    Default Chin up weights

    Can someone explain to me the chin up weight settings in the app? Am I supposed to put my bodyweight if I am doing unassisted chinups? For assisted chinups what weight are we supposed to put as the working weight in the app? I am confused. Apologies if this has been addressed already. I tried searching through the forums with the search tool and did not find the answers I was looking for.

    You're supposed to put any additional weight plates as the weight. eg if your bodyweight is 200 and you have 20lbs extra plates you should put 20.

    We don't really support assisted chinups, just keep them in the notes if you can't do a single bodyweight chinup
