  1. This app should not be only limited to record lifting weights but should also have seprate options for recording cardio. Normally option is to count reps and weight but cardio should be recorded in time, speed, incline, weight carried, etc.

  2. option to disable rest time recorder. People like me don't use recorder and we also need time to set weights, and sometime other work, etc.

  3. increase exercise list

  4. I think the stats window can be also improved, more interpretation of data can be done

  5. some machines in my gym use kg (free weights) and some pounds (plate Machines). I have set current app to kgs then I have to everytime convert lbs to kg. It would be very good if both lbs and kgs are allowed to be used in app simultaneously. (Convert automatically if needed)

This are my suggestions as per a used, if this are practice and useful please impliment them

Thanks for the the suggestions @padmanabhkharat

  1. This app should not be only limited to record lifting weights but should also have seprate options for recording cardio. Normally option is to count reps and weight but cardio should be recorded in time, speed, incline, weight carried, etc.

This is highly requested and is being tracked by #502

2. option to disable rest time recorder. People like me don't use recorder and we also need time to set weights, and sometime other work, etc.

Interesting, yeah that should be easy enough to implement and would be a good first issue for anyone

3. increase exercise list

Currently the exercises are sourced from https://github.com/wrkout/exercises.json any exercises you think should be added should be added to that list

4. I think the stats window can be also improved, more interpretation of data can be done

Yeah very fair,. What would you like to track?

5. some machines in my gym use kg (free weights) and some pounds (plate Machines). I have set current app to kgs then I have to everytime convert lbs to kg. It would be very good if both lbs and kgs are allowed to be used in app simultaneously. (Convert automatically if needed)

This one is also requested by #310

  1. add or remove sets from exercise of a plan in between working out

I'm not sure I understand this one I'm afraid. If you mean during a workout, you simply edit the exercise and reduce/increase the sets:

If you are talking about editing a workout in the plan, you can also do this:

3. increase exercise list

Currently the exercises are sourced from https://github.com/wrkout/exercises.json any exercises you think should be added should be added to that list

I think the exercises should be reorganized by -

Equipments used-

Exercises-

Variations-

And some existing exercise attributes can be removed

  1. as the latest equipments can target not only just "shoulders" or "triceps" but they can even target the individual "delts" and "tricep heads". So we should not mark exercises by just mussles groups but also individual mussles

If this is possible by development side, then I can contribute all exercises data my self

G'day @padmanabhkharat since this request a few features have been implemented:

  1. It is now possible to track timed / cardio exercises
  2. Is it now possible to specify weights in lbs or kg on a per exercise level
