The numbers on Home

Workouts is every workout you have finished, since you started. Volume is the weight you have moved in all of them: each set’s load times its reps, added up. Warm-up sets are left out. A set you did not tick still counts if it has reps in it — the same rule that saves it, explained in the guide to your first workout.

Active weeks appears once you have two in a row: the number of weeks back to back, Monday to Sunday in your own time zone, with at least one finished workout. The week you are in does not break it until it is over. A line under it says how many of the last 12 weeks you trained in.

Weeks off do not have to cost you the streak. Weeks you mark with Pause training — in Settings, under Training — are skipped, and once every 90 days the app holds one missed week for you by itself.

Personal Records

Under Tools, then Personal Records. Timeline lists records as you set them; By exercise groups them, one exercise at a time. Records come in several kinds — heaviest weight, most reps, most work in a single set, an estimated one-rep max and more — and each is kept separately, so a session can set one without the others.

Only sets you ticked count, and warm-ups never do. Records are worked out when a finished workout reaches us, and again whenever you edit or delete a past one, which is why a record can disappear after you fix a typo.

Find your way around Analytics

1. Open Tools, then Analytics.
2. Choose a period at the top: one, three or six months, a year, or All time — everything since your first workout. Three months is where it starts. The arrows under the choice step back to earlier periods of the same length; All time has none.
3. Workouts, Total Volume and Per week, on average come first, and they are the period’s own: change the period and all three change with it.
4. Exercise Progress: pick an exercise, and the line shows the heaviest weight you logged in it in each session of the period. Under it are Starting, Current, Max and Gain — the first session’s figure, the latest one, the highest, and the difference between latest and first.
5. Workout Frequency shows how many workouts you did; the Week and Month switch under its heading groups them by week or by month. All time always groups by month.
6. Muscle Volume shows a body map and a list under it, from the muscle with the most sets to the fewest. A set counts as one set for each muscle the exercise works directly and half a set for each it works indirectly — hence the halves, and the subtitle: Sets per muscle: main muscle 1, assisting ½. Beside each total is its weekly rate, the figure to weigh against the usual 10–20 sets a week. The shading is relative to your busiest muscle in the period, so it compares your muscles with each other, not your month with somebody else’s.

Why a number can surprise you

Volume and records look at different sets. Volume counts every working set with reps, ticked or not; records count only the ticked ones. So a set the app filled in from last time, never done and never deleted, adds to your volume but can never set a record.

Bodyweight exercises count towards volume at your body mass times a fixed share for each movement, plus anything you added. For that the app needs your weight — a weigh-in on or before the workout’s date, or the weight on your profile. Without one, those sets add nothing to volume, which is how a week of calisthenics can show a volume of zero.

The How it works section of this site writes out the rules behind these numbers, on two pages: Volume and the muscle map, and Personal records.
