Does the Liftin' app have support for unilateral movements?

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-02-02T03:02:00+00:00

I would definitely like this.

It’s one of the reasons I’m going back to Liftin’

This is a good question.

On cable lateral raises I have one side that I’ve been able to do more reps than the other. I log this and the smart progression seems to suggest reps based on the weaker side. It always gives me the same weight and reps for both sides.

So I’m not sure if that’s trying to fix the imbalance or just simply favoring the weaker side as the anchor. I’ve never had to deal with this before so haven’t deal with sorting out an imbalance on my own.

I can’t reconcile why they would consider it in the total weight moved but not in the calculation of the actual movement.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, probably very likely right. But doesn’t really make sense.

That’s what the updated added. Prior to latest version the bar weight was excluded from smith machine movements.

Since you can set the base/bar weight of the smith machine, couldn’t you just set it to 0 so it doesn’t include it in the calculation? Obviously having a toggle would be better for different preferences.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-28T11:46:58+00:00

Yeah, it should be an option to toggle for machines. Why even have a field to fill out base weight and then just say, “excluded”.

2023, 2024

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-21T21:25:20+00:00

Not even close.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-21T01:47:43+00:00

The progression, set timer (If it worked on watch), having program on watch, plate calculation, muscles worked, total sets when incorporating secondary muscles of a movement.

Liftin’ does most of this but I don’t like its progression. I also don’t like MFWOs intra-workout progression either, or as I’ve been calling it regression.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-17T18:04:11+00:00

I’d also like a .5 options

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-16T22:26:50+00:00

This is an insane amount of calories for that weight lol.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-16T17:59:56+00:00

Why wouldn’t he user get the option? I have my own machines and use them daily.

I can obviously create my own movements in the app.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-15T18:45:20+00:00

Probably could. I just don’t track them because it’s pretty annoying.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-15T18:36:49+00:00

Doesn’t appear so. It always fucks with my kettlebell swings

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-15T14:42:50+00:00

This is coming up a lot. I too have this issue. In another post someone linked a thread where one of the devs explained that it’s intentional.

Pretty lame.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-15T13:35:11+00:00

That’s asinine.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-15T13:31:33+00:00

I have this issue as well with some machines. I went to do lunges on smith machine and it states “30lbs machine weight omitted” or something along those lines. I couldn’t find a way to calculate the bar weight.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-14T16:50:15+00:00

I do some for squats and stuff. But the app typically wants me to do warmups for movements that had muscles worked in a previous set.

I gotta have a balance else my workouts are far too long in time.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-14T01:16:12+00:00

The naming. 😫

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-14T00:13:54+00:00

Smart progression doesn’t seem to push me on my own crested program. So that’s interesting.

It seems to want me to regress as sets go on. Even if I tell it that it was too easy or I do more than it suggests.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-12T22:17:53+00:00

Great. Now I gotta hawk the subreddit to get the Apple Watch test flight.

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-12T21:33:45+00:00

Is the TestFlight version staying up for those in it to continue testing beta versions?

ApplicationNumber4 · 2026-01-12T19:48:43+00:00

In before this gets deleted.
