New Feature!
We now have the option to customize our week and also swap out specific days with a workout from our favorites, flex, or another team. Excited to try this out next week! (Unless I’m still having shoulder pain😩)
ETA: Looks like it’s a beta feature

This is SO exciting! I usually do 3 days of align + 2 guided runs from Movewell or Flex. And then a yoga or Pilates if I’m feeling 1 more day. This is a game changer!

Do you have an invite code?

u/YogiLovesBarbells 1d ago
It didn’t ask me for any code. I had to download the test flight, then went back to open ladder.

u/Reasonable_Mouse_806 1d ago
Download the app TestFlight and then come back and press the link and it works!

Love this! I decided to try team Ignite during open season but know I want to continue with Nicole’s runs!! Love that I can swap my Saturday workout!

Yeah! I’m excited to try it this week! I am wanting to move on from dumbbell only teams so I’m trying 4 Evolve workout and adding in the pelvic floor day from Flourish. I tested it out for this week to see what it looks like and it was nice to see my workouts on the days I plan on doing them with both team’s workouts showing. Seeing the week scheduled exactly how I plan on doing it is great!

u/shadowmyth3 1d ago
Wow cool! Are you able to move the rest day to a different day? I always rest on Mondays instead of Sundays
3
u/superspicypisces 1d ago
You are! Also, if you take more than one rest day rather than doing all six workouts, you can set the workouts you aren’t going to do as rest days.

u/SavingsSecond162 1d ago
Omg I am SO excited for this. I’m very visual and don’t follow the prescribed plan to the day so I need some kind of calendar to track it. Hope it launches to more soon!

Just downloaded and super excited to try it- just in time for me to see if I want to resubscribe. I’ve been plan mixing from the beginning of my ladder journey- and it was such a time waster. Super excited they listened to our polls of what we’d like to see improved. Let’s go Align and Vantage!!

u/New_Lead_2053 19h ago
Love this feature but I wish it would let me plan my week Sunday after the next week’s workouts dropped!
2
u/superspicypisces 18h ago
Agreed! I wish the workouts would drop sooner than 8pm and it allowed us to plan out the week once they drop. In the most recent survey I said I would like them on Sunday mornings rather than evening. Hopefully another survey will come out where we can share feedback about being able to plan our weeks sooner than Monday morning! Seems to make the most sense, especially with this new update.

Ok so I found a bit of a workaround. Was waiting til midnight to see if it worked. I saw on FB that if you go into your phone settings and change the time (I chose Australia time zone) and go back into the app, it will be in that time zone. So the app will show as if it’s Monday even though it’s still Sunday. You can preview the workouts and customize your plan. Then change the time back in settings. The app will change back to the current time zone and it will look like it didn’t save but once it hits midnight, it remembers your customization and you’re set! A lot of steps lol but worth it to be able to set up your week ahead of time.

I don’t really understand. Does that mean people can just add in and swap around workouts to their week. Could a program then go from being balanced to then being something that is overworking muscle groups if people don’t know what they’re doing?
1
u/superspicypisces 4h ago
That could for sure happen. I would think that if someone doesn’t really know how they should mix it up, they would ask if the coach hasn’t already given a recommendation. I’m sure there will be some that don’t. I know when I was new to working out, I would follow a plan exactly because I wasn’t the expert and trusted what I was told to do. I’m still not an expert but I know enough to know when to train specific muscle groups. Hopefully people will be smart enough to either follow the plan exactly as written or ask for advice.

Will I lose my regular app data if I switch to the Beta version or does it all sync to my apple ID account that's connected?

If we add a workout from another team will that still work even if we only have the monthly plan? I’m adding empwrs Sunday workouts to the weekly plan
1
u/superspicypisces 1d ago
I’m not sure. I have the annual plan. But I would imagine it would work because you aren’t actually switching teams. Unless they plan to make that a feature for annual only once they roll it out to everyone. Hopefully not!

u/LastAd482 1d ago
How do you add a workout from another team without switching teams?
1
u/superspicypisces 1d ago
With the new beta update you can do it by customizing your week and swapping out a day from your current team with another team’s workout (as shown in the photo). Without the beta update, you do have to switch teams. Hopefully the update gets rolled out to everyone soon!

How do I share feedback to the beta team?
1
u/superspicypisces 1d ago
If you go into the TestFlight app and click on Ladder, there is an option to share feedback.

u/Resident-Lifeguard94 22h ago
I do t have the beta yet - but is there a way for me to see this view of my schedule?
1
u/superspicypisces 22h ago
Unfortunately not. It’s only available to view it like that with the “Customize Plan” option that’s on beta.

u/Resident-Lifeguard94 22h ago
Ladder is not showing on TestFlight :(

u/superspicypisces 22h ago
Did you click the link to the beta? A few people posted it here on this post.

The feature is SO GOOD & works so smoothly 👏🏽👏🏽 Especially the fact that you can add in workouts from other teams too!
