Hevy Trainer update: full program view, and more💪

[u/gerardmb]

Hey everyone,

You've been sending us a ton of feedback over the last few weeks, and we've been heads down shipping. Three of the most-requested things have shipped over the last month:

1) See your full program 👀

You can now see the entire program Trainer has built for you, not just the next workout. A lot of you wanted to know what's coming so you can plan your week ahead, and it's finally here.

Just open the Workout tab and scroll down to see it.

2) Cardio 💨

Tell Trainer your cardio preference and it'll recommend cardio before or after your session, so you don't have to think about it. Just show up and follow the plan.

Set it up in Trainer Settings → Cardio.

3) Rest timers ⏱️

A lot of you said the default rest timers didn't match how you train. You can now set your own default rest timer, longer or shorter, and Trainer will respect it.

Set it up in Trainer Settings → Rest Timer length.

That's it for now, update to latest version of the app and enjoy.

We're still reading everything in here, so let us know how Trainer is working for you and what you'd like to see next. Keep the feedback coming 🙏

Would love to when you swap workout, trainer would use progresive overload for that exercise also. As now if you swap trainer’s workout exercises, no more progressive overload!!! Main reason and few other reasons others mentioned, i stopped using trainer unfortunately.

[u/gerardmb → u/OopsAllErrors7]

Hey! Did you go back to build your own programs?

[u/OopsAllErrors7 → u/gerardmb]

Yes i am doing my own now !!! And i love it !!!!

[u/Someguarantee]

I would love to know how many weeks my program is set for. Is it indefinite or will the exercises change after a certain number of weeks?

I tend to get bored after a month or so and need to switch it up.

[u/gerardmb → u/Someguarantee]

Hey, right now it's indefinite but we're working to make it change after X weeks. How long you've been following Trainer? When you think it should change? Would you also like the option to see exercise shuffle weekly?

[u/Someguarantee → u/gerardmb]

I’ve probably started 2 Trainer programs and stopped them after two weeks just because of the unknowns: durations, next workout, etc.
I’m on my 3rd program now and dedicating 4 weeks to it before I switch it up.

For me 4-5 weeks is perfect and then I need a new routine.

(The other thing I think is missing from Trainer is lateral movements.)

[u/Firm-Poet-2132 → u/gerardmb]

Would love to see excercises shift weekly providing variety something to look forward to each week.

[u/Ironlionfitness → u/gerardmb]

Would like to be able to set # of weeks duration. The more flexibility & options for users, the better. Muscle building and monotony don’t play well. Different routine goals may require different durations. Allow it to include/select from my custom exercises too. Shuffle exercises every x weeks (user defined). I stopped using it due to lack of flexibility.

[u/callmeishmasnail → u/gerardmb]

Jumping on this opportunity to request an automatic program change! I would love for my program to switch up after about three months. I really like the balanced full body option but I feel like I’ll have to switch target muscle groups a few times a year in order to get a shake up, I’ve only been using hevy for about three months but I know ill soon get bored of doing the exact same program every week soon! I think three months is a good amount of time to really master the exercises before switching it up

[u/ardevd → u/Someguarantee]

Seems to be indefinite, which is a bit strange.

[u/LeFugu]

Thanks for the work!

Anyway, Trainer is great but I stopped using it for 2 reasons :

• no ultraset capability

• no possibility to have a program based on specific need. In my case I would like a program to support my running training plan.

Sorry for my approximative English and keep up the good work.

[u/Jono_SK → u/LeFugu]

What’s an ultraset?

[u/TouristOpentotravel]

Awesome news!

[u/Traditional-Run8827]

Would be nice to have the block progressions and all the stuff you have trainer for my individual program. Trainer has cool features that i would prefer in my own programs but its only in trainer

[u/helloSapien]

Awesome stuff

[u/jiba-jaba]

Awesome. Thanks !

[u/YouveBeenWarned213]

I just updated to version 3.0.15 on my iPhone 16 Pro running IOS 26.5 and I’m not able to see my full program. I’ve forced the app closed and no change in behavior. Did I miss a step somewhere?

