # of reps completed so it is worthless to me
