How the workout builder works
Whether you want a quick extra session or full control over your training, the builder covers it in three steps.
Pick your exercises
Choose from over 1,000 exercises in the library, or create entirely custom exercises of your own when a movement you train is missing.
Shape the session
Arrange the exercises and adjust the details, like rest times and rep ranges, until the session matches exactly what you want to train.
Use it in your program
Add your custom workout to your training program, or edit any generated workout instead. Custom sessions are guided and tracked like everything else, including the Workout Player and your statistics.
Can I edit the workouts in my generated program?
Yes, every existing workout can be edited to fit your needs. Swap exercises, change rest times and rep ranges, and add or remove movements. This makes the plan generator and the builder complementary: the app does the programming groundwork, and you fine-tune wherever you have preferences.
Can I create my own exercises?
Yes. If a movement you train is not among the over 1,000 exercises in the catalog, you can create it as a custom exercise and use it in any workout. Custom exercises are tracked like built-in ones, so your training log stays complete. This is also the way to add activities like running, cycling, or jump rope to your week.
Why build custom workouts if the app generates a program?
Because training is personal. Some people want a generated plan plus one self-designed session per week; others want full control over everything. The builder supports the whole spectrum: generated workouts stay editable, self-made workouts plug into the same player, tracking, and statistics, and you can mix both freely in one program.
