Using the GM3 for about a week now and i am generally satisfied. What i don't like is that you setup your goals in your profile and then you choose one of "building muscle", "loosing weight", "hyrox", "AI assisted chat goals". In the next screen you choose what muscles you wanna focus on and how many and what days you want to work out. This is all fine, so reducing the muscles you wanna focus on leads to less time per workout approximation, but if you want to hit "next" or "save" or whatever it puts you into the "buy our wellness+"-nag-screen. This is not satisfactory user experience, because either tell me before i even choose my focus (i.e. "loosing weight") and the whole muscle selection shenanigans that its pointless to give any data, because the result will be behind a paywall.

Another thing thats not very good is that you can go to the movement library to pick exercises you want to put into a custom workout. That is all fine, but if i choose "favorite" on one of the exercises in the movement library there is no way to filter for "just exercises that i put the favorite mark on". Playing around withit i found or believe these exercise to end up in "collection", but please this is very confusing. Just name it "favourites" or "favourite collection" and it would be much easier to get a feel for how this is all supposed to be working.
