How to Plan a Workout for Later

Contents

Did you know that it’s possible to plan your workouts for later? Here’s how!

Plan a Single Workout

  1. Pull the calendar on your home screen down, so that you can see the monthly view.
  2. Tap the date where you want to plan a workout.
  3. Tap the + Plan workout button.
  4. Give the workout a name, and a description if you want to. You can also change the color of it by tapping the small square next to the workout.
  5. Plan the workout! The default inputs when you add a set will be weights and reps but it’s also possible to use some other features, like Retreive from log or % of 1RM (the latter is a premium function). Just tap on the three dots to the right of the set, and choose Weight to see all details and change the inputs of the sets.
  6. When you are happy with your planned workout, tap the checkmark in the upper right corner to save.
  7. When you have saved the workout, it will be shown on the chosen date in your calendar.
From the monthly view in your calendar, you’re able to pick a date where you want to plan a workout.
You can plan the sets in detail, like above. Or you can use the smart block feature “copy sets from last workout” which will make the app fetch what you did in that said exercise last.
Once saved, a small dot on that date in the calendar will let you know that you have an upcoming workout.
If you have any planned workouts for today, they will appear when you tap the plus sign as well.

When it’s time to do the workout, tap the plus sign in the bottom menu and pick the planned workout you’ve prepared for today. Tap Start workout and record it as a normal workout.

Bonus tip! If you miss a planned workout, it will appear as a small warning triangle on that date in the calendar. You can either start the workout (it will start on the same day you start it, you don’t need to manually move the date on beforehand), or delete it if you no longer want to complete it.

Schedule Your Program Workouts

It’s also possible to schedule your upcoming program workouts, if you prefer a visual overview of your week/month. Here’s how:

  1. Tap the program widget on your home screen, or under the plus sign in the bottom menu.
  2. Tap the three dots, and choose Schedule Workouts.
  3. Mark all days you want to perform your program workouts on. Tap Save when done.
  4. Done! You will now see that all chosen dates have small dots underneath them, indicating that you have a workout there.
If you schedule program workouts, you’ll always see a small calendar icon and which date your next workout is due. For me, my next program workout is scheduled for tomorrow.
Tap all dates you want to schedule the program workouts on. Tap an already chosen date to remove it from the schedule, or tap ‘clear’ if you want to remove the schedule completely. Remember to save when you’re done.

Good to know about scheduling program workouts:

  • When you look at the workouts in the calendar, the app will show which workout that will be on which day. This is, if you complete the workouts as planned. If you’ve scheduled a new program and chose to train Monday, Wednesday, Friday – the app will show you workout 1 on Monday, workout 2 on Wednesday and workout 3 on Friday. However, if you don’t make it to the gym on Wednesday, the app will show you workout 2 on Friday instead. (the same goes for if you record workout 3 on Thursday, then it will show workout 4 on Friday) To summarize, the app shows which workouts are next at this very moment. If your plans changes, you won’t have to reschedule the entire program, the app adapts to where you are.
  • If you miss a day, the app won’t tell you. Unlike the planned workouts, which will lead to a small warning triangle in the calendar if they’re being skipped, the scheduled program workouts just disappear. So if you get sick, you don’t have to go into the app and reschedule, you can just pick up from where you left when you’re back on your feet.
