If your desired exercise is not available in the MyFitCoach app, you can easily create it yourself. In this article, we show you how to create and manage new exercises.

Here's how to create a new exercise:


Option 1: Via the Training Tab

  • Click on the 3-dot menu at the top in the Training tab and then on "Own Exercises" > "Create".

  • Name your exercise and select in the "Comparison Exercise" line the exercise that is similar to your new exercise in terms of execution, target muscle, and/or movement pattern. This is necessary in order to be able to take the exercise into account in terms of volume, intensity, and many other factors.

  • Click on "Save" and add the exercise using the "Add Exercise" button in the training session.

Option 2: In the training overview of the relevant workout

  • Click on "Add Exercise" after selecting the relevant workout.

  • Click on "Create" at the top.

  • Name your exercise and select in the "Comparison Exercise" line the exercise that is similar to your new exercise in terms of execution, target muscle, and/or movement pattern. This is necessary in order to be able to take the exercise into account in terms of volume, intensity, and many other factors.

  • Click on "Save" and add the exercise by searching for its name.


Here's how you manage your created exercises:

  • Click on the 3-dot menu at the top in the Training tab and then on "Own Exercises".

  • By swiping from right to left or via the 3-dot menu, you can completely delete the created exercise.

  • You can edit the exercise afterwards via the 3-dot menu.

Note: If you delete an exercise, all training data related to this exercise will also be deleted.
