Training
The Training tab is your workout logger, exercise library, personal records, and progress charts — everything for planning, running, and looking back on a session.
Log a session with Log workout: add exercises, then sets with reps and weight (or distance and time for cardio). OrientME automatically spots personal records — your best estimated one-rep max and top set. The Exercises library comes pre-filled and is filterable by muscle group, and you can add your own. When you finish a session you get one short summary — duration, total volume, how it compares with your last similar session, and any new records you just set. The first time you log an exercise there's nothing to beat yet, so the summary lists it under Baselines recorded instead of calling it a record — your next improvement on it is the real thing.
Exercise history. Tap any card under Personal records — or an exercise's name in the session summary — to open that exercise's history. You'll see a chart of your best estimated one-rep max in each session (so plateaus and dips show honestly, not just the highlights), with days you set a record marked by a slightly larger dot and the session's top set in the hover detail. Switch the window between 3M, 1Y, and All. Below the chart are your current bests, your full record timeline, and your last ten sessions — and if you have an active strength goal for that exercise, a quiet line shows how far along you are. If you don't have one yet, a Set a target link sits in that same spot: tap it to set a target weight for the lift right there, and the progress line takes its place. On the mobile app the same history is a full screen: open it from the Records section on the Training screen, a record's name in the session summary, or an exercise search result.
Repeat a session. Once you've logged a workout, Repeat last copies your most recent session — exercises and the sets you did — into a fresh entry dated today, so you just adjust the numbers and save. You can also hover any past workout and tap the ↻ repeat icon to redo that specific one. And you don't have to fill in everything — log just what you got to.
Last time, right where you type. Inside the editor, each exercise shows what you did last time — and those numbers also appear as faint placeholders in each set's fields, so the weight to beat is right under your cursor. Tap Fill from last on an exercise to copy them in and only type what changed.
Warm-up and drop sets. Click a set's number to change its type — it cycles from a normal set to a warm-up (shown as an amber W) to a drop set (the orange ↓) and back. During a live session, click the round set-number badge next to Set N to do the same for the set you're on. Warm-up sets are saved with your workout but don't count toward your personal records, your training volume, or the Weekly volume per-muscle set counts — so if you log warm-ups, those bars now show only your working sets; drop sets do count, and in a live session they start immediately with no rest. The ↓ Drop set button still adds a ready-made drop set — same reps at a reduced weight — in one tap.
Supersets. Click the link icon on an exercise to pair it with others — linked exercises share a colored SS-A badge, and each group gets its own color. In a live session a superset runs back-to-back: you do one set of each linked exercise with no rest in between, rest once at the end of the round, then start the next round. Unlink an exercise at any time; if that leaves a group with only one member, the group clears itself.
During a live session. The session walks you through one set at a time, with what you did last time shown right above the inputs — the set you're on is highlighted as the number to beat. If a workout program prescribes an effort level, it appears read-only as @RPE next to the set number. Tap Done and the rest timer starts: it remembers the rest length you picked last session, and it chimes with the same bell you chose for the meditation timer. While resting, a small ± row under the "Next" line lets you bump the upcoming set's weight or reps without touching the timer — "that felt easy, add 5" stays one tap. When you finish, the summary screen offers an optional feeling tag and a one-line note before saving — skip both freely. Only the sets you actually completed are saved, so a cut-short day never pads your records, and if you leave mid-session after completing sets, OrientME asks before discarding them. Starting an overdue planned workout logs it on the day you actually train — use the editor's date field if you really mean to back-date.
Exercise defaults. Every exercise can carry a default starting shape — sets × reps at a weight. You manage them in the Exercise library: each exercise card has a defaults row — click Set to add defaults, Edit to change them, or Clear defaults to remove them — and it shows when they were last updated. When you add an exercise to a workout it starts pre-filled: what you did last time wins when it exists, then your saved defaults, then a blank set — so defaults matter most for a movement you haven't logged yet. When the defaults are what pre-filled an exercise, its card in the editor shows the saved Default line.
