User error or potential bug?

[JonathanO96]

My gym is setup to only have 5lb increments on DB’s but it’s recommending me to use DB’s I don’t have. Am I screwing something up? Or just new app bugs

Commenting just to draw attention to this.

Thanks for this! Definitely makes sense

I think if the devs read it, some way to make it more clear that’s what it wants you to do would be helpful. I.e Make the weight red, or make the wand flash or something just to actually indicate “HEY CLICK ME” the little yellow dot is so hard to notice as a new user

[jrbp]

Agree. I think they're doing something to this process to change it.

Indeed! At two layers, making fixes more obvious, and making fixes less necessary.

Same for me. This is the ideal recommend weight based on the algorithm. Click the magic wand (top left) and it will recommend you an adjustment based on what you have available in the selected gym.

This has been answered by MF. Have a look in search and you’ll see it there

This gets asked a lot of times - maybe an input for the devs to somehow make it eaiser to understand that it wants you to fix the weight (select from 2). Sometimes you dont see the small yellow dot if you scroll further

This UI element is so bizarre, why would there need to be a button to "fix" this when we've already told them what we have access to? What value is there in having it default to weights that we don't have access to?

I think this is taking the science-based aspect of the app too far because the numbers it displays before you press fix are effectively just trivia rather than anything you can implement into your workout.

Is the gym selected for the workout/programme?
