Improved and more efficient program and workout builder
Building a program seems straightforward until you have to construct one that spans 20 weeks with multiple phases and 80 different workouts.
And it becomes even tougher when you have to create 20 of these programs.
That's why the program creation system needs to become more intuitive and programmable to enable faster program creation.
Here are the features I propose:
1) The ability to create templates with the basic information that most programs have, thus avoiding the need to write "Week 01 - Day 1, Week 02 - Day 2, Week 20 - Day 3," etc., 20 times.
In addition…

Exercises based on the percentage of the 1rm with an internal calculator that updates all weights in a program based on that percentage
Programs made by professionals are usually done in an Excel sheet; these programs are mostly based on the percentage of 1RM. In the Excel sheets, a cell can be created to input the 1RM of any exercise to automatically calculate the weight to be used based on the % of 1RM, e.g., squat, deadlift, and bench press. Once the 1RM is added to the routine, the exercises look as follows:
Enter Your Maxes Here:
Squat: 100 kg
Bench Press: 100 kgExcercise | RM | Reps | Sets | Weight
Squat (50%) 4 1 50
Squat (60%) 4 4 60…2 votes -
Allow us to copy and schedule a previous Workout of the Day into a main program
Sometimes you'll create a Workout of the Day that turns out to be a gem. It would be handy if I could simply import that workout into a training program but right now, I need to re-build that workout from scratch. It won't even let me re-schedule that workout for the same client so that we can repeat the workout.

updated videos
Some of the pre made videos are not good in terms of technique, RDL's for example have the knees completely locked out in your videos and BB high pulls the hands are way too close (shoulder width) so wont transition well into a BB clean like it should to name a couple. I realize we can make our own but might be cool to have an elite level power lifter do deadlift videos and elite level olympic lift do oly vids, a pilates instructor to do a few positions etc

Have a calendar for challenges
I'd love to be able to have a calendar specific for each challenge so that I can program workouts or have auto messages go out to the challengers.

Workout Feedback Overhaul with Mental Health Feedback, Screenshots, and Post Feedback Editing
In order to bring some much needed attention to the workout feedback section.
Adding a mental health feedback section where clients can give feedback on how they are feeling for that day. Having a pseudo
standardized way of giving feedback on how they felt can go a long way to better understand how easy or hard the workouts are.Sometimes when we you are out of breath and sweating you may not leave the most reliable feedback if you accidentally submit the feedback before you are ready to submit. Thus adding the ability to go back and edit the feedback…

Auto suggestions for exercise substitutes
It would be great if clients were given a number of “suggested exercises” if they weren't able to do the prescribed exercise in their workout. For example, if a client didn't have access to cables for a cable chest flye, the substitutes would provide alternative exercises for the chest.
It would mean that clients wouldn't need to remember additional names of exercises, and it would save time searching through the entire library for what to substitute in. They could just look, and pick an exercise they feel most familiar with.

Edit duration of program tags
Ability to edit the duration of program tags like we can for client auto tags. For example, I want to extend the duration of the program expiring tag from 1 week to 4 weeks, so I have an earlier reminder of them needing a new program.

Activity Manual stat input
Currently if I don't wear my fitness tracker I can't track my workout stats. I would like the ability to input manually my calories heart rate, distance intensity power output , avg. heart rate. For example if i do a HIIt Class i can only enter time and nothing else. I would like to be able to manually input my zones when I play basketball. or other.

Putting clients lasts lifts in the progression spreadsheet
when we are updating clients weights in the progression spreadsheet, it would be incredibly useful if the exercises listed in the 1st column had the clients last weights and reps in it. Pulling it from their exercise progression chart, So you don't have to flick between 2 tabs of a split screen.

We need to be able to build phases of a programme that are different durations. EG phase of 8 weeks, intensification phase of 4 weeks
We need to be able to build phases of a program that are different durations. EG an accumulation phase of 8 weeks, followed by an intensification phase of 4 weeks. Can currently only create phases of the same length of time

Highlight when sets are added via the 'add set' button
There are a lot of people asking for an option to delete sets when they're added by accidentally bumping the 'add set' button (multiple suggestions and upvotes).
It looks like the PM, Trevor, suggests just leaving it blank as it won't be saved. I guess this is fine, although it's a bit annoying if you bump the button a couple of times and just have to scroll past like a couple of extra added super sets.
My main concern is that if I bump the 'add sets' button, which is really easy to do, I don't know if I've accidentally…

In the planning stage, show how many times i have used each exercise with the client in the past
I write custom programs for every client, mostly using my own videos which I've uploaded. I would love a number)counter shoring how many times I have used that exercise with the client before. It's hard to remember which exercises I have used with which clients and how many times I have used it.

Populate placeholder rep/weight text with values from the last time the exercise was done
Currently, the only way to see what reps/weights I used in the last workout is to navigate back to a day when I did that exercise. It would be nice if a workout had an exercise that was done before, the placeholder text for the reps/weights were populated with the values from the last time it was done.

TIME SCORING & LEADERBOARDS
TIME BASED WODs
I am a CrossFit Coach. We often program time-based workouts such as:
3 ROUNDS FOR TIME: 400m Row, 30 Air Squats, 20 PushUps, 10 Burpees, 10 PullUpsCan we add an input box for time scoring to be recorded?
This needs to be recalled next time that same workout is performed so that progress can be tracked
Can we add a daily leaderboard for athlete scoring and ranking within a group?2 votes -
VBT Prescriptions / Progression
Along with adding a feature to be able to prescribe loads based on 1rm, Id like to be able to prescribe loads based on velocity (a la VBT, or velocity-based training).
As a sport scientist, I use VBT and its and OBJECTIVE measure that can be great for fostering intrinsic motivation and intent to lift.This is a fun and easy way for clients to self regulate their loads while still attaining the desired training goal (i.e. strength, strength-speed, power, speed-strength, hypertrophy).

How to choose the best treadmill for walking?
Choosing a treadmill specifically for walking involves considering several key factors to ensure comfort, safety, and functionality:
Motor Power
For walking, you typically don't need as much horsepower as you would for running. A motor with around 2.0 to 3.0 horsepower is usually sufficient for walking speeds.Belt Size
Opt for a treadmill with a longer and wider belt to accommodate a comfortable walking stride. Look for dimensions around 55 inches long and 20 inches wide or larger.Speed Range
Ensure the treadmill offers a low-speed range suitable for walking. Most treadmills designed for home use will have speeds ranging…1 vote -
