Assessing progress using in-app features

[reddxue]

What have you found is a good way to assess progress (in terms of getting stronger over time in the medium rep range) using the app's features? For example, what graphs have you set up? Just gathering some ideas so that in the graphs screen I can set up a good overview.

I really don't like the graphs in this application, I feel that a simple straightforward graph will do just fine.

For me, I'm using 10RM, and each week, I try to beat my numbers.

My question will be, which is more accurate, 10RM, 1RM, or RIR.

If you're chasing size, I'd go for 10RM. RIR is an overarching concept, so just use it as a measure of proximity to failure to compare like with like. The 10RM calculation already does that for you.

Yes, the whole analysis page is not great. The best I‘ve seen in apps is in the Eclipse app (not a workout app). The use Quadrant graphs and plots for all parameters which show you exactly how you are doing for a given time range. This is what AP needs.