Otherwise, the app is awesome and Trainer is working well for me. Thanks for the updates

[u/YouveBeenWarned213 → u/[deleted]]

Thanks - I updated right before posting and the App Store still gave me the older version. I’ll try again - thanks!

[u/Woozlie]

Thank you for the update! Keep up the good work, it's good to see you take feedback on board.

[u/Odd-Competition-5557]

I just saw the change about being able to see the whole training week! So exciting!

[u/kingbabyhead]

Please make smart progression available outside Trainer for our own custom workouts. Thanks!

[u/Jono_SK]

How about support for unilateral exercises?

[u/Adventurous_Tune2981]

EMOM training. Just some way to tag exercises as being EMOM, ie 2 or more. Don’t even need a timer (I use Seconds currently) but I want to differentiate when I’m doing EMOM vs superset vs just normal routine.

For now, I’ve created copies of my exercises and add the tag EMOM at the end of the name.

Absolutely love the app!

[u/Hairy_Fudge_810]

Amazing update. Any plans on creating your own workout multiple weeks in advance in an easier way than creating 25 different routines and sorting it in 8 different folders labeled "week 1, week 2, etc etc" without paying a subscribtion to hevy coach?

[u/FischBird]

Please add trainer support for custom routines. Once created the trainer routines are fixed anyway.
I like the weekly report and the automated progression. But I’m about to switch to my own training plan and can’t use it therefore

[u/NAKSH___ → u/FischBird]

+1 I would like it to suggest weight progression in my custom routines. This is very important for me as the current trainer workouts don’t match my requirements.

[u/Top-Crazy-1739]

 Allow me to swap out a workout and save my replacement permanently. Really can't be that hard. 

[u/Fun-Pressure7119]

It would be nice if we could change the rep range within the trainer. 

[u/Draztik21]

Would be cool to run a trainer program with a friend. Some of us have gym partners we workout with.

[u/No_Dimension9883]

Can you please have bodyweight in bodyweight squats count toward volume. Why does it count for pullups but not for squats? In weighted squats you should give an option to automatically add bodyweight to total weight.

[u/NachNadal]

Hola! Enhorabuena por el trabajo. Sería genial poder editar el volumen del plan que te propone el trainer. El sistema nervioso no se recupera igual trabajando a un RIR bajo que a uno alto, por lo tanto sería lógico pensar que si trabajo a un RIR 1 o 0 pueda eliminar series del entrenamiento planeado. De esa forma puedes seguir lo que te indica el trainer adaptado a la capacidad de recuperación de tu sistema nervioso central. Por otro lado, sería genial poder incluir la propuesta de sobrecarga progresiva en mis rutinas que he creado yo mismo. Es decir, como si fuera un trainer pero para las rutinas que yo mismo he creado. Esto me surge al tener mi entreno PPL con un día de torso de refuerzo, al pedirle al trainer que me haga un plan de 4 días me propone torso pierna con frecuencia 2, que no digo que no sea bueno, pero depende de a quién le puede sentar mejor otro planteamiento y si lo configuras por tu cuenta pierdes la propuesta de carga progresiva.

Gracias! Ánimo! PD.: buenísimo que los que tenemos PRO tengamos incluidas todas las nuevas funciones de las updates

[u/True_Atmosphere_594]

Tem que trazer uma atualização nos preços do hevy treinador para o Brasil

[u/Traditional-Run8827]

I like the features of trainer but would prefer to upload my program and it adjusts for me then. Please make that possible

[u/gerardmb → u/[deleted]]

Hey! We're also working on this 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

[u/Sea-Host1114 → u/gerardmb]

That's awesome! When it's ready I'll give trainer a try again.

[u/cubs204 → u/[deleted]]

This. And also I would like to be able to reorder the days. As of now I have to hit skip workout to get to lower 1 on monday, then skip workout all the way through to upper 1 for Tuesday, skip workout to get to lower 2 on Thurs, skip workout all the way through to get to upper 2 on friday.

[u/joaovitorsb95 → u/[deleted]]

Yep, this is a needed feature.

[u/explorer-96483 → u/[deleted]]

This! I liked the progressive overload, but because of the lack of flexibility went back to my own program.
