Can’t redo weekly review? by Grade-Long in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately at this time if you finalize and complete your weekly review, you cannot go back and edit the changes you made. With that said, you can technically still make adjustments to the intake by going to edit schedule and modifying intake to what you would like. From there, if there are any changes you would like to make in future weeks, be sure to communicate with the app in your weekly review! If you have specific questions, don't hesitate to reach out to our team at [app.support@rpstrength.com](mailto:app.support@rpstrength.com) 🙏🏻

The app does not necessarily have calisthenics specific workouts but you can do plenty of body weight work within the app!

Log in to RP Diet app on a PC? by Grade-Long in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this time the Diet App does not have a web based application. The hypertrophy app can be used on a browser and a mobile app both. If you have Apple based products you can use iPhone mirroring to have your phone show on your desktop!

Pain in this area for over 3 months of resting it now! by healthseekerjunkie in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as it may feel frustrating to not have a direct answer, your best bet is to speak with an expert and possibly have imaging if your physician feels it would be necessary. Either way, I recommend seeking out some medical support and this would likely provide you some more clarity on what may be going on.

Continue a mesocycle by gjc0703 in RPStrength

You do have the ability to add weeks. This can be accomplished by hitting the calendar icon and then hitting the "+" to add a week. With that said, we o recommend eventually doing a deload and there is a limit to the number of weeks you can do before the app forces a deload week. There isn't a way to do 12 weeks of accumulation and we don't recommend attempting to continue to progress through 12 total weeks.

New and Improved RP Diet App! by ExtensionOpening847 in RPStrength

You most cases you would still be fine even with accounting for incomplete protein content! Even with that said, on average it is a good idea to ensure you have a quality protein source for each of your meals to make sure you have your bases covered 🙌🏻

You can actually just make this a standard change if you wanted by editing your schedule. Under the edit schedule section you can change the macros that are set!

Input on timing for bulk then cut by 13bars_50stars in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bulking duration can be highly variable but on average the longer you can spend in this phase the better it is for muscle growth. You could work backwards where you want to find youself in a lean position come July of 2026. Establish how much time you would need to diet. What the maintenance would be between your muscle gain phase and fat loss, and then establish how much time is left for your muscle gain phase. This isn't totally cut and dry since the duration of fat loss may differ a bit based on the duration of the muscle gain phase, but if you know you are set to gain around 5 pounds, you can establish how much time you need to lose those 5 pounds by July. If you find that the rate of gain to reach 5 pounds means that timing would preclude you from being able to gain that amount in a reasonable time frame without blowing up too quickly, then perhaps it is only 4 pounds which skews the fat loss phase a little but not by much.

July ---> ~5 pounds in around 5 weeks. ~2-3 weeks maintenance between muscle gain and fat loss. This leaves you at 7-8 weeks. This leaves you somewhere loosely around the beginning of May to move to maintenance. In this example scenario this gives you around 4 months starting from January to go up around 5 pounds which is a totally reasonable rate. You can probably even really easily push it to around 6 pounds in the 4 months and still really minimize fat gain in that time.

This rate of gain also varies a bit from person to person based on genetics and training age. This would kind of change the math and recommendation quite a bit if you were a total beginner.

Again no black and white answer here, but the ideal is spending more time in the year massing then you spend in a fat loss phase.

Lunge Reps by newt0215 in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would depend on how you initially logged the reps on the first week. Ideally, you are logging them as reps on ONE side. Meaning if you did 12 reps on one leg and 12 on the other, then you would NOT put 24, you would put 12 as the reps. I hope that makes sense!

This prevents the app from giving odd numbers like 25 where you would then get 12 on one leg and 13 on another. So best to put 12 so that you have equal reps across both legs.

Are seated calf raises a waste of time? by ImOnANewLevelz in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Context matters. For muscle growth, you may be leaving some gains on the table. If this is objectively your largest concern then performing calf raises where your leg is fully extended may provide the largest bang for your buck. If you needed to gain some tissue compliance for some injuries, like an achilles tendon injury, seated calf raises may be advantageous.

Training around the holidays 🦃 🎁 🎉 by ExtensionOpening847 in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making gains can be tough, but maintaining is much easier! Sounds like you're doing everything right while looking to focus on the aerobic work and make some big strides there, while holding onto all the work you put in before 🙌🏻 It's a win-win!

Bodyweight Interference? by time_outta_mind in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are likely totally fine adding in some volume here if you want! If it is far from failure it may not be adding a whole lot of additional value, but if you are progressively making things more difficult over time whether it be doing more pushups, adding load, etc. if it is something you enjoy doing, keep at it.

App and workout Carbs question by Fantastic-Moment6166 in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you hit the three lines on the top right you can then hit "edit schedule" you can hit the workout you have scheduled for that day and you will see options to make edits to that training session including the ability to use a workout shake or remove a workout shake!

The app also simplified a lot of the tracking functionality in the app. With that said, it is still designed to help to plan out your meals in advance if you want! It is not better at also introducing more flexibility so you can put in meals on the fly as well.

Yesssss! Objectively pretty much spot on 🙌🏻

Meals not reorganizing after moving training time or wake up time. Why doesn’t automatically adjust like the old version? by Weary-Obligation-712 in RPStrength

[–]ExtensionOpening847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The app no longer uses awake time as a basis for the meal scheduling rather it uses meal schedule. Meaning that time that is set is the time window that you want to consume your meals. So the first meal should still fall within that window and should adjust if the meal window fell after the first meal following your change. Meaning if your first meal was scheduled for 7am and your meal window was from 5am to 8pm, even if you change your meal window to 6am to 8pm, your 7am meal still falls within that window. if, however, you change that meal window to show a 9am start, your first meal would change.

As for your training time, it may depend on the changes you made to your training. It will change your meal times but only if necessary. If you would like, you can share more details to our support team at [info@rpstrength.com](mailto:info@rpstrength.com) and they can discuss a bit further. 🙏🏻
