the ability to add half reps (such as 7.5 reps) instead of only whole numbers, so users can track their workouts more accurately.
This feature would be very valuable because not every set in strength training ends with a full repetition. In many exercises, especially during high-intensity sets, drop sets, partial reps, or training close to muscular failure, athletes often complete only part of the final repetition. That “half rep” still represents real work, real fatigue, and real training stimulus, but currently it cannot be tracked accurately if the app only accepts whole numbers.
For example, if someone performs 7 full reps and then manages only half of the 8th rep before failure, logging 8 reps would be inaccurate and logging 7 reps would underestimate the effort. Allowing 7.5 reps would provide a much more realistic representation of performance.
This is especially important for users who train with progressive overload and closely monitor their strength progression over time. Small improvements matter. Being able to see progress from 7 reps to 7.5 reps and then to 8 reps gives better insight into performance trends and helps maintain motivation.
It would also improve training analysis, recovery tracking, and exercise programming, particularly for advanced lifters, bodybuilders, and athletes who rely on precise data rather than rough estimates.
Overall, adding support for half reps would make workout tracking significantly more accurate, realistic, and useful for serious training.
