A consistent number of training days per week helps MyFitCoach (MFC) build the most effective plan for you. If your schedule occasionally changes, don’t edit your training profile every week. Use the guidance below instead.
If you have fewer sessions than planned this week
Option A: Carry it over this week.
Do the missed workout on a rest day—only if recovery allows. Expect your weekly rhythm to shift.
Option B: Move it to next week.
If the week is already packed or you’re fatigued, finish the week as-is and perform the missed workout first next week. Your rhythm will shift, which is fine.
If you want to add an extra session this week
Complete all scheduled workouts for the current week, finish the training week, then start Workout 1 of the next week. Your rhythm will shift by one session.
Why we suggest a stable baseline
MFC currently doesn’t include a special feature for changing the number of training days from week to week. Frequent profile edits can lead to constant plan recalculations and an unstable training rhythm. For best results, pick a realistic number of weekly sessions and keep it consistent long term. If your life schedule truly changes, update your profile once and let MFC recalculate.
Practical tips to minimize disruption
Keep at least one rest day before repeating the same hard muscle group.
Avoid cramming two very heavy lower-body days back-to-back if you’re carrying sessions over.
If you stack sessions, consider trimming volume or intensity slightly to maintain quality and recovery.
We’d love your feedback on handling variable schedules—your input helps us prioritize future features.
