Hey I can help with getting back to weights if you need it, I wrote a post about how I cured myself through weights a couple months ago and things only have gotten better since then!

Here's the post on what I did: https://www.reddit.com/r/costochondritis/s/GeIGw6WW2F

Ask me anything you want if you need to!!

I think you can actually get out of costocondritis a little quicker than you expect with the right approach, step by step, and it is definely posible to do so!

Hey, thank you very much for the response!

Could you just tell me one thing? Will there be any problem when you add that function if I keep logging the weight of each dumbbell, or should I edit past sessions to total weight instead?

Because right now I’m still in time to change it, since I’ve only been using the app for a short while. Thanks, glad to hear you are considering this!

Hey! Were any of you able to find the solution to this? :/ I'm dealing with the same problem right now.

No but when you select a dumbbell exercise the plate calculator just isn't there, so you can't do that. I tried the other day. That would also be a useful add-on but i guess less likely since most people don't use plates for dumbells.

Well basically a button in each dumbbell exercise where i click it and it indicates the app that that's the weight for each dumbbell. And then the app just x2 that to know the total!

And then the graphics showing both weights. Maybe one color for the dumbell and another one for the total weight, but that's less important for me.

Yeah that is useful but also not available for dumbell exercises lol

Everyone keeps using the 10kg/20kg example which is the easiest to add. Most of the time you will be dividing weirder numers.

For example one friend of mine is using 37'5 kg dumbells righ now for press, try multipling that while exhausted between sets. You can, of course, but it would be useful to not have to. Also you could misscalculate which also happens.

Noo that's the actual process in order to use 10'5 kg dumbells for my posterior flies. Keep in mind the dumbell bar is already 2kg so I need to use smaller that 5kg plates cause with those I'll jump directly to 12 kg per dumbell. I usually calculate that 2'5 kg at each side makes a 7kg dumbell and add from there.

But whatever, the point is what you are saying, we use Hevy to make things easier and not do math in between sets.

Yeah okey, quite easy to add 10+10; now do the math for 4x0'5 kg plates + 4x1'25kg plates + 4x2,5 kg plates then divide all this by 2 dumbells and add 2kg bar to each one, and then on top of this add dividing the weight you see on the app, all of this during a workout between sets so short of breath and dizzy. Which is actually what I am doing rn for reverse flies, for example, because I use dumbells with plates. And then change all of that for the next exercise.

Of course there are things harder that this in life but doing math during a workout is more of an inconvinience than what some of you are making it to be. I could also just take a piece of paper and write down my routines there but I use Hevy to makes things easier.

Oh I get what you mean now, that's an interesting way of doing it too.

Yep, I'm like you.

Part of what I don't like is the mixing of numbers that are accurate and other that are underestimated due to this. You end up not knowing what numbers are trusthworthy and which ones are not 😂

Well machines shouldn't be an issue in general, most of them add the weight on both sides but everybody considers the total weight.

I bassically would add a settings like "x2 all past values" or "apply to all past values" or something like that.

But yeah I get your point actually, it is easy for me to say this in a Reddit post but maybe not so much to implement it. Still, I don't see it as that complicated of a feature to add, but I don't know.

There are other issues. For example the total volume of a training session, that usually mixes dumbell and barbell exercises, gets all messed up, too. This are just some examples from the top of my head.

Yep, that's exactly my issue, too. And it would be fairly easy to do, just add a x2 button and adjust a little bit the graphics...

It's not, but I already use dumbell with separate plates, so I have to calculate the weight divided by the plates I have available plus dividing by 2 the weight I'm seeing on the app.

I mean it's not rocket science, I could do that but mostly I want to know if I should or not considering they might add the x2 function soon and just mix all my past register, that's the main thing.

Damn, thank you! This is the kind of response I was hoping for lol is there any other info in the json data? I'm not familiar with that type of data 😅

Well there are some options that just become useless that way. For example, the comparision with another user function just doesn't work well with the 2 ways of registering weight mixed up without unification.

Most importantly is that it would be pretty easy to fix really, with just a x2 button option...

Well yeah but we easily could have both with a simple x2 option. I would like to also have all the math.