Movement families and variants. Instead of a long flat list, exercises are grouped into movement families — one Bench Press card, one Chest Fly, one Row, and so on. When you add an exercise, tap a family and choose its variants (equipment like barbell, dumbbell, cable or machine; angle like incline or decline; grip; seated/standing; single-arm) and OrientME composes the exact exercise — "Incline Dumbbell Bench Press". Each variant keeps its own records and history, so your incline-dumbbell numbers never get mixed up with your flat-barbell ones. Pick any combination you like; if a family has no variants (most cardio, for example) it's added in one tap. Browse and add variants any time from the Exercise library, or create a fully custom exercise.
Standard templates are curated workout splits that ship with the app, shown as one row of cards — each carries a small chip with the split it belongs to (Push Pull Legs or All Muscle Groups 2x Weekly). They're read-only, so tap the ℹ️ info icon to see exactly which exercises, sets, and reps a template includes. Tap Start to begin a live session from one right away — a copy is dropped into My templates automatically, so you can tweak it for next time. Prefer to adjust first? The Duplicate button adds the copy without starting a session.
My templates are yours to change. Create one with New template (name it, add exercises, and pick a category from the dropdown), save any workout as a template with Save as template, or duplicate a standard and tweak it. Templates are grouped by category into collapsible sections, and each has the same info icon. Hit Start on a template to begin a session already filled in — adjust the weights and log it.
Categories keep your templates organized. Use Manage categories (next to New template) to add, rename, or remove them — they then appear in the category dropdown when you create or edit a template. A duplicated standard keeps its split name as its category, so it shows up grouped under that name — your managed category list itself only ever contains categories you created. Deleting a category never deletes its templates; they simply move to Uncategorized.
The Planner lets you schedule sessions ahead. Tap Schedule (or the calendar icon on a template), pick a date and time, and it's added to your planner. When the day comes, tap the ✓ check on the planner row to log it exactly as planned in one tap — any weights the plan left blank are filled in from the last time you did that exercise, so the log reflects what you actually lift. Or open the row, adjust your numbers, and hit Complete session. Either way it moves into your workout history and you get the session summary.
Plans aren't set in stone: hover a planner row and tap the ✎ pencil to edit or reschedule it — change the date, time, or exercises and save it as a plan again. A session whose day has passed shows an overdue tag so it's easy to spot. Sessions that belong to a program carry a small Wk 2 · program name chip, and a long list shows just the next seven rows — tap Show all to see the rest.
Workout programs
Programs are multi-week training plans — designed by coaches and athletes — that you can add to your planner in one setup. Each runs up to twelve weeks. You'll find them under Training → Programs.
Browsing. The Programs section lists what's available, each with the designer's name and the length (how many weeks, and days per week). Tap a program to see the designer, the goals it's built for and the equipment it needs, and a week-by-week breakdown of every session inside it.
Meet the designer. In a program's details, tap the designer's card to open their profile — a short bio, their credentials, links to follow them, and a list of the other programs they've built. Tap any of those to jump straight to it. On mobile, the coach's name appears under the title on your Active program card; tap it to open the same profile.
Setting one up. Tap Set up program to open a short walkthrough. You choose which day of the week — and an optional time — you'll do each session, pick a start date, and, if you like, swap out any exercise you can't do. Confirm, and your planner fills with every session of the program on the days you chose.
Swapping exercises. If you don't have a particular machine, swap that movement for one you can do and it's substituted across the whole program. You can review and change your substitutions any time from the active-program card, and revert to the original at any point — your already-logged sessions are never changed. A "swapped from …" note with a revert link appears on any exercise you've swapped.
Following along. An Active program card shows how far you are (for example, "Week 3 of 8"), your next session, and your overall progress. Tap the Next session row on the card to start it as a live workout right there, complete a planned session from the planner with one tap, or open it and log it just like any other workout.
Extending or ending. When you reach the end — or simply want to keep going — tap Extend to add another full cycle of the program to your planner. Tap End to clear the remaining planned sessions; your logged history stays exactly as it was.
