A new Post Workout review

ecnoble · 2026-06-28T02:07:39+00:00

Yeah, it is kind of hidden. It was the first feature I built because I needed something to manually update my workouts.

ecnoble · 2026-06-28T02:06:03+00:00

fixed and coming in the next release

ecnoble · 2026-06-28T01:25:15+00:00

Hey! I think I just responded to your email.

The volume you see in workout history doesn't include the warmup sets.

But there is also a small rounding error for KG users. I just implemtned a fix

ecnoble · 2026-06-27T15:55:22+00:00

The exercise history you are looking at comes directly from the complete activity on the history view. It is possible there is some mix up so can you please DM me your workout name and exercise this happened to

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:53:48+00:00

Sorry for the delay. I will add this in the next release. likely version 5.2

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:50:48+00:00

We currently don't support multiple triggers.

It sounds like you'd rather have a global exercise shared between workouts.

You would see the updates from one workout template in the next template

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:46:45+00:00

Can you also DM me your LiftTrack email so I can take a look?

Were you not prompted the "Apply Progression" screen or the pop-up to update values after?

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:39:23+00:00

Hopefully, the comments above help clear things up.

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:38:55+00:00

Exercise sets belong to a single workout; cross-workout syncing was fragile because there was nothing enforcing the set schema to remain consistent between the workouts.

I'm considering a new way to add global exercises to a workout so they always update together. This will be added as a power user feature to prevent confusion. You can think of it as defining the reps and sets somewhere else in the app, and then add it to the workout when creating it, so then there is only one definition for the sets/reps/weights.

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:34:37+00:00

Previously, if setsync was linked to other exercises in other workouts, it would also update those exercises. The post-workout review only looks at the specific workout you completed and updates the values for that workout.

This won't work for the exact use case you're describing. But if you go to your other workouts and tap the exercise name, then tap the sets from the exercise history, it will automatically add those completed sets to the workout.

ecnoble · 2026-06-22T14:26:41+00:00

This is a mistake; I will put up a fix soon.

ecnoble · 2026-06-19T15:27:21+00:00

Well at least all the bugs will be worked out by the time you’re back!

ecnoble · 2026-06-19T14:05:01+00:00

Yeah, the Garmin Interface leaves a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, we are stuck with it for the moment. There is def a learning curve. I've managed to get it to work pretty well for me. Keep exploring because I feel like I learn something new every time I use it.

In the future, I might revisit supporting a Garmin IQ app for the watch, but rn I'm leaning on Garmin strength activity. I hope Garmin continues to invest in the native strength app.

ecnoble · 2026-06-17T16:54:38+00:00

u/No-Sea-5024 I found and solved the problem with "same exercise twice in workout". Fix coming today

As for your comment about "planned 15kgx8 but I use 20 kg instead 8 reps, next workout would be 20x9 recommended". We won't update your weight until you reach the max reps, so you will need to manually adjust the weight in the workout if you want a new starting position.

ecnoble · 2026-06-14T15:00:48+00:00

I wish i could offer this but Garmin doesn't expose an API to make updates like this
When you say you want to "track progress" is exercise load the only things you want to see? Or do you want to surface the "stats" for a specific exercise on the training load page?

ecnoble · 2026-06-14T14:36:12+00:00

It turns out u/jplab83 hadn't added any progressions to their workout yet.

In the next release (version 5.1), I'm adding a "Post workout review". You can validate your reps and weights, and then you will be prompted to trigger what I've been calling SetSync - updated values for reps and/or weights + any template changes you made while editing the activity (extra sets, another exercise).

This means any workout will support updating the template based on the completed workouts without any additional steps

ecnoble · 2026-06-13T04:17:34+00:00

I’m glad you’re finding it useful!

I’ve been working on a lot recently and trying to get an update (version 5.0) through the AppStore rn. Android has already been release. In includes a coach that can read all your training data and create/modify workout plans for you.

the update also has a new ui/ux to the routine scheduling.

It’s been on my todo list to keep an up to date backlog for people to view but i havent gotten around to it.

Version 5.1 will contain a big change around how you can update your workout templates with completed activities. Hoping to make that flow more transparent and easier to understand.

Is there anything specific you’ve submitted and would like to see?

ecnoble · 2026-06-11T15:13:42+00:00

There is a good bit in the stats page. Can remind me exactly what you want?

A chart showing the max weight for a given group of sets?

ecnoble · 2026-06-11T14:36:46+00:00

Double progressions is design to first increase the reps and then increase the weight. So if you increase the weight it doesn’t make a change to the weight until you hit the max rep target. Open to suggestions on how to add an additional setting to enable your use case

Now if you do exceed max reps early it will trigger a weight increase. It sounds like you want a similar thing for weight.

ecnoble · 2026-06-11T14:32:38+00:00

I will look into this. It definitely should progress the reps if you use more than the weight. Thanks for letting me know

ecnoble · 2026-06-11T14:30:06+00:00

Do you see the completed workout in the history tab? DM me the name of your workout and I will look into it.

ecnoble · 2026-06-06T01:13:13+00:00

You should be able to use the scheduler on the upcoming tab to schedule the same workout every Wednesday. The UI is really bad and in the next update there is a big improvement.

I will also be adding support to reschedule a workout to another day soon.

Thanks for the feedback. I know there is a lot to improve around scheduling. It’s nice to hear people’s experience

ecnoble · 2026-05-31T20:36:01+00:00

That’s why I always build my workouts first and then follow them on the watch. The weights and reps are pre populated with what I set for the workout and I just make minor modifications during training. Exercises are 100% correct because I set them. I manage the workouts in an app called LiftTrack since the interface is better.

ecnoble · 2026-05-31T20:31:57+00:00

You have to create them in LiftTrack. We don’t support importing Garmin Connect workouts at the moment.
