How personal records work

Step by step

1. Tap Progress in the bar at the bottom, then Personal records. The row shows how many exercises already have a record.

   

2. On the Progress screen, scroll to Personal records. Loaded exercises come first, sorted by estimated 1RM.

3. Each record is measured by the type of exercise: 1RM est. for loaded exercises, Most reps in a set for bodyweight ones, Longest time for holds and Longest distance for cardio.

4. Tap the count of hidden records at the end of the list to see them all. Tap a record to open the exercise page.

5. During a workout, when a set beats a record, Gym+ shows New record with the kind of mark, such as heaviest load or most reps at this load. At the end of the workout, the summary lists the New records.

   

Common problems

A record is wrong

Fix the set on the day of the workout. Open the day in the Consistency calendar, tap the pencil on the exercise and fix the reps or the weight. See How to see and fix your workout history.

The list says there are no records

Records show up as you log sets in finished workouts. On loaded exercises, a set with no load or no reps does not count as a record.
