Short answer: Not directly—but you can still personalize your workouts.
Why You Can’t Add Exercises Freely
Every Moves workout is thoughtfully designed with input from physical therapists and other certified fitness professionals to make sure your training is safe, balanced, and effective. Sets, reps, rest periods, exercise selection, and progressions are all intentionally programmed to work together.
For specialized programs like Mom Moves and Postpartum Moves, we take that expertise even further. These programs are developed with a Doctor of Physical Therapy specializing in Pelvic Floor and Women’s Health, so the workouts are built with the specific needs of pregnancy and postpartum recovery in mind.
In other words, we’ve done the programming work for you. Adding exercises or creating your own workouts can change the balance, volume, or intent of the training.
We recommend sticking with the workouts as they’re programmed, but that doesn’t mean you have to do every exercise exactly as written. We’ve provided an alternate for every exercise so you can make adjustments based on the equipment you have access to, your mobility, injuries, or personal preference — while still following the structure our experts designed.
How You Can Personalize Your Workout
While you can’t add exercises from scratch, you can swap in exercises of your choice using the Alternate Exercise Library. This feature allows you to adjust movements based on equipment, mobility, injuries, or personal preference—without compromising your program’s integrity.
Steps to Swap Exercises:
Tap the 3-dot menu on any exercise.
Choose “Alternates”.
Select “More Alternates”.
Filter by muscle group or equipment.
Pick your preferred movement.
Click “Swap Exercise”.
Note: Swapping an exercise is not the same as adding a brand-new custom exercise. You can only replace an existing exercise with one from the Alternate Exercise Library, ensuring your workout remains balanced and aligned with the program.
This approach keeps your workouts effective while giving you flexibility and personalization.
