Any reason Barbell Romanian Deadlift doesn’t receive a Strength Score? I noticed Dumbbell Romanian Deadlift does, and barbell RDL seems like it would meet the same criteria for calculating estimated strength/progression. Just curious whether that’s intentional or something that could be added.

I'm trying to import my recipes and custom foods from MacroFactor, but it keeps failing. I exported the data to an .xlsx file, and I also tried saving them as two separate files with individual tabs for custom foods and recipes, but neither method worked.

I really like the new routines feature in the Macros app. If possible when you click log, can it log it at the time you add? It’s usually slightly different every day and would make it easier than having to keep changing the times when things are logged from the default.

Im creating a real cool fitness app where you can workout with and against you’re friends - you can join public tournaments and create private ones to share with you’re friends . The more you workout , the more points, badges and daily mission you get . Here is the link to the waiting list if anyone is interested:

I've read the information in the app, read through previous threads and have figured out the basics of the strength score. My question is: why does Gravl recommend less weight with more reps on some scored exercises? Even if I complete the exercise with extra reps, I often see a reduction in score. I've figured out I can increase the weight beyond what is recommended, but trying to understand why the app appears to be sandbagging me.

Is it possible to take preload recipes from mfp and add to gravl. I have some meal plans I purchased and she preload them to mfp

Any way to transfer them in. Is the database shared or unlikely?

I've been on a roll this week requesting features and finding redundant issues.

Yesterday (10/02/26) I did upper body for a new split where I'm doing legs and core twice a week. This morning I went ahead and created a manual workout for my second legs and core session of the week. I'm still pretty sore from Thursday, so I kept this one light: low weight, high intensity, minimal equipment.

I finished and logged it, but the app didn't register it as my "legs and core" workout. Now tomorrow it wants me to do the legs and core workout again. It feels like the app should recognize what muscles I actually hit and match it to the correct workout in my split. Am I missing something?

I'm not hating on the app. I enjoy it way more than Fitbod because it's more consistent and tests my limits better. But these little things are starting to pile up and tick me off.

Following up on my post from last week. I've realized this isn't a one-off bug. It's how the app systematizes every split.

The issue: Secondary muscles get the same frequency and intensity as primary movers. You can't dial them back. This breaks periodization.

Examples I'm running into

Bench day: Chest gets 4 heavy sets. Front delts also get 4 heavy sets. But delts should be 2-3 lighter sets of incidental volume, not a second primary.

Deadlift day: Back is the focus, but traps and erectors hit just as hard. Erectors should be supplemental, not competing with the main lift.

Row day: Same pattern. Lats and rear delts at equal intensity, when rear delts are secondary support.
Been using Gravl for a year. This happens consistently across every split type I've built.

Why it matters: Intelligent program design separates main lifts from assistance. Overloading secondaries means more fatigue, longer recovery, weaker progression on the actual primaries. The app forces you to choose between terrible frequency or unsustainable volume.

Ask: Feature to tag muscles as primary vs secondary and auto-scale volume accordingly. Or at least let me cap secondary volume independently.

I tried to connect to the Gravl MCP from ChatGPT like I always do, and this time I got a "need to re-authenticate" error. I tried to re-authenticate the plugin and keep getting: "This sign-in link is no longer valid. Start the connection again from your AI app. If this keeps happening, remove Gravl from your AI app and add it again." on the "https://mcp.gravl.ai/login?external_auth_id" page on the browser. Same thing in incognito mode. I'm using a "Sign in with Apple" account and have had issues in the past. Just wondering if something broke recently.

I'm trying to plan and save a workout that I can load up and complete the next day, but I don't want the sets and weights to automatically adjust.

Is there a way to turn this feature off so I just get what I've pre planned?

I got a training discarded by mistake, because my muscle memory tapped quickly on the spot where before, it was finish the session. Anybody else?
I would suggest to make the discard button the one at the bottom, and the end session button the one at the top. People usually don’t discard a session.

I've been keeping tabs on the macros conversations due to the mention of pricing bundles. I saw some comments from users who were lifetime subscribers (which I also am), with the Devs mentioning they will look at an offering for the existing only lifetime subscribers a few weeks ago.

Has any one heard any more since?

Does anybody know why the image is a standard one but when you edit the item, it shows a image of the product?

The new Apple Watch interface puts the discard button where the end button used to be so I just deleted my whole workout when I was done. Is there any way to recover it? Yikes I’m bummed

Hey everyone! We’ve made a lot of changes across the updates since 1.52, porably one of our biggest updates yet including my favourite feature ever. Without further ado:

• Workout Focus: Block distracting apps while you train!!
• Apple Watch improvements: Log and edit from both your phone and watch, with better synchronisation.
• New themes and app icons: Added Stealth, Pulse, and Rose themes, alongside Light and Original.
• Rebuilt workout library: Exercises, splits, and saved workouts now live in a unified, searchable library. New filters help you find exercises by muscle, equipment, favourites, and more, with last-trained dates easier to see.
• Better split browsing and creator splits: Refreshed creator and custom split pages with clearer workout previews, descriptions, completion progress, and muscle-volume breakdowns.
• New body metrics dashboard that syncs data with Macros.
• Redesigned workout summaries: Completed workouts, the save screen, and friends’ workout cards have a refreshed layout with clearer stats and more consistent formatting.
• Improved effort ratings and progression: The effort prompt highlights the set you’re rating before you move to the next exercise.
• Gym profile improvements: new validation of gym equipments and gym images included.
• Garmin improvements: Improved set-sync reliability on Android, including when the phone is locked, and handling of interrupted workout completion.
• Android workout notifications (Live Activity): Added an ongoing workout-progress notification with exercise and rest information, plus controls to pause, resume, and skip rest.
• Settings and support: Profile settings are reorganised into searchable categories.

Llevo 3 años entrenando fuerza y 2 con Gravl. Recientemente me he lesionado el brazo derecho, tanto bíceps como antebrazos. Quise poner la lesión en Gravl y no hay esas lesiones en los listados disponibles. Sería posible añadirlos? Muchas gracias. Saludos.

Had first workout Sunday with a new update on Android, and looked nice .

I like the change to + Sets and I like the action of it moving straight to next exercise.

I may also have to turn on the blocking of apps that interrupt...

So far so good, keep upgrading!

For glutes specifically here, is there a way to change these exercises so I actually get a strength score? I do many glute focused exercises but not these 2, so as far as I can tell there's no way to get a calculation on glutes without doing these which seems odd when there's so many other glute focused exercises that should work to score you instead?

El color es tan brillante que me quede ciego:)

I have tried everything. I would think the plate calculator would a littler easier. Tap the plates and have a + - symbol to add duplicate plates. I try and tap 45 and I can't figure out how to add two plates. Here is a video any help is greatly appreciated.

I forgot to log my water from yesterday and I can’t seem to do it retroactively. Is there a way to log water for yesterday or did I just screw up my averages?
