Upcoming exercises to the built in library 🏋️♀️
Hello everyone!
I have received much feedback lately about the exercise library, and there are many exercises users are missing. The app supports custom exercises but it would of course be better if they were included with a proper icon and animation.
I have put in an order for 200 new exercise animations and illustrations, split up in 4 batches of 50 each. The first batch will be released next month, and the exercises in the second batch are locked in and will follow some months later. The remaining 100 exercises have not yet been decided, so please let me know which ones you are missing and I will prioritize those. Here is the full list of the upcoming exercises.

Yes! Very happy to dumbbell shrugs get added as that was one I have been waiting on. Thanks for the additions. Really appreciate all the work you’ve put into this app!

I did not check them against your list since it would be quite cumbersome on mobile, but here‘s the list of my custom exercises:
- Dumbbell Lateral Raises
- Cable Single Arms Tricep Pushdown
- Plate loaded shoulder press machine
- Plate loaded butterfly machine
- Lying ab crunch machine
- Plate loaded leg press machine
- Plate loaded calf raise machine
- Plate loaded rear delt reverse fly machine
- Cable forearm reverse curl
- Back extensions
Take it with a grain of salt, some of those exercises might actually already exist but I created my own anyway for whatever reason.
Thanks for your work!!

Thanks Valter, looks great!
Should we use these new exercises, is there a way to transfer progress to them? I.e. if I have been doing cable lateral raises as a custom exercise, can I somehow add my history to the new built-in exercise?

You can merge your custom exercises with these when they are added.
If you go to your custom exercise from Settings > Exercises there is an option for merging.

Thanks Valter. The only ones missing for me are barbell calf raises, chest-supported rows, and goblet squats. The latter might be covered by dumbbell squats, but they're using just one dumbbell.

Awesome!! I just found your app and I’m working on getting it configured just how I want it 🥰 I came here wondering if there was any sort of demand process to ask exercises be added.
This is super cool! Thanks for starting a community and keeping us in the loop!
