Generally speaking (and for safety reasons), you would do more sets/reps. It is recommended to complete the entire recommendation first and add a set with more reps if you are able to complete the exercise with proper form. Please keep in mind that the goal is to not "max out" or completely fatigue after the first set as you'll most likely have more sets to go (additionally sets can catch up to you quickly).

Alternatively, if your second to last set is still too easy, you can increase weight slightly and finish the exercise at that weight.

If you do add more sets/reps/weight, the app will account for this in your recommendations for the next time you perform the exercise.

***Important Note

Please keep in mind that this is a general response and if you have a specific goal of lifting heavier weight for competitive purposes this advice might not pertain to you. For additional information or questions, feel free to reach out to Ask a Trainer program by sending an email to trainer@fitbod.me.

Yes! 

You can open and use Fitbod without being connected to the internet. Once you finish and log a workout, your workout data will be saved locally to your device. Once you are connected to the internet, the app will write your workout data to Fitbod's database for proper storage.

Important Note:

If you delete Fitbod from your device while your data is locally saved, that data might become deleted and will no longer be retrievable.

On our immediate roadmap, an option to create your own exercises isn’t something coming as we prefer to add these exercises ourselves. The reason being is that we give a value to each muscle group that is used in each exercise, and implement that into our algorithm. We like to keep this streamlined, whereas it might have a different relative value to you and another user. This would in turn make the algorithm relative and not necessarily accurate for the app. This isn't to say that it can't be or won't be done in the future.

For now, we ask that users who want exercises added, please send them to us by visiting our Request an Exercise page. You can also visit this If the requested exercises gain enough traction amongst the queue, we will add them into our program. 

In addition, we have received requests asking to implement activities like rock climbing, yoga, soccer, basketball, etc. This has been discussed amongst the Fitbod team and we'd love to integrate it into the app but it is a bit tricky from a quantitative standpoint since movements can be highly variable session-to-session and would hinder muscle recovery accuracy. Again, this isn't to say that it can't be or won't be done, but it is projected that will take some time.

*Important Note: We get A LOT of exercise requests so please keep in mind that we simply can't include ALL of the requests we receive. We do consider each one and track how often they are requested. When decisions are made with regards to new exercises, the Fitbod team considers safety first and overall usability by our users as a whole.

Single-leg or single arm exercises are known as unilateral exercises that should be performed on both sides.

For unilateral exercises, Fitbod will indicate how to properly log these. For instance, Dumbbell Lunge will display # of reps PER LEG and the amount of weight PER ARM (image below).

*Important Note: If you are using an Apple Watch, you won't see this configuration from the Fitbod watch app. This configuration will only display on the phone app.

The main differences between fitness experience levels are the available exercises and the rate of muscle recovery.

Here is a list of key points that, I believe, are good indications that you should move up your Fitness Experience setting:

• You have used your current fitness experience setting for at least a couple months
• Exercises in your workout are easy
• Exercises in your workout are boring
• You want more challenging movements in your workout
• Your muscle recovery state isn't recovering as fast as you feel

If you have met at least 4 of the 5 key points above, it is a good time to move up in Fitness Experience! (YAY!)

Currently, Fitbod is only compatible with the Apple Watch and Fitbit on iOS. Integrating with other devices and apps is on our roadmap for the future!

If you have a particular device or app request, please share your feedback by emailing us at feedback@fitbod.me.

Have a great idea that you would love to see in the app? We at Fitbod appreciate and are open to feature ideas and requests from our users!

Please feel free to email us your request at feedback@fitbod.me and put "Feature Request" as the subject.

***Important Note:

We get A LOT of requests and we do consider each one we receive, but please keep in mind that decisions made about what features are implemented into the app are based on request frequency and whether we believe it falls under Fitbod's mission.

Fitbod stores your body profile (if connected to Apple Health) and various types of workout data, including logged exercises, gym settings, workout duration, exercise sets, reps, and weight.
